Abstract



We present six spectroscopically confirmed massive protostructures, spanning a redshift range of 2.5 < z < 4.5 in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS) field discovered as part of the Charting Cluster Construction in VUDS and ORELSE (C3VO) survey. We identify and characterize these remarkable systems by applying an overdensity measurement technique on an extensive data compilation of public and proprietary spectroscopic and photometric observations in this highly studied extragalactic field. Each of these six protostructures, i.e. a large scale overdensity (volume >9000 cMpc(3)) of more than 2.5 sigma(delta) above the field density levels at these redshifts, have a total mass Mtot >= 10(14.8) M-circle dot and one or more highly overdense (overdensity > 5 sigma(delta) ) peaks. One of the most complex protostructures discovered is a massive (M-tot = 10(15.1)M(circle dot)) system at z similar to 3.47 that contains six peaks and 55 spectroscopic members. We also discover protostructures at z similar to 3.30 and z similar to 3.70 that appear to at least partially overlap on sky with the protostructure at z similar to 3.47, suggesting a possible connection. We additionally report on the discovery of three massive protostructures at z = 2.67, 2.80, and 4.14 and discuss their properties. Finally, we discuss the relationship between star formation rate and environment in the richest of these protostructures, finding an enhancement of star formation activity in the densest regions. The diversity of the protostructures reported here provide an opportunity to study the complex effects of dense environments on galaxy evolution over a large redshift range in the early Universe.

We are grateful to the anonymous reviewer for their insightful review of our manuscript. Their detailed comments have substantially enhanced the quality of the paper. Results in this paper were partially based on observations made at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory at NSF's NOIRLab, which is managed by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA) under a cooperative agreement with the National Science Foundation. Results additionally relied on observations collected at the European Organisation for Astronomical Research in the Southern Hemisphere. This work is based on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology under a contract with NASA. Some of the data presented herein were obtained at Keck Observatory, which is a private 501(c)3 non-profit organization operated as a scientific partnership among the California Institute of Technology, the University of California, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The Observatory was made possible by the generous financial support of the W. M. Keck Foundation. Some of the material presented in this paper is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 1908422. This work was additionally supported by NASA's Astrophysics Data Analysis Program under grant number 80NSSC21K0986. GG acknowledges support from the grants PRIN MIUR 2017 -20173ML3WW_001, ASI n.I/023/12/0, and INAF-PRIN 1.05.01.85.08. The authors wish to recognize and acknowledge the very significant cultural role and reverence that the summit of Maunakea has always had within the indigenous Hawaiian community. We are most fortunate to have the opportunity to conduct observations from this mountain.
