2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/13013Deep $B$ and $R$ band images (R<24 and B<25) have been obtained of a field of $\sim 6 \times 6$ arcmin around seven radio-loud quasars with $1<z<1.6$. A statistically significant excess of faint ($22.5<B\le 23.5$ and $22<R\le 23.0$) galaxies was found, on scales of $r < 160''$ around the quasars ($>3σ_{N{exp}}$). The galaxies have magnitudes compatible with being at the redshift of the QSOs.2 pages, 1 figureAstrophysicstext
