Chandra Proposal Id #07800218

Scientific paper

We propose to use Chandra and the VLA to map the active galaxy population in the most well-studied high-redshift supercluster. The supercluster contains eight massive clusters at z = 0.9 and covers a 10 Mpc x 15 Mpc region. Combined with our extensive supporting data, the Chandra and VLA observations will allow us to measure the properties of X-ray and radio sources over a wide range of local densities, study AGN/starburst host galaxies to determine which physical processes can cause gas-fueling events, and determine the effect of large scale structure on the nuclear activity and gas content of galaxies in the high-redshift Universe. Because clusters are actively forming at this epoch, this survey will provide the crucial link between large scale structure and galaxy-scale physics.
