Transient and Highly Polarized Double-Peaked H-alpha Emission in the Seyfert 2 Nucleus of NGC 2110

Edward C. Moran, Aaron J. Barth, Michael Eracleous +1

We have discovered an extremely broad, double-peaked H-alpha emission line in the polarized flux spectrum of NGC 2110, establishing that this well-studied Seyfert 2 galaxy contains…

"Hidden" Seyfert 2 Galaxies in the Chandra Deep Field North

Carolin N. Cardamone, Edward C. Moran, Laura E. Kay

We have compared the X-ray--to--optical flux ratios (F_x/F_opt) of absorbed active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the Chandra Deep Field North (CDF-N) with those of nearby, optically cl…

UV Imaging Polarimetry of the peculiar Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 477

Makoto Kishimoto, Laura E. Kay, Robert Antonucci +3

We present the results of UV imaging polarimetry of the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 477 taken by the Faint Object Camera onboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). From a previous HST UV i…

UV Imaging Polarimetry of the Seyfert 2 Galaxy Mrk 3

Makoto Kishimoto, Laura E. Kay, Robert Antonucci +3

We present UV imaging polarimetry data of the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 3 taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The polarized flux is found to be extended to ~1 kpc from the nucleus, and…

A Composite Seyfert 2 X-ray Spectrum: Implications for the Origin of the Cosmic X-ray Background

Edward C. Moran, Laura E. Kay, Marc Davis +2

We present a composite 1-10 keV Seyfert 2 X-ray spectrum, derived from ASCA observations of a distance-limited sample of nearby galaxies. All 29 observed objects were detected. Abo…

The Frequency of Polarized Broad Emission Lines in Type 2 Seyfert Galaxies

E. C. Moran, A. J. Barth, L. E. Kay +1

We have discovered polarized broad emission lines in five type 2 Seyfert galaxies (NGC 424, NGC 591, NGC 2273, NGC 3081, and NGC 4507), establishing that these objects are type 1 S…
