Scientific paper

We propose a joint Chandra/VLA program to map the active galaxy population in a complex merger of four groups at z = 0.84. Combined with supporting data, the Chandra and VLA observations will allow us to measure the properties of X-ray and radio sources over the full structure, study AGN/starburst host galaxies to determine what causes gas-fueling events, and determine the effect of dynamics on the nuclear activity and gas content of galaxies in an actively-forming cluster. Because galaxy environment changes dramatically during the course of vigorous assembly, active clusters offer us the unique opportunity to probe the physical effects on galaxies as they assemble into denser regions. As such, this survey will begin to constrain how large-scale processes influence galaxy-scale events.
