A model for the infrared continuum spectrum of NGC 1068
(1995)
We present a model for the nuclear infrared (IR) continuum spectrum of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068. The torus emission is modelled in terms of the tapered disc models of Efstathiou & Rowan-Robinson, which give a good fit ...
Millimeter polarimetry of star-forming regions : magnetic field structure and low mass stars
(1995)
We have measured polarization of the 1.1 mm and 0.8 mm continuum emission for 3 pre-T Tauri stars and 2 T Tauri stars. Positive detections were made for NGC 1333 IRAS 4 and IRAS 16293-2422, while L1551 IRS 5 and HL Tau ...
Spatially Resolved Spectropolarimetry of NGC 1068
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994)
A turning point in the study of AGN was the discovery of broad hydrogen lines seen in polarized light in the nucleus of NGC 1068 (Antonucci and Miller 1985). A model was developed whereby the scatterers responsible for ...
Models of Dusty Discs in Active Galactic Nuclei
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994)
One of the challenges faced by unified theories for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is to match the observed infrared emission to that predicted for the optically and geometrically thick dusty discs believed to obscure the ...
Hidden broad-line regions and anisotropy in AGN
(1994)
We discuss the recent advances made in the search for hidden broad line regions in Seyfert and Narrow Line Radio Galaxies (NLRG) using both spectropolarimetry and infrared spectroscopy/spectropolarimetry. Two important ...
IR Imaging Polarimetry of the Nuclear Regions of CEN A
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994)
Aperture polarimetry of the nucleus of Cen A (Bailey et al. 1986) revealed a very red polarized source present in the K and L bands which was interpreted as a blazar type nucleus. To study this region in more detail we ...
