High-resolution optical imaging of three QSOs

  • 1. Dominion Astrophysical Observatory, Victoria (Canada)

Description

Using a rapid guiding camera on the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope, R-band images have been obtained of three low-redshift QSOs with FWHM close to 0.5 arc sec. The QSOs are a radio-loud, a strong IR source, and a BAL, respectively. In all cases, features are seen close to the nucleus which are unusual and indicate that a statistical multicolor study at this resolution will produce significant new information on QSO environments and evolution. 10 refs
