Chandra Proposal Id #05700327

Scientific paper

We propose deep followup observations of two X-ray jets, which are the brightest discovered in our Chandra survey of quasars with known radio jets. We also propose deep, 2-band HST imaging of these targets. With these data, we will compare their X-ray, optical and radio morphologies. We will also obtain X-ray and optical spectral indices, and spatially resolved SEDs from the radio through the X-rays. This will allow us to determine the X-ray emission mechanism at each point in these jets, and test critical predictions made by each mechanism. We will also be able to track any changes in physical conditions (including magnetic field and bulk Lorentz factor) that are present in the observed 90 degree bends.
