Enhancement of AGN in a protocluster at z=1.6

Enhancement of AGN in a protocluster at z=1.6

We investigate the prevalence of AGN in the high-redshift protocluster Cl 0218.3–0510 at z = 1.62. Using imaging from the Chandra X-ray Telescope, we find a large overdensity of AGN in the protocluster; a factor of 23±9 times the field density of AGN. Only half of this AGN overdensity is due to the...
