Strongly support the thick-disk geometry of circumnuclear material suggested by Spectropolarimetric data and models presented here In this source is within or close to the skin of the torus, in agreement with The scatterer on scales of a few tens of pc. Geometrically thick disk, whose `skin' is outflowing at 1000 km/s and acts as Polarization properties of a near-Eddington extremely red quasar SDSS J1652 canīe successfully explained by a model in which the quasar is surrounded by a Result of the geometry of the outflow and the orientation of the observer. We demonstrate that the swinging polarization angle can be a We use these models to predict polarizationįraction, line profiles and polarization position angles and compare them to We propagate Stokes parameters in a variety of geometries Kinematic model in which the scattering dust or electrons are in anĪxisymmetric outflow. Swings by large amounts (90 deg) within an emission line. Here weĭiscuss an intriguing class of quasars where the polarization position angle Of quasars on scales that cannot yet be probed via direct observations. Spectropolarimetry can thusīe an important tool in investigating the circumnuclear geometry and kinematics Material, become polarized and reach the observer.
