Scientific paper

We propose spectroscopic imaging with Chandra of five high z radio galaxies. These data represent a critical extension of our long-standing observational program on these sources. We will study the hot gas environments to constrain source dynamics and magnetic fields in the hot gas. We hope to determine whether the alignment between this hot gas and the radio source axis, as is seen in the two high z sources studied with Chandra thus far, is a general feature of high z radio galaxies. We will also study the Xray emission from the AGN in order to test quasar-radio galaxy unification models, and to probe the immediate gaseous environments of the AGN. We will search for Xray emission from other cluster galaxies, and for non-thermal Xray emission from the radio structures.
