Jet Deceleration at High-redshift?
Kataoka & Stawarz (2005)
• At high-z, increase IGM density and clumpiness
• Increased dissipation; jets stifled - more disrupted (pc & kpc) morphologies?
• Slower jets? More rapid deceleration to kpc-scales?

Steep-spectrum Excess Sources
How many others are there?

Low-frequency Spectral Curvature

Low-frequency Spectral Curvature
Low-frequency break reduces LR; LX unchanged
Could explain flatter X-ray spectra (αX<αR)
May reduce the very large inferred δ factors
Possible explanation for discrepant B-field estimates in radio clusters/relics (Petrosian 2001)

Four Challenges• X-ray emission mechanism and physics
through high-redshift jets [Radio imaging needs to catch up]
• Synergy with gamma-ray (GLAST) observations [Chandra imaging of GLAST-LAT blazars]
• The low-energy spectra [Anticipate Chandra data necessary when LWA, LOFAR come online]
• Hybrid synchrotron + IC models? [Detailed modeling of 3C273, PKS0637-752]
