Faint Quasars Live in the Same Number Density Environments as Lyman Break Galaxies at z ∼ 4

Faint Quasars Live in the Same Number Density Environments as Lyman Break Galaxies at z ∼ 4

Characterizing high-z quasar environments is key to understanding the co-evolution of quasars and the surrounding galaxies. To restrict their global picture, we statistically examine the g-dropout galaxy overdensity distribution around 570 faint quasar candidates at z ~ 4, based on the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program survey. We compare the …
