Title of your presentation : | Radio-Loud Quasars at high redshift |
Abstract |
Nearly all z>6 quasars have been discovered through optical searches, primarily from SDSS. FIRST J1427+3312 is the only known z>6 quasar that is radio-loud, I will discuss recent VLA and VLBA observations which show this quasar is a compact steep-spectrum radio source and is likely to be very young. I will also discuss recent claims that the radio-loud fraction of quasars declines with redshift. |
