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…
Testing the Unified Model with an Infrared Selected Sample of Seyferts
H. R. Schmitt, J. S. Ulvestad, R. R. J. Antonucci +3
We present a series of statistical tests using homogeneous data and measurements for a sample of Seyfert galaxies. These galaxies were selected from mostly isotropic properties, th…
The Importance of Shocks in the Ionization of the Narrow Line Region of Seyferts
H. R. Schmitt, A. L. Kinney, J. B. Hutchings +2
We discuss the viability of shocks as the principal source of ionization for the Narrow Line Region of Seyfert galaxies. We present the preliminary results of [OIII]5007A and radio…
Astrophysical Polarimetry of Cosmological Sources
Robert Antonucci
Kostelecky and Mewes have recently shown that sensitive constraints can be placed on some aspects of Lorentz symmetry violation using certain astronomical data on high-redshift sou…
A Hidden Nucleus in Cygnus A, but Not in M87
D. Whysong, R. Antonucci
Historically the narrow line radio galaxies were thought to be intrinsically nonthermal, and without significant accretion. When the Unified Model came along the compelling observa…
