Description
We study the photoionization of the Extended Narrow Line Region (ENLR) using three anisotropic radiation fields: (1) a geometrically thick accretion disk; (2) a large (at 1 pc to the nucleus) obscuring torus; (3) a blazar beam produced by a relativistic jet. The variation of the intensity of several emission lines with the inclination angle with respect to the symmetry axis is calculated in these cases. We find differences in the angular variation of the intensity and intensity ratios of certain lines for the considered models.

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta
