Limits on the Spatial Extent of AGN Measured with the Fine Guidance Sensors of the HST

Richard N. Hook, Ethan J. Schreier, George Miley

The optical structure of several AGN has been studied using the Fine Guidance Sensors (FGS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The FGSs are interferometric devices which can reso…

Optical continuum structure of Cygnus A

R. A. E. Fosbury, J. Vernet, M. Villar-Martin +4

As a prerequisite for interpreting new observations of the most distant radio galaxies, we make an optical study of the closest powerful radio source, Cygnus A. Using Keck imaging-…
