Scientific paper

The maximum entropy method is applied to Hubble Space Telescope data taken of the R Aquarii binary system and its jet with the Faint Object Camera in order to restore an image in forbidden O III at 5007 A plagued by spherical aberration and detector saturation. These results are compared with 2-cm radio continuum imagery taken with the Very Large Array at the same limiting resolution of about 0.1 arcsec. The comparison suggests that shock excitation of the inner jet accounts for a spatial difference between the forbidden O III and radio continuum emission regions.
