Abstract: The APEX Low-redshift Legacy Survey for MOlecular Gas (ALLSMOG) is a survey of CO J=2-1 (rest frame frequency, 230.538 GHz) line emission in a sample of 88 galaxies in the local Universe (programme no. E-192.A- 0359). This sample is well characterized in terms of several derived and measured physical properties (star- formation rates, stellar masses, gas-phase metallicities, and atomic HI gas masses). The primary goal of ALLSMOG is to add information on the cold molecular gas content of these galaxies derived from the low-J CO line emission in order to determine the impact of the gas content on the inferred galaxy properties. The programme lasted for five semesters (P92 to P96) and consumed 327 hours of APEX observing time. The goal of the survey was to reach a CO J=2-1 line peak-to-rms ratio of, S/N>3 for the detections, and an uniform rms of 0.8 mK (31.2 mJy) per 50 km/s channel for the non-detections. Multi-epoch observations of the same source were merged together to produce a single CO J=2-1 spectrum for each target. This document describes the data release of the final reduced ALLSMOG dataset, including both detections and non-detections.
The data release and analysis is described in more detail in Cicone et al. (2017, A&A, 604, 53; https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017A%26A...604A..53C/abstract) and Bothwell et al (2014, MNRAS, 445, 2599, https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2014MNRAS.445.2599B/abstract).
Other: This is a dynamic dataset; it is growing as new data is added. The DOI refers to the newest available dataset.
