Abstract

The first-ever high energy (~ 1-30 keV) X-ray spectra of three z ~ 2 radio-quiet quasars (RQQs) are presented. If confirmed, the most interesting result is the marginal, but consistent, evidence for FeKα emission lines in at least two of the sources. Further ASCA observations of high-z RQQs are needed for firm conclusions.
