We present optical candidates for 75 X-ray sources in a $\sim 1$ deg$^2$ overlapping region with the medium deep ROSAT survey. These candidates are selected using the multi-color CCD imaging observations made for the T329 field of the…

We investigate the star formation properties of ~800 sources detected in one of the deepest radio surveys at 1.4 GHz. Our sample spans a wide redshift range (~0.1 - 4) and about four orders of magnitude in star formation rate (SFR). It…

We present sensitive imaging at 1.4 GHz of the two highest redshift far-infrared (FIR) luminous QSOs SDSS J114816.65+525150.2 (z=6.42) and SDSS J104845.05+463718.3 (z=6.2). Radio continuum emission is detected from J1148+5251 with S_{1.4} =…

We present a comparison between the published optical, IR and CO spectroscopic redshifts of 15 (sub-)mm galaxies and their photometric redshifts as derived from long-wavelength (radio-mm-FIR) photometric data. The redshift accuracy measured…

We cross-identified the ROSAT Bright Source Catalog (RBSC) and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) to construct the RBSC-NVSS sample of the brightest X-ray sources (>= 0.1 counts/s or ~1E-12 ergs/cm/cm/s in the 0.1-2.4 keV band) that are also…

We report the discovery of a radio-loud flat-spectrum QSO at z=5.47 with properties similar to those of the EGRET gamma-ray blazars. This source is the brightest radio QSO at z>5, with a pc-scale radio jet and a black hole mass estimate…
