    • The host galaxies of luminous quasars 

      Floyd, David; Kukula, Marek; Dunlop, James; McLure, Ross; Miller, Lance; Percival, Will; Baum, Stefi; O'Dea, Christopher (Blackwell Publishing, 2004-11)
      We present the results of a deep HST/WFPC2 imaging study of 17 quasars at z~=0.4, designed to determine the properties of their host galaxies. The sample consists of quasars with absolute magnitudes in the range −24 ≥ MV ...
    • The jet and circumnuclear environment of 3C 293 

      Floyd, David; Perlman, Eric; Leahy, J. Patrick; Beswick, Rob; Jackson, Neal; Sparks, William; Axon, David; O’Dea, Christopher (Astrophysical Journal, 2006-03-01)
      We present the new HST near-infrared polarimetry, broad and narrow-band imaging, and MERLIN 4.5GHz Multi-Frequency Synthesis radio imaging of 3C 293, a unique radio galaxy whose host is an obvious merger remnant, in an ...
    • The warped nuclear disk of radio galaxy 3C 449 

      Tremblay, Grant; Quillen, Alice; Floyd, David; Noel-Storr, Jacob; Baum, Stefi; Axon, David; O'Dea, Christopher; Chiaberge, Marco; Macchetto, Duccio; Sparks, William; Miley, George; Capetti, Alessandro; Madrid, Juan; Perlman, Eric (Astrophysical Journal, 2006)
      Among radio galaxies containing nuclear dust disks, the bipolar jet axis is generally observed to be perpendicular to the disk major axis. The FR I radio source 3C 449 is an outlier to this statistical majority, as it ...
