A Comparative Study of the Ground State Transitions of CO and C I as Molecular Gas Tracers at High Redshift
The CO(1–0) and [C I](1–0) emission lines are well-established tracers of cold molecular gas mass in local galaxies. At high redshift, where the interstellar medium is likely to be denser, there have been limited direct comparisons of both ground-state transitions. We present a comparison of [C I](1–0) and CO(1–0) emission in 20 unlensed dusty
