We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of an intrinsically radio-bright (L 1.4 GHz = (1.7 ± 0.1) × 1025 W Hz−1) and infrared luminous (L IR ≈ 1013 L ⊙) galaxy at z = 2.6. The infrared-to-radio luminosity ratio, q = 1.8,... Read More about A magnified view of circumnuclear star formation and feedback around an active galactic nucleus at z = 2.6.

Journal Article

The galaxies found in optical surveys fall in two distinct regions of a diagram of optical colour versus absolute magnitude: the red sequence and the blue cloud, with the green valley in between. We show that the galaxies found in a submillimetre sur... Read More about The causes of the red sequence, the blue cloud, the green valley, and the green mountain.

Testing star formation laws in a starburst galaxy at redshift 3 resolved with ALMA (2018)
Journal Article

Using high-resolution (sub-kiloparsec scale) data obtained by ALMA, we analyse the star formation rate (SFR), gas content, and kinematics in SDP 81, a gravitationally lensed starburst galaxy at redshift 3. We estimate the SFR surface density (ΣSFR) i... Read More about Testing star formation laws in a starburst galaxy at redshift 3 resolved with ALMA.

Modelling high resolution ALMA observations of strongly lensed highly star forming galaxies detected by Herschel (2018)

Modelling high resolution ALMA observations of strongly lensed highly star forming galaxies detected by Herschel. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 476(4), 4383-4394. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty513

We have modelled ∼0.1 arcsec resolution ALMA imaging of six strong gravitationally lensed galaxies detected by the Herschel Space Observatory. Our modelling recovers mass properties of the lensing galaxies and, by determining magnification factors, i...

With the advent of wide-area submillimetre surveys, a large number of high-redshift gravitationally lensed dusty star-forming galaxies have been revealed. Because of the simplicity of the selection criteria for candidate lensed sources in such survey...
