The great energy source of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) may be the accreting supermassive black holes of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) or intense...
Witnessing the Formation of Massive, Distant Galaxies in the (Sub)Millimeter Regime
In order to understand galaxy formation it is crucial to obtain sensitive observations of the emission of dust and molecular gas both of which constrain the on...
Witnessing the Violent, Merger-driven Formation of an Extremely Massive Galaxy 1.7 Gyr after the Big Bang
We combine near-infrared imaging in two bands from the Hubble Space Telescope with archival observations of molecular gas to study SDSS J160705.16+533558.6...
