Journal ArticleDOI
High molecular gas fractions in normal massive star-forming galaxies in the young Universe
Linda J. Tacconi,Reinhard Genzel,R. Neri,Pierre Cox,Michael C. Cooper,K. Shapiro,Alberto D. Bolatto,Nicolas Bouché,Frédéric Bournaud,Andreas Burkert,Francoise Combes,Julia M. Comerford,Michael Davis,N. M. Förster Schreiber,Santiago García-Burillo,Javier Graciá-Carpio,Dieter Lutz,T. Naab,Alain Omont,Alice E. Shapley,Amiel Sternberg,Benjamin J. Weiner +21 more
TL;DR: A survey of molecular gas in samples of typical massive-star-forming galaxies at mean redshifts of about 1.2 and 2.3 reveals that distant star forming galaxies were indeed gas rich, and that the star formation efficiency is not strongly dependent on cosmic epoch.
Journal ArticleDOI

João Alves,Claude Bertout,Francoise Combes,Andrea Ferrara,Thierry Forveille,Tristan Guillot,Ralf Napiwotzki,Hardi Peter,S. N. Shore,Eline Tolstoy,Malcolm Walmsley +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a special feature on science results from the data that ESA Planck mission gathered over its first 15 months and which ESA and the Planck Collaboration released in March 2013 is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reinhard Genzel,Linda J. Tacconi,Javier Graciá-Carpio,Amiel Sternberg,Michael C. Cooper,Kristen L. Shapiro,Alberto D. Bolatto,Nicolas Bouché,Frédéric Bournaud,Andreas Burkert,Francoise Combes,Julia M. Comerford,Pierre Cox,Michael Davis,N. M. Förster Schreiber,Santiago García-Burillo,Dieter Lutz,Thorsten Naab,R. Neri,A. Omont,Alice E. Shapley,Benjamin J. Weiner +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the first systematic data sets of CO molecular line emission in z∼ 1 − 3 normal star-forming galaxies (SFGs) for a comparison of the dependence of galaxy-averaged star formation rates on molecular gas masses at low and high redshifts, and in different galactic environments.

TL;DR: In this paper, the IRAM Plateau de Bure high-z blue sequence CO 3-2 survey of the molecular gas properties in massive, main-sequence star-forming galaxies (SFGs) near the cosmic star formation peak is presented.
