Spatially Resolved Patchy Lyα Emission Within the Central Kiloparsec of a Strongly Lensed Quasar Host Galaxy at z = 2.8

Spatially Resolved Patchy Lyα Emission Within the Central Kiloparsec of a Strongly Lensed Quasar Host Galaxy at z = 2.8

We report the detection of extended Lyα emission from the host galaxy of SDSS J2222+2745, a strongly lensed quasar at z = 2.8. Spectroscopic follow-up clearly reveals extended Lyα in emission between two images of the central active galactic nucleus (AGN). We reconstruct the lensed quasar host galax...
