Absorption Lines:Quasars
Scientific paper
August 1978 was a very hectic month on La Silla. Members of the Technical Support Group, under the leadership of Dr. Marius de Jonge, worked around the clock to get everything ready at the 3.6 m Cassegrain focus for two weeks' observations with the Boksenberg Image Photon Counting System. The efforts of the ESO technicians and the visiting astronomers were brilliantly successful and many unique observations were made. Together with other colleagues, Dr. John Danziger (ESO-Geneva) observed an umber of faint galaxies and quasars. One of the aims was to study the detailed structure of absorption fines that are seen in many distant quasars and to throw some light on their origin. Are these lines formed in the immediate neighbourhood of the quasar or by intervening matter in intergalactic space?
