THE REDSHIFT AND NATURE OF AzTEC/COSMOS 1: A STARBURST GALAXY AT <i>z</i> = 4.6
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Based on broadband/narrowband photometry and Keck DEIMOS spectroscopy, we report a redshift of z = 4.64 +0.06 −0.08 for AzTEC/COSMOS 1, the brightest submillimeter galaxy (SMG) in the AzTEC/COSMOS field. In addition to the COSMOS-survey X-ray to radio data, we report observations of the source with Herschel /PACS (100, 160 μm), CSO/SHARC II (350 μm), and CARMA and PdBI (3 mm). We do not detect CO(5 → 4) line emission in the covered redshift ranges, 4.56–4.76 (PdBI/CARMA) and 4.94–5.02 (CARMA). If the line is within this bandwidth, this sets 3σ upper limits on the gas mass to ≲8 × 10 9 M ☉ and ≲5 × 10 10 M ☉ , respectively (assuming similar conditions as observed in z ∼ 2 SMGs). This could be explained by a low CO-excitation in the source. Our analysis of the UV–IR spectral energy distribution of AzTEC 1 shows that it is an extremely young (≲50 Myr), massive ( M * ∼ 10 11 M ☉ ), but compact (≲2 kpc) galaxy, forming stars at a rate of ∼1300 M ☉ yr −1 . Our results imply that AzTEC 1 is forming stars in a "gravitationally bound" regime in which gravity prohibits the formation of a superwind, leading to matter accumulation within the galaxy and further generations of star formation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
