The Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey: Evidence for an Enhancement in the AGN Activity in the SSA22 Protocluster at z = 3.09
Lehmer, B. D., D. M. Alexander, J. E. Geach, Ian Smail, et al. 2009. "The Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey: Evidence for an Enhancement in the AGN Activity in the SSA22 Protocluster at z = 3.09." The Astrophysical Journal 691(1): 687-695We present results from a new ultra-deep 400 ks Chandra observation of the SSA22 protocluster at z = 3.09. We have studied the X-ray properties of 234 z ~ 3 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs; protocluster and field) and 158 z = ... -
The Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey: Lyα Blobs are powered by heating, not cooling
Geach, J. E., D. M. Alexander, B. D. Lehmer, Ian Smail, et al. 2009. "The Chandra Deep Protocluster Survey:Lyα Blobs are powered by heating, not cooling." The Astrophysical Journal, 700(1): 1-9We present the results of a 400ks Chandra survey of 29 extended Ly-alpha emitting nebulae (Ly-alpha Blobs, LABs) in the z=3.09 proto-cluster in the SSA22 field. We detect luminous X-ray counterparts in five LABs, implying ...
