Scientific paper

We propose to extend our systematic X-ray studies of the most-distant known quasars with XMM-Newton spectroscopy of five typical radio-loud quasars (RLQs) at z = 3.98-4.97. Our targets are more representative of the overall RLQ population than the small number of highly radio-loud blazars studied at z ~ 4, and we have detected all targets in exploratory Chandra observations. We will search for X-ray absorption in the quasars' environments to determine if it is common among typical RLQs at the highest redshifts. We will also measure X-ray continuum shapes and search for variability and clustered AGN.
