Searching for the Role of Mergers in Fast and Early SMBH Growth: Morphological Decomposition of Quasars and Their Hosts at z ∼ 4.8
We present rest-frame ultraviolet images of six luminous quasars at z ∼ 4.8 obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). These quasars exhibit a wide range of star formation rates (SFRs) and lie in a wide range of environments. We carefully model and subtract the point-like quasar emission and in...
