New observations with the IRAM interferometer of CO(3--2) from the highly luminous galaxy IRAS F10214+4724 show the source is 1.5 x <= 0.9 ; they display no evidence of any velocity gradient. This size, together with optical and IR data that show the galaxy is probably gravitationally lensed, lead to a new model for the CO distribution. In contrast to many lensed objects, we have a good estimate of the intrinsic CO and far IR surface brightnesses, so we can derive the CO and far IR/sub-mm magnifications. The CO is magnified 10 times and has a true radius of 400 pc. and the far IR is magnified 13 times and has a radius of 250 pc. The true far IR luminosity is 4 to 7e12 Lsun and the molecular gas mass is 2e10 Msun . This is nearly an order of magnitude less than previously estimated. Because the far IR magnification is lower than the mid and near IR magnification, the intrinsic spectral energy distribution now peaks in the far infrared. That is, nearly all of the energy of this object is absorbed and re-emitted in the far infrared. In CO luminosity, molecular gas content, CO linewidth, and corrected far IR luminosity, 10214+472 is a typical, warm, IR ultraluminous galaxy.

The z=2.286 IRAS galaxy F10214+4724 remains one of the most luminous galaxies in the Universe, despite its gravitational lens magnification. We present optical and near-infrared spectra of F10214+4724, with clear evidence for three distinct component
s: lines of width ~1000 km/s from a Seyfert-II nucleus; <~200 km/s lines which are likely to be associated with star formation; and a broad ~4000 km/s CIII] 1909ang emission line which is blue-shifted by ~1000 km/s with respect to the Seyfert-II lines. Our study of the Seyfert-II component leads to several new results, including: (i) From the double-peaked structure in the Ly alpha line, and the lack of Ly beta, we argue that the Ly alpha photons have emerged through a neutral column of N_H ~ 2.5 x 10^{25}/m^2, possibly located within the AGN narrow-line region as argued in several high redshift radiogalaxies. (ii) The resonant O VI 1032,1036ang doublet (previously identified as Ly beta) is in an optically thick (1:1) ratio. At face value this implies an an extreme density (n_e ~ 10^{17}/m^3) more typical of broad line region clouds. However, we attribute this instead to the damping wings of Ly beta from the resonant absorption. (iii) A tentative detection of HeII 1086 suggests little extinction in the rest-frame ultraviolet.
Using the IRAM 30m telescope and the Plateau de Bure interferometer we have detected the ctwo and the CO 3$-$2, 4$-$3, 6$-$5, 7$-$6 transitions as well as the dust continuum at 3 and 1.2 mm towards the distant luminous infrared galaxy IRAS F10214+472
4 at $z=2.286$. The ctwo line is detected for the first time towards this source and IRAS F10214+4724 now belongs to a sample of only 3 extragalactic sources at any redshift where both of the carbon fine structure lines have been detected. The source is spatially resolved by our ctwo observation and we detect a velocity gradient along the east-west direction. The CI line ratio allows us to derive a carbon excitation temperature of 42$^{+12}_{-9}$ K. The carbon excitation in conjunction with the CO ladder and the dust continuum constrain the gas density to $n(hh)$ = $10^{3.6-4.0}$ cm$^{-3}$ and the kinetic temperature to $Trm_{kin}$ = 45--80 K, similar to the excitation conditions found in nearby starburst galaxies. The rest-frame 360 $mu$m dust continuum morphology is more compact than the line emitting region, which supports previous findings that the far infrared luminosity arises from regions closer to the active galactic nucleus at the center of this system.
Sensitive new observations of the fine structure line $^3$P$_2$$to $ $^3$P$_1$ (J=2--1) of the neutral atomic carbon CI ($ u_{rest}sim 809$ GHz) in the strongly lensed Ultra Luminous Infrared Galaxy (ULIRG) IRAS F10214+4724 at z=2.3 with the mm/sub-m
m telescope James Clerk Maxwel (JCMT) are presented. These do not confirm the presence of emission from this line at the flux levels or angular extent previously reported in the literature. The new 2$sigma $ upper limits are: $rm S_{CI}la 7 Jy km s^{-1}$ (central position), and $rm < S_{CI} > la 8.5 Jy km s^{-1}$ (average over the two $rm [delta (RA), delta (Dec)]=[0,pm 10]$ positions). A CI emission assumed fully concomitant with the bulk of H$_2$ and confined entirely within the strongly lensed object yields an upper limit of $rm M_{CI}(H_2)la 1.5 times 10^{10} M_{odot}$, compatible with the reported CO-derived H$_2$ gas mass, within the uncertainties of the two methods. A comparison with the recent detection of the $^3$P$_1$$to $ $^3$P$_0$ (J=1--0) line in this galaxy by Weiss et al. (2004) is made and the large discrepancy with the previous CI measurements is briefly discussed.
We report 1.7 GHz Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations of IRAS F10214+4724, a lensed z=2.3 obscured quasar with prodigious star formation. We detect what we argue to be the obscured active nucleus with an effective angular resolution
of < 50 pc at z = 2.3 . The S_{1.7} = 210 micro-Jy (9-sigma) detection of this unresolved source is located within the HST rest-frame ultraviolet/optical arc, however, >~100 mas northward of the arc centre of curvature. This leads to a source plane inversion that places the European VLBI Network detection to within milli-arcseconds of the modelled cusp caustic, resulting in a very large magnification (mu ~70), over an order of magnitude larger than the CO (1-0) derived magnification of a spatially resolved JVLA map, using the same lens model. We estimate the quasar bolometric luminosity from a number of independent techniques and with our X-ray modelling find evidence that the AGN may be close to Compton-thick, with an intrinsic bolometric luminosity log(L_{bol,QSO} / L_sun) = 11.34 +- 0.27 dex. We make the first black hole mass estimate of IRAS F10214+4724 and find log(M_{BH}/M_sun) = 8.36 +- 0.56 which suggests a low black hole accretion rate (lambda = dot{M} / dot{M}_{Edd} ~ 3pm^7_2 percent). We find evidence for a M_{BH}/M_{spheroid} ratio that is 1-2 orders of magnitude larger than that of submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) at z~2. At face value, this suggests IRAS F10214+4724 has undergone a different evolutionary path compared to SMGs at the same epoch. A primary result of this work is the demonstration that emission regions of differing size and position can undergo significantly different magnification boosts (> 1 dex) and therefore distort our view of high-redshift, gravitationally lensed galaxies.
We present JVLA observations of the cold (CO (1-0)) molecular gas in IRAS F10214+4724, a lensed ULIRG at z=2.3 with an obscured active nucleus. The galaxy is spatially and spectrally well-resolved in the CO (1-0) emission line. A CO (1-0) counter-ima
ge is detected at the 3-sigma level. Five of the 42 km/s channels (with >5-sigma detections) are mapped back into the source plane and their total magnification posterior PDFs sampled. This reveals a roughly linear arrangement, tentatively a rotating disk. We derive a molecular gas mass of M_gas = 1.2 +- 0.2 x 10^10 M_sun, assuming a ULIRG L_{CO}-to-M_{gas} conversion ratio of alpha = 0.8 M_sun / (K km/s pc^2) that agrees well with the derived range of alpha = 0.3 - 1.3 for separate dynamical mass estimates at assumed inclinations of i = 90 - 30 degrees. Based on the AGN and CO (1-0) peak emission positions and the lens model, we predict a distortion of the CO Spectral Line Energy Distribution (SLED) where higher order J lines that may be partially excited by AGN heating will be preferentially lensed owing to their smaller solid angles and closer proximity to the AGN and therefore the cusp of the caustic. Comparison with other lensing inversion results shows that the narrow line region and AGN radio core in IRAS F10214+4724 are preferentially lensed by a factor >~ 3 and 11 respectively, relative to the molecular gas emission. This distorts the global continuum emission Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) and suggests caution in unsophisticated uses of IRAS F10214+4724 as an archetype high-redshift ULIRG. We explore two Large Velocity Gradient (LVG) models, incorporating spatial CO (1-0) and (3-2) information and present tentative evidence for an extended, low excitation cold gas component that implies that the total molecular gas mass in IRAS F10214+4724 is a factor >~2 greater than that calculated using spatially unresolved CO observations.
