How Polarization and Scattering can reveal Geometries, Dynamics, and Feeding of Active Galactic Nuclei
R. W. Goosmann, C. M. Gaskell, M. Shoji
Gaskell et al. (2007) introduced polarization reverberation mapping as a new technique to explore the structure of active galactic nuclei. We present modeling results for the time-…
Structure and Kinematics of the Broad-Line Region and Torus of Active Galactic Nuclei
C. Martin Gaskell, Rene W. Goosmann, Elizabeth S. Klimek
Energetics considerations imply that the broad-line region (BLR) has a high covering factor. The absence of absorption from the BLR means that the BLR has to have a flattened distr…
Accretion Disks and the Nature and Origin of AGN Continuum Variability
C. Martin Gaskell
Theory and observations of the dominant thermal continuum emission in AGNs are examined. After correction for reddening, the steady state AGN optical--UV spectral energy distributi…
NGC 5548: The AGN Energy Budget Problem and the Geometry of the Broad-Line Region and Torus
C. Martin Gaskell, Elizabeth S. Klimek, Ludmila S. Nazarova
We consider in detail the spectral energy distribution (SED) and multi-wavelength variability of NGC5548. Comparison with the SEDs of other AGNs implies that the internal reddening…
AGN Reddening and Ultraviolet Extinction Curves from Hubble Space Telescope Spectra
C. Martin Gaskell, A. J. Benker
We present intrinsic extinction curves for 14 AGNs. The AGNs have reddenings, E(B-V), of up to 0.36 mag. The majority (13 out of 14) of the extinction curves are not steep in the U…
