A 158 μm [C II] LINE SURVEY OF GALAXIES AT<i>z</i>∼ 1-2: AN INDICATOR OF STAR FORMATION IN THE EARLY UNIVERSE

A 158 μm [C II] LINE SURVEY OF GALAXIES AT<i>z</i>∼ 1-2: AN INDICATOR OF STAR FORMATION IN THE EARLY UNIVERSE

We have detected the 158 {\mu}m [CII] line from 12 galaxies at z~1-2. This is the first survey of this important starformation tracer at redshifts covering the epoch of maximum star-formation in the Universe and quadruples the number of reported high z [CII] detections. The line is very luminous, between …
