Abstract

{We present results of CO(1-0) spectroscopic observations of 10 Sloan Digital Sky Survey type 2 quasars (QSO2) at z {\tilde} 0.2-0.3 observed with the 30-m IRAM radio telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We report five new confirmed CO(1-0) detections and one tentative detection. They have L\^{}' $\}$\_CO {\tilde} several {\times} 10⁹ K km s$^{-1}$ pc$^{2}$, while upper limits for the non-detections are L\^{}' $\
