Abstract

A description is given of the method used to extract quasar host-galaxy parameters from the deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) quasar images presented by McLure, Dunlop and co-workers. We then give the results of extensive testing of this technique on a wide range of simulated quasar+host combinations spanning the redshift range of our HST study (0.1
