3 Science Case (1) [CII] Wang et al. detection z = 6.0 As can be seen in the previous page, we can expect the detection of [CII] at high significance even at z > 6 (it s so bright!). 1σ = 0.5 t~1hr, # of antenna~20 rotation Although, the detection of [CII] itself can have a high priority,,, Figure 1. We show 1900 GHzet(158 µm) continuum A) and moment maps (as labelled; panels B D) of the [C II] line of J The grey dashed Wang al. 2013, ApJ, 773, (panel 44 contours show the continuum profile in each panel (the colour-scale and contours in panel A are equivalent). The filled grey ellipse indicates the shape and orientation of the synthesized beam (analogous to point spread function in optical/ir observations). The emission shown in panels (C) and (D) is restricted to regions where the S/N in the [C II] data cube is greater than 4. How large is the spatial extent?? - typically, it shows a compact (a few One theory put forth to explain the large blueshift in broad, highkpc) SF-region. ionization lines like C IV is commonly referred to as the disc-wind J double-horn rotating disk Kimball et al. 2015, MNRAS, 452, 88 Figure 2. ALMA detection of [C II] line in J The rms variation (determined from line-free channels) is approximately 2 mjy. Observed model (Sulentic, Marziani & Dultzin-Hacyan 2000b; Richards et al. 2011). According to this picture, the line is emitted from a radial outflow whose far side is obscured by the accretion disc, and thus only the blueshifted component is visible. The wind may arise from the disc itself. We wish to emphasize this caveat to future ALMA observers: in the submillimetre regime, such velocity offsets can amount to shifts of 1 GHz in the observed frame, potentially moving a targeted submillimetre line halfway across one of ALMA s 2-GHz-wide spectral windows. If the redshift of a QSO is known only from the (restframe) UV lines, optical emission lines, we therefore recommend that ALMA observers place multiple spectral windows alongside 3 each other to allow for an unknown, but potentially quite large, shift Does the [CII]-emitting gas show a rotating motion? Or, highly turbulent motion (e.g., merger)?? - many works assume bulge-like structure, but there is no necessity for that assumption (it can be disky).

7 Science Case (3) AGN feedback as gas outflows multiple-outflow? Cicone et al. 2015, A&A, 574, 14 Recently, an extended (~30 kpc) massive cold gas outflow of a few 100 Msun/yr was found in J at z = 6.4! Detecting the rather faint wing component requires a quite high sensitivity and a wide bandwidth ALMA! 7

8 Sub-kpc imaging of bright quasar host galaxies at z~7 B. Venemans, F. Walter, R. Decarli, L. Zschaechner, E. Banados, and E. P. Farina; accepted for ALMA Cycle 3 High redshift quasars are likely hosted by massive and luminous galaxies in the early universe. Recently we discovered several bright quasars at 6.5<z<7.1, providing a unique opportunity to study the physical properties of massive galaxies at z~7. Our ALMA Cycle 1 and PdBI data of 5 of these sources already revealed strong [CII] emission and far-infrared (FIR) continua. These are the only objects currently known at z>6.5 with bright [CII] emission. Here we propose to obtain followup observations of this small sample at sub-kpc resolution (0.7 kpc or ~0.12") to, for the first time, address key aspects that cannot be answered with the available data: Utilising the unique capabilities of ALMA, we will be able to (1) constrain the morphology and kinematics of the emission line gas, (2) produce a map of the star formation as traced by the FIR, (3) look for possible recent merger events, (4) search for infall/outflow signatures and (5) derive a well-constrained dynamical mass. Observations of this small sample will thus greatly enhance our knowledge of and provide first statistics on the properties of the earliest massive galaxies when the universe was only ~800 Myr old. 8

9 After that (i.e., cycle 5 or later) CO SLED No strong difference from local ones Wang et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 699 Nagao et al. 2012, A&A, 542, L34 We will continue to observe other lines such as multi-transition CO, other fine structure lines such as [NII]. constrain gas excitation conditions; metallicity measurements of QSO-host galaxies Going to higher resolution is of course a choice. 9

10 After that (i.e., cycle 5 or later) [CII] J z=6.53 H2O(!?) High abundance of water vapour could exist in galaxies with extremely low metallicity (1e-3 solar) expected for the first generation of galaxies!! Banados et al. 2015, ApJ, 805, L8 Does this indicate high metal around the AGN, but low metal in its host? Correct interpretation of H2O requires multi-transition analysis of this molecule. 10
