Scientific paper

We propose ACIS-S observations of a sample of four high redshift galaxy clusters with 0.87 < z < 1.34 discovered by the 42 square degree Spitzer Adaptation of the Red Sequence Survey (SpARCS). This survey is currently the largest optical/IR survey for high redshift clusters, and includes significant multi-wavelength follow-up. Extensive Gemini spectroscopic observations have confirmed that all of our targets are rich, massive clusters with velocity dispersions ranging from 650-1000 km/sec. Our Chandra observations are designed to detect the extended intra-cluster medium in the cluster cores, provide rough constraints on core gas densities, and probe the AGN population in these fields.
