We describe our program to search for and study the kilo-parsec scale radio jets in a sample of high-redshift (greater than 3.4), flat spectrum quasars using new and archival VLA data. Two of these radio jets have been imaged with Chandra, and have X-ray counterparts and are briefly discussed. These high-redshift sources are important targets for testing current X-ray jet emission models for kpc-scale jets and follow-up multi-wavelength observations will shed light on this problem.

Broad-band Spectral Modeling of Large-Scale X-ray Jets in High-Redshift Quasars: An MHD-Informed Approach
astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

An MHD-informed model with self-consistent radial profiles applied to ten z >= 2.5 quasar jets yields higher jet powers than one-zone models, favors electron distributions tied to gas pressure, and finds low magnetiza...
