Additional information
This high-resolution CO study of submillimetre galaxies was proposed by a core group of 8 researchers, including Smail. Smail worked with the lead author of the paper on the interpretation of these results, including an extended visit to MPE in late 2006. Smail's contribution, reflected in my being listed as third author, focused on Sections 4 & 5, especially the discussion of the evolutionary context of the submillimetre galaxies, estimates of their duty cycle and space density and hence their relation to other high- and low-redshift galaxy populations.
