Disentangling the nature of the prototype radio weak BL Lac: Contemporaneous multifrequency observations of WISE J141046.00 + 740511.2

E. J. Marchesini, V. Reynaldi, F. Vieyro +13

Context. The gamma-ray emitting source WISE J141046.00+740511.2 has been associated with a Fermi-LAT detection by crossmatching with Swift/XRT data. It has shown all the canonical…

Spectropolarimetry of the changing-look active galactic nucleus Mrk 1018

Damien Hutsemékers, Beatriz Agís González, Frédéric Marin +1

We have obtained new spectropolarimetric observations at visible wavelengths of the changing-look active galactic nucleus (AGN) Mrk 1018. The AGN direct spectrum shows an extremely…

Changing-look Seyfert galaxies with optical linear polarization measurements

F. Marin, D. Hutsemékers, B. Agís González

In this lecture note, we make the case for new (spectro)polarimetric measurements of "changing-look" AGNs (CLAGNs), a subclass of the AGN family tree that shows long-term (months t…

Polarization of changing-look quasars

D. Hutsemékers, B. Agís González, F. Marin +3

If the disappearance of the broad emission lines observed in changing-look quasars originates from the obscuration of the quasar core by dusty clouds moving in the torus, high line…

The role of Active Galactic Nuclei in galaxy evolution: insights from space ultraviolet spectropolarimetry

F. Marin, S. Charlot, B. Agís González +6

This Astro2020 white paper summarizes the unknowns of active galactic nuclei (AGN) physics that could be unveiled thanks to a new, space-born, ultraviolet spectropolarimeter. The u…

Probing the structure and evolution of active galactic nuclei with the ultraviolet polarimeter POLLUX aboard LUVOIR

F. Marin, S. Charlot, D. Hutsemékers +6

The ultraviolet (UV) polarization spectrum of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN) is poorly known. The Wisconsin Ultraviolet Photo-Polarimeter Experiment and a handful of instrumen…
