Predicting the broad lines polarization emitted by supermassive binary black holes

Đ. Savić, F. Marin, L. Č. Popović

Some Type-1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are showing extremely asymmetric Balmer lines with the broad peak redshifted or blueshifted by thousands of km/s. These AGNs may be good c…

Spectral and polarimetric signatures of X-ray eclipses in AGN

E. S. Kammoun, F. Marin, M. Dovciak +3

X-ray observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN) show variability on timescales ranging from a few hours up to a few days. Some of this variability may be associated with occulta…

A complete disclosure of the hidden type-1 AGN in NGC 1068 thanks to 52 years of broadband polarimetric observation

F. Marin

We create the first broadband polarization spectrum of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) by compiling the 0.1 - 100 microns, 4.9 GHz and 15 GHz continuum polarization of NGC 1068 fr…

The science case for POLLUX, a high-resolution UV spectropolarimeter onboard LUVOIR

Jean-Claude Bouret, Coralie Neiner, Ana I. Gómez de Castro +9

POLLUX is a high-resolution, UV spectropolarimeter proposed for the 15-meter primary mirror option of LUVOIR. The instrument Phase 0 study is supported by the French Space Agency (…

Modeling optical and UV polarization of AGNs V. Dilution by interstellar polarization and the host galaxy

F. Marin

One of the main challenges for polarimetric observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is to properly estimate the amount of parasitic light that contaminates the polarization si…

Contribution of parsec-scale material onto the polarized X-ray spectrum of type-1 Seyfert galaxies

F. Marin, M. Dovciak, E. S. Kammoun

Type-1 radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGN) are seen from the polar direction and offer a direct view of their central X-ray engine. If most of X-ray photons have traveled from…

Thick turbulent gas disks with magnetocentrifugal winds in active galactic nuclei - Model infrared emission and optical polarization

B. Vollmer, M. Schartmann, L. Burtscher +4

(Abridged) Infrared high-resolution imaging and interferometry have shown that the dust distribution is frequently elongated along the polar direction of an AGN. To explain these f…

AGN Black hole mass estimates using polarization in broad emission Lines

Đ. Savić, R. Goosmann, L. Č. Popović +2

The innermost regions in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) were not being spatially resolved so far but spectropolarimetry can provide us insight about their hidden physics and the geo…
