Abstract
We report Northern Extended Millimeter Array CO(J = 3 − 2) observations of the dusty star-forming galaxy ACT-S J020941+001557 at z = 2.5528, which was detected as an unresolved source in the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) equatorial survey. Our spatially resolved spectral line data support the derivation of a gravitational lens model from 37 independent velocity channel maps using a pixel-based algorithm, from which we infer a velocity-dependent magnification factor 7-22 with a luminosity-weighted mean . The resulting source-plane reconstruction is consistent with a rotating disk, although other scenarios cannot be ruled out by our data. After correction for lensing, we derive a line luminosity , a cold gas mass , a dynamical mass , and a gas mass fraction . The line brightness temperature ratio of r3,1 1.6 relative to a Green Bank Telescope CO(J = 1 − 0) detection may be elevated by a combination of external heating of molecular clouds, differential lensing, and/or pointing errors.
