Dust lanes, thick absorbers, and the unification model for Seyfert galaxies | Giorgio Matt
; | Date: |
23 Feb 2000 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | Dip. Fisica, Univ. Roma Tre | Abstract: | A modification of the popular unification model for Seyfert galaxies is proposed, which takes into account recent observational findings on the statistical properties of both type 1 and type 2 Seyferts. In the proposed scenario, Compton-thick Seyfert 2 galaxies are those sources observed through compact, thick matter (the `torus’), while Compton-thin/intermediate Seyfert galaxies are obscured by dust lanes at larger distances. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0002427 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
