Was the Cosmic Web of Protogalactic Material Permeated by Lobes of Radio Galaxies During the Quasar Era?

Gopal-Krishna, Paul J. Wiita

Evidence for extended active lifetimes (> 10^8 yr) for radio galaxies implies that many large radio lobes were produced during the `quasar era', 1.5 < z < 3, when the comoving dens…
