Caption

CO J(2 ? 1) maps of the galaxy SDSS J1341?0321 averaged over 333 km s?1channels spanning ΔV = ± 1500 km s?1 (labels give channel centers) relative to the systemic redshift. Contours start at 2σ and are logarithmically spaced at 0.2 dex multiples of σ. Dashed contours are negative equivalents. The crosshair indicates the peak of the stellar emission in the HST/F814W imaging (Figure 1). Black ellipses show the fwhm of the synthesized beam.
