Abstract

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has been used extensively to study the host galaxies of AGN, primarily quasars and radio galaxies with relatively high nuclear luminosities. Its order-of-magnitude better spatial resolution (over a large field compared to adaptive optics) provides unique and critical information at sub-arcsecond scales (see e.g. Bahcall et al., 1997; Hooper, Impey and Foltz, 1997; McLure et al., 1999)
