Abstract

Based on an R-band imaging survey of 6 high redshift (z~2) and high luminosity (M<-28mag) QSOs, we report the detection of extensions in two radio-quiet and one radio-loud QSO. The extensions are most likely due to the host galaxies of these QSOs, with luminosities of at least 3-7 per cent of the QSO luminosity. The most likely values for the luminosity of the host galaxies lie in the range $6-18 per cent of the QSO luminosity.
