We report the discovery of large scale structures of X-ray sources in the 1Msec observation of the Chandra Deep Field South. Two main structures appear as narrow (Delta_z < 0.02) spikes in the source redshift distribution at z=0.67 and z=0.73, respectively. Their angular distribution spans a region at least ~ 17 arcmin wide, corresponding to a physical size of 7.3 h_{70}^{-1} Mpc at a redshift of z ~ 0.7 (Omega_m=0.3, Omega_{Lambda}=0.7). These spikes are populated by 19 sources each, which are mainly identified as Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Two sources in each spike are extended in X-rays, corresponding to galaxy groups/clusters embedded in larger structures. The X-ray source redshift distribution shows other spikes, the most remarkable at z=1.04, 1.62 and 2.57. This is one of the first evidences for large scale structure traced by X-ray sources and for spatial clustering of X-ray selected AGN. The X-ray data have been complemented with the spectroscopic data from the K20 near infrared survey (Cimatti et al. 2002), which covers ~1/10 of the X-ray field. Also in this survey the source redshift distribution shows several spikes. Two narrow structures at z=0.67 and z=0.73 (again with Delta_z ~ 0.02) are the most significant features, containing 24 and 47 galaxies, respectively. While the K20 structure at z=0.73 is dominated by a standard galaxy cluster with a significant concentration around a central cD galaxy and morphological segregation, the galaxies at z=0.67 constitute a loose structure rather uniformly distributed along the K20 field.[abridged]
In this Paper we present the source catalog obtained from a 942 ks exposure of the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS), using ACIS-I on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Catalog generation proceeded simultaneously using two different methods; a method of ou
A large population of heavily obscured, Compton Thick AGNs is predicted by models of galaxy formation, models of Cosmic X-ray Background and by the ``relic super-massive black-hole mass function measured from local bulges. However, so far only a hand
We present the main results from our 940 ksec observation of the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS), using the source catalog described in an accompanying paper (Giacconi et al. 2001). We extend the measurement of source number counts to 5.5e-17 erg/cm^
Wide-field surveys are a commonly-used method for studying thousands of objects simultaneously, to investigate, e.g., the joint evolution of star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei. VLBI observations can yield valuable input to such studies
We present a sensitive 870 micron survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS) using LABOCA on the APEX telescope. The LABOCA ECDFS Submillimetre Survey (LESS) covers the full 30 x 30 field size of the ECDFS and has a uniform noise level o
