Molecular Emission from a Galaxy Associated with a z ∼ 2.2 Damped Lyα Absorber

Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, we have detected CO(3−2) line and far-infrared continuum emission from a galaxy associated with a high-metallicity ([M/H] = −0.27) damped Ly α absorber (DLA) at z DLA = 2.19289. The galaxy is located 3.″5 away from the quasar sightline, corresp...
