    Abstract:
    NGC 253 is the one of the brightest molecular emitters outside the Galaxy and therefore the more suited candidate for deep molecular surveys.
    In this presentation I will summarize the current status of the ALCHEMI project which an ALMA large program consisting of an unbiased line survey from ALMA bands 3, 4, 6, and 7 (85-370 GHz), whose scope was extended this Cycle...

    Abstract:
    The results of previous ALMA observations have given us many valuable constraints for theoretical models of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) and the formation of planets within them. While only a few years ago such dust maps suggested the mere presence of embedded planets in PPDs, via the detection of rings and gaps in the continuum emission, I will argue in this talk...

    Abstract:
    "We present ALMA and MUSTANG2 observations of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect from massive galaxy clusters, revealing pressure substructure due to mergers and feedback that can only be inferred in X-ray."

    Invited talk

    Abstract:
    I will present recent modeling and observational work aimed at understanding the prevalence of dust-obscured star-formation in the first few Gyrs of the Universe’s history. Despite great effort to map the star-formation rate density in the rest-frame UV out to z~11, similar efforts to map rest-frame FIR have not kept apace. ALMA has begun to provide hints of the cosmic...

    Abstract:
    Finding and tracing the progenitors of today's massive clusters is challenging but observations of these rare systems are rich in information on cluster assembly, including brightest cluster galaxy formation, the build up of the red sequence and intra-cluster light, heating and metal-enrichment in the forming intra-cluster medium, the triggering and quenching of...

    Abstract:
    "Our current knowledge on the cosmic star formation history at z > 3 is mainly based on galaxies identified in the ultraviolet (UV) light. However, such galaxies are known to be biased against massive galaxies, most of which are dim in the UV due to dust obscuration and/or old stellar populations. This raises important questions as to what is the true abundance of...

    Abstract:
    "In recent years, ALMA has allowed for probing the the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect at unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution, thus opening a millimetre-wave window -- complementary to X-ray observations -- on the evolution of galaxy clusters and the physics of the intracluster medium. I will present recent results from high-resolution ALMA studies of the...

    Abstract:
    "A2C2S is a large survey of 122 normal star-forming galaxies observed in the [CII]-158µm line and continuum. It aims at understanding stars, gas and dust properties at a time of rapid galaxy maturation after the end of HI reionization, at redshifts 4<z<6. With A2C2S it becomes possible to trace the cosmic time evolution of the star formation rate from a complete census...

    Abstract:
    "How and when metal/dust enrichment happened in the epoch of reionization is one of the most fundamental questions in modern astronomy. Recent Planck results suggest an instantaneous reionization redshift of z = 7.7 ± 0.8, and the latest Hubble Space Telescope surveys have revealed strong evolution of the ultraviolet luminosity function from z ~ 10 to ~ 8, implying...

    Abstract:
    "The circum-galactic medium (CGM) is the location where galaxies directly interact with their environment through accretion and feedback events. These reservoirs can cover scales of several 100s of kpc, and are mostly studied in the optical through bright emission lines such as Lyman-alpha tracing their ionized gas. However, these optical/near-IR observations are...

    Abstract:
    "Measuring molecular gas mass in galaxies relies on the use of tracers as cold H2 is invisible. Historically CO has been the workhorse tracer as it is the second most abundant molecule in the ISM. However, it is expensive to observe large samples (100,000), and at high redshift the ground state J=1-0 transition is either inaccessible or extremely challenging to...

    Abstract:
    "The origin of the rise of the star formation rate density towards z~1-3, the peak of galaxy growth, could be a large supply of molecular gas for forming stars, or a mechanism which causes high efficiency in star formation, or a combination of the two of these. The ALMA Spectroscopic Survey (ASPECS) project has conducted a spectroscopic survey in the Hubble Ultra...

    Abstract:
    Thanks to the remarkable ALMA capabilities and the unique configuration of the Cosmic Snake galaxy behind a massive galaxy cluster, we could, for the first time, resolve molecular clouds down to 30 pc linear physical scales in a typical Milky Way progenitor at z=1.036 through CO(4-3) observations performed at 0.2'' angular resolution. We identify 17 individual giant...

    Abstract:
    We report the discovery of 10-kpc scale [CII] 158um halos surrounding star-forming galaxies in the early Universe. We choose deep ALMA data of 18 galaxies each with a star-formation rate of ~ 10-70 Msun with no signature of AGN whose [CII] lines are individually detected at z=5.153-7.142, and conduct stacking of the [CII] lines and dust-continuum in the...

    Abstract:
    The ALMA lensing cluster survey (ALCS) is an on-going cycle-6 large program to observe high magnification regions of 33 lensing clusters to expand the surveyed volume of high-redshift dust-continuum-selected and line-emitting galaxies. The ALCS covers 88 arcmin^2 in total, to a depth of 80 uJy (1.2 mm, 1 sigma), achieved by using a 15-GHz-wide spectral scan. The...

    Abstract:
    SPT0311-58 is a system of interacting galaxies at z=6.9, found via its millimeter-wave dust emission in the South Pole Telescope sky survey. Unlike most galaxies known in this era, which are relatively low-mass and dust-poor star forming galaxies, the constituents of this system are massive objects with significiant dust and gas content. ALMA has provided an...
