SDSS J083942.11+380526.3 is an Iron Low-ionization Broad Absorption Line (FeLoBAL) quasar at z = 2.3, and Aoki et al. (2006) recently found the presence of an H alpha absorption line in the broad H alpha emission line. Motivated by an idea…

We report the detection of CO molecular line emission in the z=4.5 millimeter-detected galaxy COSMOS_J100054+023436 (hereafter: J100+0234) using the IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer (PdBI) and NRAO's Very Large Array (VLA). The CO(4-3)…

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…

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 with the IRAM interferometer at 3mm of J=5-4 CO line in the radio quiet quasar BRI1335-0415 at redshift of z=4.41. After BR1202-0725 at z=4.69 (Ohta etal 1996, Omont etal 1996a), this is the second detection of CO at…

We present Plateau de Bure Interferometer observations of far infra-red emission lines in BRI 0952-0115, a lensed quasar at z=4.4 powered by a super-massive black hole (M_BH=2x10^9 M_sun). In this source, the resolved map of the [CII]…

Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array we have detected CO(1-0) and CO(5-4) from TNJ0924-2201 at z=5.2, the most distant radio galaxy known to date. This is the second highest redshift detection of CO published so far. The CO(1-0) is…
