Deep I-band imaging of z=5.99 quasar
Abstract
Deep I-band imaging was carried out to search for the optical counterpart of the X-ray jet candidate near SDSS 1306+0356, reported by Schwartz (2002 [astro-ph/0202190]). The data suggest that the extended X-ray source may be a jet, related to a galaxy rather than to the quasar itself.
