The Central Engine of Low-luminosity Radio Galaxy 3C 270 (NGC 4261)

The Central Engine of Low-luminosity Radio Galaxy 3C 270 (NGC 4261)

We present the polarization spectra of the nucleus of 3C 270. We confirm that the polarization angles of both the continuum and the emission lines are close to perpendicular to the jet direction after careful correction of interstellar polarization, which indicates polar scattering. The Stokes flux...
