  1. Molecular Gas in (very) Distant Galaxies Fabian Walter (MPIA) F. Bertoldi, C. Carilli, P. Cox, K. Menten, A. Weiss

  2. History of the Universe recombination (z~1000) Cosmic ‘Dark Ages’ no stars/quasars Epoch of Reionization (EoR) mass buildup galaxies today

  3. High Redshift Galaxies • high redshift zoo: • - Lyman Break galaxies • - Lyman a galaxies • - Submm (‘SCUBA’) galaxies • - EROs • - DRG • - BzK galaxies • - faint blue galaxies • - Radio galaxies • - QSO host galaxies • science drivers: • - mass assembly / galaxy formation • - unified picture of galaxy evolution • - history of SFRD (‘Madau plot’) • / stellar mass assembly • - evolution(?) of MBH-s relation mm/submm observations: - detection/imaging of dust emission -> LFIR - detection/imaging of molecular lines -> molecular gas (‘SF reservoir’) -> dynamical masses -> major science drivers for all (sub)mm instruments

  4. Dust Imaging: The Magic of (Sub-)mm ~1mm obs: JCMT - SCUBA Zeus -> poster Hailey-Dunsheath CSO - SHARK-II Bolocam -> talk Glenn -> poster Aguirre 30m - MAMBO SMA PdBI ASTE APEX - LABOCA -> talk Menten L_FIR = 4x1012 x S250(mJy) L_sun for z=0.5 to 8 SFR = 1400 x S250(mJy)M_sun/yr (very high) M_dust = 1.4x108 x S250(mJy) M_sun

  5. Submm (‘SCUBA’) Sources Downes et al. 1999 Hughes et al. 1998 Source identification critical (usually through RC, Chapman ea. 03/04) 15” SCUBA SMA, Iono ea. 05, Peck ea. 05 -> poster

  6. Molecular Gas • first: detection of dust • molecular gas: fuel for SF • cold H2 invisible -> use CO as tracer • -> molecular gas mass, dynamical mass • n[CO(n-(n-1))] = (115GHz x n) / (1+z) z=6 -> CO(1-0): 3mm -> 2cm ! M51 - CO(2-1) SMA M 51 Sakamoto ea. 04 Matsushita ea. 04 • so far 2 major populations: - submm galaxies - QSO host galaxies [but also radio gal, BzK, ...] • problem: accurate z not known - faint in optical (submm gal.) - complex emission lines (QSO hosts)

  7. The Need for Bandwidth CO simulations (from M. Yun) EVLA/ALMA PdBI VLA • fractional BW: VLA: - 0.05 / 40GHz=0.001 [50MHz ~ 300 km s-1] PdBI: - 0.5 / 100GHz=0.005 --> (but upgrade ongoing) GBT: - 1.6 / 22 GHz = 0.08 SMA: - 2 / 230GHz = 0.01 CARMA: - 4 / 100 GHz= 0.04 EVLA: - 8 / 40GHz=0.2 ALMA - 8 / 100GHz=0.08 - 8 / 350GHz=0.02 future

  13. CO Line SEDs: gas excitation f(T) f(r) Multiple components 4.2 140 K 3.4 40 K 20 K 3.0 • turnover: measure of the CO excitation • shape is temperature/density dependent • shape: search for extended CO LVG input: n(H2), Tkin, [CO]/[H2]/dv/dr (fixed to 810-5 pc (km/s)-1) Weiss 2005

  14. Multiple CO Lines IRAM 30m CO SED survey (1, 2, 3mm bands) (Weiss, Walter, Downes, Henkel)

  15. CO(1-0) Transition: ‘cm’ Telescopes GBT z=4.7 z=3.9 Walter, Riechers, Knudsen ea. z=4.7 Effelsberg Bertoldi, Menten, Henkel ea.

  20. Resolution is Key ...so far - galaxy-integrated properties • ultimate goal: resolve CO emission spatially/kinematically • compare to optical/NIR imaging • dynamical masses! 1” ~ 7.5kpc [8.5 kpc @ z=2, 5.8 kpc @ z=6] -> need ~0.15” resolution to get 1 kpc resolution z=6.5 CO(7-6): 100 GHz (band 3): 4 km baselines z=2.5 CO(3-2): 100 GHz (band 3): 4 km baselines CO(6-5): 230 GHz (band 6): 1.8 km baselines -> high-res (0.15”) CO studies at high z need long baselines currently only doable with VLA!

  21. VLA imaging at 0.2” resolution BRI 1335-041 (z=4.407) - CO(2-1) observed at 7mm (Q band) 10 kpc VLA B array - 0.2” res. channel width: ~15 MHz (100 kms-1) Riechers, Walter, Carilli et al.

  22. ...out to the Epoch of Reionization...

  24. Molecular Gas @ End of EoR • molecular gas mass: • MH2 = 2 x 1010 Msun • mass in C and O: ~3x107 Msun • -> Pop III stars? CO(3-2) 46.6149 GHz continuum VLA z=6.419 Tkin=60K, nH2=104.5 cm-3 PdBI Walter et al. 2003 Bertoldi et al. 2003

  25. Resolved CO @ z=6.4 VLA B + C array; res.: 0.3” (~2 kpc) • assuming disk geometry: bmaj=3.6 kpc, vrot=280 kms-1 Mdyn~ 6 x 1010 Msun MBH=3 109 Msun -> Mbulge = few 1012 Msun? MBH-s breakdown? [Willot ea 2005: no companions -> low MDM, but M-s=f(z) ?] channel maps (width: 60 km s-1): Walter et al. 2004

  26. Other Tracers in 1148+5251 Carilli, Vanden Bout, Solomon, Walter ea. 2004 L(FIR) HCN(4-3) VLA Q-band (nondetection) Gao & Solomon 2004 L(HCN) L(HCN) CI (809 GHz) - observed at 109 GHz with PdBI: CII: (157 microns) - nondetection - JCMT (Bolatto ea. 2004) - detection (30m) (Maiolino et al. 2005) -> poster Bertoldi et al. 2005

  27. Summary • from ‘blobology’ -> real physics • molecular gas all the way back to the EoR! • CO SEDs: submm<->QSOs single T, no extended comp. high densities (not nec. high T) • CI, HCN detectable at high z • resolve high-z @ 1 kpc res. (~0.2”) • studies in very early universe (< 1Gyr): - metal enrichment, Mdyn - M-s(z) relation • so far: tip of the iceberg
