Galaxy counterparts of intervening high-z sub-DLAs/DLAs and MgII absorbers towards gamma-ray bursts
S. Schulze, J. P. U. Fynbo, B. Milvang-Jensen +19
We present the first search for galaxy counterparts of intervening high-z (2<z< 3.6) sub-DLAs and DLAs towards GRBs. Our final sample comprises of five intervening sub-DLAs and DLA…
Quasar induced galaxy formation: a new paradigm ?
D. Elbaz, K. Jahnke, E. Pantin +2
We discuss observational evidence that quasars play a key role in the formation of galaxies starting from the detailed study of the quasar HE0450-2958 and extending the discussion…
The QSO HE0450-2958: Scantily dressed or heavily robed? A normal quasar as part of an unusual ULIRG
Knud Jahnke, David Elbaz, Eric Pantin +5
(Abridged) The luminous z=0.286 quasar HE0450-2958 is interacting with a companion galaxy at 6.5 kpc distance and the whole system is a ULIRG. A so far undetected host galaxy trigg…
Near-IR observations of the HE0450-2958 system: discovery of a second AGN?
G. Letawe, P. Magain, V. Chantry +1
The QSO HE0450-2958 was brought to the front scene by the non-detection of its host galaxy and strong upper limits on the latter's luminosity. The QSO is also a powerful infrared e…
New Insights into the Quasar Type1/Type2 Dichotomy from Correlations between Quasar Host Orientation and Polarization
B. Borguet, D. Hutsemékers, G. Letawe +2
We investigate correlations between the direction of the optical linear polarization and the orientation of the host galaxy/extended emission for type1 and type2 radio-loud and rad…
Understanding the relations between QSOs and their host galaxies from combined HST imaging and VLT spectroscopy
Y. Letawe, P. Magain, G. Letawe +2
The host galaxies of six nearby QSOs are studied on the basis of high resolution HST optical images and spatially resolved VLT slit spectra. The gas ionization and velocity are map…
