CO(J=6-5) Observations of the Quasar SDSS1044-0125 at z = 5.8
Abstract
We present a result of the quasar CO(J=6-5) observations of SDSSp J104433.04-012502.2 at z = 5.8. Ten-days observations with the Nobeyama Millimeter Array yielded an rms noise level of ~ 2.1 mJy/beam in a frequency range from 101.28 GHz to 101.99 GHz at a velocity resolution of 120 km/s. No significant clear emission line was detected in the observed field and frequency range. Three sigma upper limit on the CO(J=6-5) luminosity of the object is 2.8 x 1010 K km/s pc2, corresponding to a molecular gas mass of 1.2 x 1011 Solar Mass, if a conversion factor of 4.5 Solar Mass /(K km/s pc2) is adopted. The obtained upper limit on CO luminosity is slightly smaller than those observed in quasars at z=4-5 toward which CO emissions are detected.
