Scientific paper

We propose Chandra ACIS-S snapshot observations of a sample of luminous radio-loud quasars at z > 4. Our targets were recently discovered in a wide-field survey for bright radio-loud quasars, and several of them are highly radio loud with radio-loudness parameters of 1300-9600. Our targets are expected to be among the X-ray brightest at z > 4, and we will study the contribution of X-rays to their spectral energy distributions as well as their average X-ray spectral properties. Observations of these targets will help to bridge the enormous gap in radio loudness between radio-quiet quasars and highly radio-loud blazars at z > 4. We will also search for X-ray spatial extent associated with radio jets. These observations will extend our previous successful GO and GTO programs.
