  • High-resolution CO and radio imaging of ULIRGs: extended CO structures, and implications for the universal star formation law 

    Bothwell, M. S., S. C. Chapman, L. Tacconi, Ian Smail, et al. 2009. "High-resolution CO and radio imaging of ULIRGs: extended CO structures, and implications for the universal star formation law." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 405(1): 219.
    We present high spatial resolution (0.4", ~3.5 kpc) PdBI interferometric data on three ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) at z~2: two submillimetre galaxies and one submillimetre faint star forming radio galaxy. The ...
  • Molecular Gas in Submillimetre-Faint, Star-Forming Ultraluminous Galaxies at z>1 

    Casey, C. M., S. C. Chapman, R. Neri, F. Bertoldi, et al. 2009. "Molecular Gas in Submillimetre-Faint, Star-Forming Ultraluminous Galaxies at z>1." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 415:2723.
    [abridged] We present interferometric CO observations of twelve z~2 submillimetre-faint, star-forming radio galaxies (SFRGs) which are thought to be ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) possibly dominated by warmer ...
  • Spectroscopic Characterisation of 250um-Selected Hyper-Luminous Star Forming Galaxies 

    Casey, C. M., S. C. Chapman, Ian Smail, S. Alaghband-Zadeh, et al. 2010. "Spectroscopic Characterisation of 250um-Selected Hyper-Luminous Star Forming Galaxies." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 411:2739.
    We present near-infrared spectroscopic observations from VLT ISAAC of thirteen 250\mu m-luminous galaxies in the CDF-S, seven of which have confirmed redshifts which average to = 2.0 \pm 0.4. Another two sources of the 13 ...
  • SPT 0538-50: Physical conditions in the ISM of a strongly lensed dusty star-forming galaxy at z=2.8 

    Bothwell, M. S., J. E. Aguirre, S. C. Chapman, D. P. Marrone, et al. 2013. "SPT 0538-50: Physical conditions in the ISM of a strongly lensed dusty star-forming galaxy at z=2.8." Astrophysical Journal, 779 (1):67
    We present observations of SPT-S J053816-5030.8, a gravitationally-lensed dusty star forming galaxy (DSFG) at z = 2.7817, first discovered at millimeter wavelengths by the South Pole Telescope. SPT 0538-50 is typical of ...
  • A survey of molecular gas in luminous sub-millimetre galaxies 

    Bothwell, M. S., Ian Smail, S. C. Chapman, R. Genzel, et al. 2012. "A survey of molecular gas in luminous sub-millimetre galaxies." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 429(4): 3047.
    We present the results from a survey for 12CO emission in 40 luminous sub-millimetre galaxies (SMGs), with 850um fluxes of S850 = 4 - 20 mJy, conducted with the Plateau de Bure Interferometer. We detect 12CO emission in ...
