Quasar Host Orientation and Polarization: Insights into the Type 1/Type 2 Dichotomy
B. Borguet, D. Hutsemékers, G. Letawe +2
We investigate correlations between the optical linear polarization position angle and the orientation of the host galaxy/extended emission of Type 1 and Type 2 Radio-Loud (RL) and…

Evidence for a Type 1/Type 2 dichotomy in the correlation between quasar optical polarization and host galaxy/extended emission position angles
B. Borguet, D. Hutsemékers, G. Letawe +2
For Seyfert galaxies, the AGN unification model provides a simple and well established explanation of the Type 1/Type 2 dichotomy through orientation based effects. The generalizat…
