We present ALMA 2-mm continuum and CO (2-1) spectral line imaging of the gravitationally lensed z=0.654 star-forming/quasar composite RX J1131-1231 at 240-400 mas angular resolution. The continuum emission is found to be compact and…
We present Northern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) CO(2-1) maps of the z=0.4418 cluster-central QSO IRAS 09104+4109, which trace ~4.5x10^10 Msol of molecular gas in and around the galaxy. As in many low redshift cool core clusters, the…
We investigate the nature of CO emission from z~6 quasars by combining non-LTE radiative transfer calculations with merger-driven models of z~6 quasar formation that arise naturally in LCDM cosmological simulations. We consider four model…
Aims: The inner regions of high-mass protostars are often invisible in the near-infrared. We aim to investigate the inner gaseous disc of IRAS11101-5829 through scattered light from the outflow cavity walls. Methods: We observed the…
We imaged with ALMA and ARGOS/LUCI the molecular gas and the dust and stellar continuum in XID2028, an obscured QSO at z=1.593, where the presence of a massive outflow in the ionized gas component traced by the [O III]5007 emission has been…
We present new results uncovered by a re-analysis of a Chandra observation of the gravitationally lensed, low-ionization broad absorption line (LoBAL) quasar H 1413+117. Previous analyses of the same Chandra observation led to the detection…
We report a CO(3-2) detection of 23 molecular clouds in the extended ultraviolet (XUV) disk of the spiral galaxy M83 with ALMA. The observed 1kpc^2 region is at about 1.24 times the optical radius (R25) of the disk, where CO(2-1) was…
Using the IRAM interferometer, we have observed the nearby starburst galaxy M82 with a 4.2" resolution (~70 pc) in the 1->0 line of 13CO and in the 2.6-mm continuum. The spatial distribution of the 13CO line shows the same gross features as…
12CO 1-0,2-1,4-3,7-6, and 13CO 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2 line was mapped with angular resolutions of 13" - 22" toward the nuclear region of starburst galaxy M82. The difference of lobe spacings in submillimeter (~15") and millimeter (~26") lines…
We investigate gravitational lens models for the quadruply-lensed Cloverleaf BAL QSO H1413+1143 based on the HST WFPC/WFPC2 astrometric and photometric data of the system by Turnshek et al. and the HST NICMOS-2 data by Falco et al. The…
We present results of sub-arcsec ALMA observations of CO(2-1) and CO(5-4) toward a massive main sequence galaxy at z = 1.45 in the SXDS/UDS field, aiming at examining the internal distribution and properties of molecular gas in the galaxy.…
We present observations of CO overtone bandhead emission toward four massive Young Stellar Objects (spectral type O6--B5). The high signal-to-noise ratio K-band spectra were obtained with VLT-ISAAC at a resolution of 30 km/s, sufficient to…
We detected with the IRAM interferometer the lines of CO(4-3) and CO(9-8) from the recently-discovered broad absorption line quasar APM 08279+5255. The molecular lines are at a redshift of 3.911, which we take to be the true cosmological…
Young circumstellar disks that are still embedded in dense molecular envelopes may differ from their older counterparts, but are historically difficult to study because emission from a disk can be confused with envelope or outflow emission.…
We present an analysis of the region IRAS 08589-4714 with the aim of characterizing the molecular environment. We observed the CO(3-2), ^{13}CO(3-2), C^{18}O(3-2), HCO+(3-2), and HCN(3-2) molecular lines in a region of 150" x 150", centered…
We present high-resolution (0.3") Very Large Array (VLA) imaging of the molecular gas in the host galaxy of the high redshift quasar PSS J2322+1944 (z=4.12). These observations confirm that the molecular gas (CO) in the host galaxy of this…
We present Submillimeter Array observations of the Herbig Ae star HD169142 in 1.3 millimeter continuum emission and 12CO J=2-1 line emission at 1.5 arcsecond resolution that reveal a circumstellar disk. The continuum emission is centered on…

We present ALMA band 3 observations of the CO(6-5), CO(7-6), and [CI] 369micron emission lines in three of the highest redshift quasar host galaxies at 6.6<z<6.9. These measurements constitute the highest-redshift CO detections to date. The…
