Jet Directions in Seyfert Galaxies: Radio Continuum Imaging Data

Abstract

We present the results of VLA A-array 8.46 GHz continuum imaging of 55 Seyfert galaxies (19 Seyfert 1Ïs and 36 Seyfert 2Ïs). These galaxies are part of a larger sample of 88 Seyfert galaxies, selected from mostly isotropic properties, the Ñux at 60 km, and warm infrared 25[60 km colors. These images are used to study the structure of the radio continuum emission of these galaxies and their position angles, in the case of extended sources. These data, combined with information from broadband B and I observations , have been used to study the orientation of radio jets relative to the plane of their host galaxies (Kinney et al.).
