Scientific paper

The luminous, high redshift quasar (v=16.1, z=2.72) HS 1700 + 6416, discovered recently by us, has been found with IUE to be in the UV the brightest known QSO. Its flux increases from 1500 to 1200A with shorter wavelength. This up to now unique object offers the possibility to conduct spectroscopic observations in the UV at a resolution of 10^3 with the aim i. to study the energy distribution of a luminous QSO down to rest wavelengths of 320 A ii. to search for QSO emission lines below 1000A to 320A iii. to study the distribution of the Lyman forest and of IGM in one line of sight between z=0 and z=2.72
