Fig. 1

Left panel: the field of view of GRB 050730
(z = 3.969) observed in
F775W with HST/ACS. Middle
panel: zoom-in on the inner 288. The
different slit orientations from Table 1
are overplotted. Right panel: zoom-in on the inner 6′′; the
panel was smoothed by a boxcar filter (width:
). The afterglow
position is marked by an “ × ” in all panels. The 100-kpc radius (shown in the
middle panel) represents the assumed maximum impact parameter of the absorber at
z = 3.56. Objects are labelled if they lie within the circle
and if they are covered by any of the slits. Their magnitudes are summarised in
Table 4.
