Co(1-0), Quasars, Molecular Gas

Scientific paper

We present preliminary results of an ongoing survey of the CO(1-0) line emission in a sample of quasars observed with the Plateau de Bure interferometer. The sample is extracted from a recent survey with the HST of nearby (z < 0.3) bright quasars (Bahcall et al. 1997). First results indicate that a large fraction of these quasars host considerable amounts of molecular gas (ranging from several 109 MSun to 5 1010 MSun. In one of the sources, PKS2349-014, we have detected the millimeter counterparts of the radio lobes seen at 21 cm. Bahcall, J. N., Kirhakos, S., Schneider, D. P., 1997, ApJ 479, 642
