The Astrophysical Journal, 842(1):55, June, 2017. Paper doi abstract bibtex We investigate gas contents of star-forming galaxies associated with protocluster 4C23.56 at z = 2.49 by using the redshifted CO (3-2) and 1.1 mm dust continuum with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The observations unveil seven CO detections out of 22 targeted Hα emitters (HAEs) and four out of 19 in 1.1 mm dust continuum. They have high stellar mass (\M\\textlessSUB\textgreater\textbackslashstar \textless/SUB\textgreater> 4× \10\\textlessSUP\textgreater10\textless/SUP\textgreater M \textlessSUB\textgreater☉\textless/SUB\textgreater) and exhibit a specific star-formation rate typical of main-sequence star-forming galaxies at z̃ 2.5. Different gas-mass estimators from CO (3-2) and 1.1 mm yield consistent values for simultaneous detections. The gas mass (\M\\textlessSUB\textgreater\gas\textless/SUB\textgreater\) and gas fraction (\f\\textlessSUB\textgreater\gas\textless/SUB\textgreater\) are comparable to those of field galaxies, with \M\\textlessSUB\textgreater\gas\textless/SUB\textgreater\=[0.3,1.8]× \10\\textlessSUP\textgreater11\textless/SUP\textgreater× (\α \\textlessSUB\textgreater\CO\textless/SUB\textgreater\/(4.36× A(Z))) \M\\textlessSUB\textgreater☉ \textless/SUB\textgreater, where \α \\textlessSUB\textgreater\CO\textless/SUB\textgreater\ is the CO-to-H\textlessSUB\textgreater2\textless/SUB\textgreater conversion factor and A(Z) is the additional correction factor for the metallicity dependence of \α \\textlessSUB\textgreater\CO\textless/SUB\textgreater\, and < \f\\textlessSUB\textgreater\gas\textless/SUB\textgreater\> =0.53+/- 0.07 from CO (3-2). Our measurements place a constraint on the cosmic gas density of high-z protoclusters, indicating that the protocluster is characterized by a gas density higher than that of the general fields by an order of magnitude.
