摘要
Two mechanisms for the formation of polarized radiation in Active Galactic Nuclei and quasars are considered-synchrotron radiation from a jet and the emergence of radiation from a magnetized, optically thick accretion disk (the Milne problem in a magnetized atmosphere). These mechanisms are applied to the polarization of objects studied in [1]. We have shown that the polarization of some sources cannot be explained as synchrotron radiation. The second mechanism is more general and, in principle, can be applied to the polarized radiation of all the sources in [1].
