Abstract We intend to detect new features in gravitationally lensed QSO's. In particular, we will look for the predicted extra images, optical counter-parts to VLA and VLBI jets and if possible at the morphology of the deflecting mass. Quantitative knowledge of these is necessary for the astrophysical use of the phenomenon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8.

Description of proposed observations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5. Description of special scheduling requirements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12. Note that 66% of the time allocated to this proposal is to be charged to P. Crane's GTO time, and that 34% of the time is to be charged to the FOC-IDT. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 13. Known gravitationally lensed QSO's will be imaged to look for expected subsidiary images and optical counterparts to radio jets. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 11.
