The inverse-Compton X-ray-emitting lobes of the high-redshift giant radio galaxy 6C 0905+39

We present new XMM-Newton data of the high-redshift (z=1.883), Mpc-sized giant radio galaxy 6C 0905+39. The larger collecting area and longer observation time for our new data means that we can better characterise the extended X-ray emission, in particular its spectrum, which arises from cosmic micr...
