Polarimetry and photometry of the new AM Herculis system RE J1844-741
(1995)
The ROSAT Wide Field Camera extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) source RE J1844-741 was identified with a 16th-magnitude cataclysmic variable with a period of 90 min by O'Donoghue et al. In this paper, we present spectropolarimetry ...
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 ...
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 ...
Near-IR Spectropolarimetry of NGC 1088
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1994)
The current unified model of Seyfert galaxies, as proposed by Antonucci and Miller (1985), has most, if not all, Seyfert 2 galaxies hosting a Seyfert 1 type nucleus in their cores. The broad lines from the type 1 nucleus ...
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 ...
