HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE - Continuing to collect World Class Science DAILY REPORT # 4248 PERIOD COVERED: UT November 28, 2006 (DOY 332) OBSERVATIONS SCHEDULED ACS/HRC 10833 Host Galaxies of Reverberation Mapped AGNs We propose to obtain unsaturated high-resolution images of 17 reverberation-mapped active galactic nuclei in order to remove the point-like nuclear light from each image, thus yielding a "nucleus-free" image of the host galaxy. This will allow investigation of h ...Continue Reading
