Scientific paper

We report observations of the CO(6-5) Line in the extraordinary infrared luminous galaxy 10214+4724 at z = 2.3 with a lumnosity of 10(14) Lsun . This sub-millimeter line traces warm dense molecular gas characteristic of star forming molecular cloud cores. We also report the observation of thermal continuum radiation from dust, at an observed wavelength of 1.3 mm corresponding to a rest wavelength of 400 microns. These observations lead to a model for 10214+47 as a Primeval Molecular Galaxy powered by star formation in dense molecular gas.
