Constraints on the nuclear emission of the Circinus galaxy : optical and near-IR spectropolarimetry
(2000)
We present optical and, for the first time, K-band spectropolarimetry of the nuclear region of the Circinus galaxy. In the optical we confirm the previous discovery of polarized broad Hα. We have not detected polarized ...
