Radio-loud high-redshift protogalaxy candidates in Bootes
Steve Croft, Wil van Breugel, Michael J. I. Brown +8
We used the Near Infrared Camera on Keck I to obtain Ks-band images of four candidate high-redshift radio galaxies selected using optical and radio data in the NOAO Deep Wide-Field…
Radio AGN in 13,240 galaxy clusters from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Steve Croft, Wim de Vries, Robert H. Becker
We correlate the positions of 13,240 Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) with 0.1 <= z <= 0.3 from the maxBCG catalog with radio sources from the FIRST survey to study the sizes and…
Metal enriched gaseous halos around distant radio galaxies: Clues to feedback in galaxy formation
Michiel Reuland, Wil van Breugel, Wim de Vries +11
We present the results of an optical and near-IR spectroscopic study of giant nebular emission line halos associated with three z > 3 radio galaxies, 4C 41.17, 4C 60.07 and B2 0902…
The Filamentary Large Scale Structure around the z = 2.16 Radio Galaxy PKS 1138-262
Steve Croft, Jaron Kurk, Wil van Breugel +4
PKS 1138-262 is a massive radio galaxy at z = 2.16 surrounded by overdensities of Lya emitters, Ha emitters, EROs and X-ray emitters. Numerous lines of evidence exist that it is lo…
Clustering and light profiles of galaxies in the environment of 20 Ultra Steep Spectrum Radio sources
Carlos G. Bornancini, Hector J. Martinez, Diego G. Lambas +4
We have analyzed galaxy properties in the neighborhood of 20 Ultra-Steep Spectrum Radio sources (USS) taken from the WISH catalog of De Breuck et al. (2002). Galaxies in these USS…
Giant Lya nebulae associated with high redshift radio galaxies
Michiel Reuland, Wil van Breugel, Huub Roettgering +7
We report deep Keck narrow-band Lya images of the luminous z > 3 radio galaxies 4C 41.17, 4C 60.07, and B2 0902+34. The images show giant, 100-200 kpc scale emission line nebulae,…
