Circumnuclear Multiphase Gas in the Circinus Galaxy. V. The Origin of the X-Ray Polarization in the Circinus Galaxy

The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) detected X-ray polarization in the nearest Seyfert 2 galaxy, the Circinus galaxy, for the first time. To reproduce the IXPE results, we computed the degree of polarization based on two types of radiative hydrodynamic simulations: a parsec-scale three-dim...
