This data release is associated with the publication "The Quasar Feedback Survey: zooming into the origin of radio emission with e-MERLIN".

This work presents 6GHz radio imaging, obtained from e-MERLIN for the 42 quasars from the Quasar Feedback Survey (first presented in Jarvis et al. 2021, MNRAS, 503, 1780 https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab549). These targets are z~0.1 quasar host galaxies, selected to be luminous in [O III] emission (L[O III] > 1042.1 erg/s). For full details of the survey see Jarvis et al. (2021).

This data release contains images produced from the e-MERLIN data for each of the 42 sources. The raw e-MERLIN data were obtained under programme ID: CY11205.

All normal metadata, associated with astronomical images (observation details, source details, process of imaging), is included with the fits files.

These images were produced using Briggs weighting (with robust parameter r=0.5), when applying the TCLEAN imaging algorithm.
