Seyfert Galaxies: Polarization, Active Galactic Nuclei: Structure

Scientific paper

The study of the molecular torus in Seyfert galaxies is introduced. This structure is suggested from the similarity between the polarization measurements of Seyfert 2 and the observational data of Seyfert 1. With torus structure hypothesis, the authors discuss its effects on observational results, describe the possible structure and evolution of the torus as well as its importance in the unified model. The effects of obscuring and beaming, and multi-waveband properties caused by these effects are described. The scattering effect and the observed polarization induced by this effect are emphasized.
