Additional information

Ivison was the co-PI (with Genzel) of the IRAM programme that obtained the CO imaging upon which the high-resolution imaging presented here builds. He was also responsible for the deep radio imaging that was used to identify counterparts for optical spectroscopic observations to determine the redshifts of the submillimetre galaxy (SMG) sample, which in turn allowed the CO imaging described here. He was responsible for much of the section (and data) describing how SMGs are most often found during a major merger or interaction.
