Scientific paper

The aim of the present proposal is to detect and resolve CO emission in high redshift lensed galaxies. These data will allow us to derive important information on the physics of the first massive systems in the early universe. Detecting and resolving CO emission will allow us to constrain molecular gas masses, metallicities, star formation rates and dynamical masses of young systems, therefore constraining the formation scenarios of massive galaxies in the early universe and their co-evolution with the growth of black-holes. Moreover, the comparison of the proposed CO observations with recently and soon-to-be obtained interferometric observations of the fine structure line of C+ at 157.74um, and the use of our radiative transfer models, will provide for the first time the physical and chemical properties of the gas across the high-z galaxies.
