Discovery of a radio galaxy at z = 5.72

We report the discovery of the most distant radio galaxy to date, TGSS J1530+1049 at a redshift of z = 5.72, close to the presumed end of the Epoch of Reionization. The radio galaxy was selected from the TGSS ADR1 survey at 150 MHz for having an ultra-steep spectral index, a1.4 GHz150 MHz = -1.4 and...
