We examine the physical conditions of the molecular gas in the extremely red object (ERO), HR10 at z=1.44, as constrained by the recent detection of CO J+1 -> J, J=1, 4 lines. The line ratios of such widely spaced CO transitions are…
Infrared surveys have discovered a significant population of bright (K<19) extremely red (R-K>6) objects. Little is known about the properties of these objects on account of their optical faintness (R>24). Here, we report deep infrared…
We report the first detection of the lowest CO transition in a sub-millimetre bright galaxy and extremely red object (ERO) at z = 1.44 using the Very Large Array. The total J = 1 - 0 line luminosity of ERO J164502+4626.4 is (7+-1) x 10^{10}…
We report the detection of high excitation CO emission from the most distant quasar currently known, SDSS J114816.64+525150.3 (hereafter J1148+5251), at a redshift z=6.419. The CO (J=6-5) and (J=7-6) lines were detected using the IRAM…
Near-infrared surveys have revealed a substantial population of enigmatic faint galaxies with extremely red optical-to-near-infrared colours and with a sky surface density comparable to that of faint quasars. There are two scenarios for…
Serendipitously we have discovered a rare, bright submillimeter galaxy (SMG) with a flux density of 30 +/- 2 mJy at lambda=1.2mm, using MAMBO2 at the IRAM 30-meter millimeter telescope. Although no optical counterpart is known for…
We have detected redshifted CO (2-1) emission at 43 GHz and radio continuum emission at 1.47 and 4.86 GHz from the z = 4.4 QSO BRI 1335-0417 using the Very Large Array. The CO data imply optically thick emission from warm (>30 K) molecular…
We report the detection of a CO emission line from the submillimiter galaxy (SMG) GN10 in the GOODS-N field. GN10 lacks any counterpart in extremely deep optical and near-IR imaging obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based…
We report the detection of luminous CO(3-2) line emission in the halo of the z=2.6 radio galaxy (HzRG) TXS0828+193, which has no detected counterpart at optical to mid-infrared wavelengths implying a stellar mass < few x10^9 M_sun and…
We present moderate (1'') and high resolution (0.2'') observations of the CO(2-1) emission at 43 GHz, and radio continuum emission at 1.47 GHz, from the z=4.7 QSO BRI 1202-0725 and the z=4.4 QSO BRI 1335--0417 using the Very Large Array.…
We report the detection of the extremely red object (ERO), HR 10 (I-K= 6.5, z=1.44), at 4.9 and 6.1 microns (rest-frame) with ISOCAM, the mid-infrared (MIR) camera onboard the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). HR 10 is the first ERO…

We report the first detection of CO(1-0) emission from a submillimeter-selected galaxy, using the Green Bank Telescope. We identify the line in the spectrum of SMM J13120+4242 as a broad emission feature at z=3.408, with Delta(V_FWHM)=1040…
We present the HERA CO-Line Extragalactic Survey (HERACLES), an atlas of CO emission from 18 nearby galaxies that are also part of The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) and the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey (SINGS). We used the…
We present a search for CO emission in a sample of ten type-2 quasar host galaxies with redshifts of z=0.1-0.4. We detect CO(J=1-0) line emission with >=5sigma in the velocity integrated intensity maps of five sources. A sixth source shows…
We report sensitive imaging observations of the CO J=1-0 line emission in the powerful high-redshift radio galaxy 4C 41.17 (z=3.8) with the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA), conducted in order to detect the large concomitant H_2 gas reservoir…
We report a sensitive search for redshifted CO (3-2) emission from the weak radio galaxy 53W002 at z=2.394. Maps at resolutions of 3 arcsec and 235km/s show a significant emission peak within 0.5 arcsec of the optical and radio continuum…
