| Abstract: |
Our new SMA ∼ 3″ resolution 900 μm image of the z = 4.7 QSO BR1202−0725 shows two submillimeter continuum components, consistent with previously published mm images. We further tentatively detect the redshifted [CII] line emission from the northern component BR1202N. The derived [CII]-to-FIR luminosity ratio (0.03%) is comparable to the ratios found in local ULIRGs. In addition, by analyzing archival Chandra data, we detect X-ray emission in both submm components. We conclude that BR1202−0725 is likely a pair of AGN host galaxies at z = 4.7, with both galaxies forming stars at exceedingly high rates. |
