Deep Lyman alpha imaging of radio galaxy 1138-262 at redshift 2.2

J. D. Kurk, H. J. A. Roettgering, L. Pentericci +1

Observations of the powerful radio galaxy 1138-262 at z=2.2 suggest that this galaxy is a massive galaxy in the center of a forming cluster. We have imaged the field of 1138-262 wi…

Jet-Induced Emission-Line Nebulosity and Star Formation in the High-Redshift Radio Galaxy 4C41.17

Geoffrey V. Bicknell, Ralph S. Sutherland, Wil J. M. van Breugel +3

The high redshift radio galaxy 4C41.17 consists of a powerful radio source in which previous work has shown that there is strong evidence for jet-induced star formation along the r…

A Radio Galaxy at z=5.19

Wil van Breugel, Carlos De Breuck, S. A. Stanford +3

We report the discovery of the most distant known AGN, the radio galaxy TN J0924-2201 at z = 5.19. The radio source was selected from a new sample of ultra-steep spectrum (USS) sou…

Optical spectroscopy of faint gigahertz peaked spectrum sources

I. A. G. Snellen, R. T. Schilizzi, M. N. Bremer +3

We present spectroscopic observations of a sample of faint Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio sources drawn from the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS). Redshifts have been…
