Listeria-infecting phages are currently being used to control and detect the important foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes; however, the influence of environmental conditions on the interactions between L. monocytogenes and its phages has not been explored in depth.

We report the detection of the host Galaxy of the radio quiet QSO Q01511048A at z51.922. Deep U, B and I imaging of the QSO pair Q01511048A1B obtained at the Nordic Optical Telescope in good seeing has revealed a very luminous host (M ̄ 2 24 in all three bands assuming V 51) centred on the position of Q01511048A. The colours and extreme obs m brightness of this host galaxy resembles the ones re...
