Molecular Gas at High Redshift
The Early Universe Molecular Emission Line Galaxies (EMGs) are a population of galaxies with only 36 examples that hold great promise for the study of galaxy formation and evolution at high redshift. The classification, luminosity of molecular line emission, molecular mass, far-infrared (FIR) luminosity, star formation efficiency, morphology, and dynamical mass of the currently known sample are...
متن کاملCold Gas at High Redshift
We discuss the current observational and theoretical issues concerning cold gas at high redshift and present simulations showing how a number of observational issues can be resolved with planned future instrumentation.
متن کاملMolecular Gas in High Redshift Qsos
We review cm and mm observations of thermal molecular line emission from high redshift QSOs. These observations reveal the massive gas reservoirs (1010 to 1011 M⊙) required to fuel star formation at high rates. We discuss evidence for active star formation in QSO host galaxies, and we show that these high redshift, FIR-luminous QSOs follow the non-linear trend of increasing LF IR/L (CO) with in...
متن کاملMolecular Gas in High-Redshift Submillimeter Galaxies
We present observations of the luminous population of high-redshift sub-mm galaxies taken at the OVRO Millimeter Array. Studies of submm galaxies are vital to our understanding of the formation and early evolution of galaxies since this population could account for a significant fraction of the total amount of star formation and AGN activity at high redshift. We discuss the CO detections for SM...
متن کاملDeuterium and Helium Absorption at High Redshift: Mapping the Abundance, Density and Ionization of Primordial Gas
Spectra of quasars at high redshift with high resolution and high signal-to-noise allow in favorable circumstances detection of absorption by deuterium and ultimately measurement of its primordial abundance. Ultraviolet spectra of high redshift quasars allow measurement of absorption by the most abundant cosmic absorber, singly ionized helium, thereby mapping gas even in the most rarefied cosmi...
