Sub-Kiloparsec ALMA Imaging of Compact Star-forming Galaxies at z ~ 2.5: Revealing the Formation of Dense Galactic Cores in the Progenitors of Compact Quiescent Galaxies
G. Barro et al 2016 ApJ 827 L32
ALMA dust continuum observations of six dusty star-forming galaxies at z ~ 2.5 suggest that strong nuclear starbursts transform larger, star-forming progenitors into compact quiescent galaxies.
