What causes a quasar?
Abstract
Most of the pre-launch expectations that we had of what HST would reveal around luminous, nearby quasars have not been confirmed. Instead, the HST pictures show a richer variety of apparently normal galaxies, of complex systems of interacting material, and of undetected (presumably) faint host galaxies.
