The X-ray and radio activity of typical and luminous Ly α emitters from z ∼ 2 to z ∼ 6: evidence for a diverse, evolving population

The X-ray and radio activity of typical and luminous Ly α emitters from z ∼ 2 to z ∼ 6: evidence for a diverse, evolving population

Despite recent progress in understanding Lyman-alpha (Lya) emitters (LAEs), relatively little is known regarding their typical black hole activity across cosmic time. Here, we study the X-ray and radio properties of ~4000 LAEs at 2.2<z<6 from the SC4K survey in the COSMOS field. We detect 254 (6.8+-0.4%) of the LAEs …
