Data for The Quasar Feedback Survey: characterising CO excitation in quasar host galaxies
This data release is for the publication: The Quasar Feedback Survey: characterising CO excitation in quasar host galaxies by Molyneux et al. (2023). This has been accepted for publication in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
This work looks at the CO emission lines for Type 2 quasars at š§ < 0.2 from the Quasar Feedback Survey (with [O III] luminosities of L[O III] > 1042.1 erg/s). CO transitions (Jš¢š = 1, 2, 3, 6, 7) from APEX and ACA data are used to explore the CO spectra line distributions. These are also compared to the ionised gas emission line kinematics using the [O III] emission-line profiles from MUSE data.
This data release contains one large data with all of the measurements presented in the paper plus all of the spectra covering the CO transitions and [O III] transition used to make these measurements.
