Scientific paper

The purpose of this program is to locate and obtain spectra of several primeval galaxies (i.e., galaxies at very high redshifts). The method employed is to obtain deep WF/PC exposures of the regions near known high redshift quasars and search for faint, extended objects, including anything associated with the quasars themselves. Out of the three WF/PC fields, the three brightest extended objects will be chosen for follow-up with the FOS. Depending on the magnitudes of the objects, long integrations with G650L or the prism will be used to compare the spectral energy distributions of the primeval galaxies to lower redshift objects to study the evolution of galaxies.
