Outline of Talk
• Introduction– Clusters– HzRGs– HzRG-Cluster Program
• Some examples– 1138 at z = 2.2– 1338 at z = 4.1
• Program Results– Line emitters– Distant clusters
Importance of Distant Clusters
Distant clusters are of interest because• their presence constrains cosmological parameters (e.g. Eke et al. 1996)• their galaxies provide unique reservoir to investigate
galaxy evolution
– clusters at z ~ 0.5 contain more blue galaxies (Butcher & Oemler 1984)
– scatter in colour-magnitude relation constrains formation mode– central brightest cluster galaxies do not fit on LF
But difficult to find because of• contamination by foreground galaxies• cosmological surface brightness dimming of extended X-ray
emission
Most distant clusters found to date• at z = 1.11 by X-rays (Stanford et al. 2002)• at z = 1.26 by X-rays and NIR imaging (Rosati et al. 1999,
Stanford et al. 1997)
Properties of HzRGs
Indirect evidence that HzRGs are located in (forming) clusters
• Radio galaxies observed in clusters or over-densities of galaxies
– Half of powerful RGs at z ~ 0.5 inhabit rich clusters (Hill & Lilly 1991, Yates et al. 1989), strong correlation with redshift as at z < 0.15 RGs avoid clusters (Prestage & Peacock 1989)
– Nearby example of Cygnus A (Owen et al. 1997)– Over-density of K band galaxies in 3CR fields (Best 2000, 2003)
and other z ~ 1 RG and QSO fields (Hall et al. 2001, Barr et al. 2004)– Over-density of EROs and sub-mm galaxies near 4C41.17 (Ivison et al. 2000)
• Radio galaxies observed in dense ambient gas
– High (> 1000 rad m-1) radio RMs (Carilli et al. 1997, Pentericci et al. 2000)
• Hosts of HzRGs resemble brightest cluster galaxies
• HzRGs are amongst the most massive galaxies up to z ~ 5 (De Breuck et al. 2002)

• Elements of both hierarchical and monolithic formation
• Morphological types that dominate the faint population in the UDF (chains, tadpoles and clump-clusters)
• Star formation in two modes: LBG-like (50%) and diffuse (50%)

The Leiden HzRG Cluster Program
• Use HzRGs as beacons of forming clusters– HzRGs have properties of forming BCGs– Seem to live in dense environments at z ~ 1– Most massive galaxies at any z and therefore found in most massive DM halos
• Use Ly emitting galaxies as tracers of galaxy overdensities– Strongest (intrinsic) emission line– LAEs occupy faintest accesible part of LF– Spectroscopic confirmation relatively easy
• VLT Large Program– Eight radio galaxy fields at 2.2 < z < 5.2– Twenty nights with FORS/VLT (and twenty hours LRIS/Keck)
– Narrow band imaging of 33 Mpc2 fields and MOS spectroscopy
Line emitting galaxies at high redshift
• Primordial galaxies should emit 3-6% of their bol. lum. in Ly, resulting in EW0 = 100-200 Å (Charlot & Fall 1993)
• Ly is resonant, so large extinction can occur: only 25% of LBGs have EW0 > 20 Å (Shapley et al. 2003)
• LAE surveys fashionable– Hu et al. (1998), Rhoads et al. (2000),
Stiavelli et al. (2001), Ouchi et al. (2002),Hu et al. (2004), Tapken et al. (2006),Steidel et al. (2000)
– Little evolution of UV continuum with z– Controversy about red colours and high
equivalent widths– Clustering observed in large fields
• LAEs are currently redshift record holders
Intermezzo I - LAE at z = 6.5
• FORS2/VLT slitless spectroscopy combined with a medium band filter
• One LAE emitter found at z = 6.518 with flux of 210-17 erg s-1 cm-2
• Comparison of LFs at z = 5.7 and z = 6.5 shows little evolution and therefore reionization earlier than z = 6.5 (Malhotra & Rhoads 2004)

Individual HzRG Fields
• PKS 1138-262 at z = 2.16– Pilot VLT project (first VLT visitor observations, in 1999)
– Lowest redshift of sample– Indications of dense environment– Suitable redshift for H narrow band imaging– Chandra X-ray , NICMOS, MOIRCS observations– Main subject of my thesis my favourite object!
• TN J1338-1942 at z = 4.10– One of the brightest (in Ly line and radio continuum)
– Most overdense field (in terms of LAEs)– Drop-out imaging with ACS and Suprime-Cam
1138 Imaging
Imaging: 0.5 hr B band, 4 hr narrow band- Fifty LAEs with EW0 > 20 A and F > 210-19 erg s-1 cm-2 A-1

Intermezzo II - Wide field H survey
• Finally NIR detectors with large FoV available• WFCAM survey at z = 2.2 of 1.5 deg2 (on-going, P.I. Smail)• VISTA survey at z = 0.8 of 1.6 deg2 (proposed, P.I. Fynbo)• LF of H emitting galaxies, good estimate of (global) SFR at
z > 2• Comparison with HzRG fields (also other emission lines)
• Chandra imaging (40 ksec) reveals– apart from RG 17 serendipitous sources in FORS field
– about 50% more soft sources with flux > 10-15 erg s-1 cm-2 than in CDF (1.5 significance)
– coincidence with 3 LAEs, 1 HAE, 1 ERO– optical/X-ray ratios indicate AGN– four X-ray sources and RG roughly aligned

Conclusions on Ly Emitters• In total ~ 300 LAEs of which ~ 150 confirmed
– spectroscopic confimation succes rate ~ 90%– AGN fraction < 10%, based on line widths (95% < 1000 km s-
1)• lines asymmetric, sometimes with absorption (M(HI) up to 5104 M)
– LLy < 1043 erg s-1, fainter than L* in UV continuum
– No evidence for zero metallicity (max EW0 < 240 A)
– Continuum colours are blueer ( = -1.7) than for LBGs ( = -1.1)
– SFRs in the range 1 - 10 M yr-1 (LBGs typically > 10 M yr-1)
– Low dust content (blue UV and consistent Ly and UV SFR)• extinction correction on Ly SFR << 2
– Ages < 100 Myr, in 16% < 10 Myr (from UV continuum)– Half light radii (~ 1.0 kpc) smaller than for LBGs in GOODS (~ 2.3 kpc, Ferguson et al. 2004)

Conclusions on Distant Clusters
• At least six out of eight fields show overdensity– surface overdensity on the order of 3-5
• Confirmed emitters are clustered in redshift space– width of vel. distr. 2-5 smaller than NB
• Estimated protocluster masses 2-91014 M
– assuming bias parameter b = 3-6 and certain volume V (Steidel et al. 1999)M = <>V(1+m), 1 + bm = C(1+gal), C = 1 + f - f (1 + m)1/3
where <> is mean density of universe and C redshift space distortions
• Velocity dispersion decreases with redshift• FoV too small to give reliable estimate of sizes
– but from second field near 1338 radius of ~ 2 Mpc seems correct
Venemans et al. (in prep.)
Conclusions on Distant Clusters
N-body modelling by G. De Lucia shows that– LAEs in protoclusters can
be identified with young (< 100 Myr) galaxies• luminosity or colour is
not enough– velocity distribution of
simulated clusters increases with decreasing redshift
– HAEs near 1138 lie within virialized core and may be older (as suggested by their brighter K-band continua)
Millenium simulation will improve results

Conclusions on Distant Clusters
Theory of linear spherical collapse predicts critical density at which structure will collapse, almost indendent of cosmology L = 1.686 (Peacock 1999)
Compare evolution of linear matter overdensity of protoclusters with this critical density
