Scientific paper

We present HST images at 622 nm and 300 nm of the optical jet in 3C273 and
determine the run of the optical spectral index at 0.2" along the jet. We find
no evidence for localized acceleration or loss sites, and support for a
little-changing spectral shape throughout the jet. We consider this further
evidence in favour of a distributed acceleration process.
