AbstractWe introduce a new, publicly available Monte Carlo radiative transfer code, Stokes, which has been developed to model polarization induced by scattering of free electrons and dust grains. It can be used in a wide range of astrophysical applications. Here, we apply it to model the polarization produced by the equatorial obscuring and scattering tori assumed to exist in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). We present optical/UV modeling of dusty tori with a curved inner shape and for two different dust types. The polarization spectra enable us to clearly distinguish between the two dust compositions. The Stokes code and its documentation can be freely downloaded from http://www.stokes-program.info/.

ABSTRACT We use a new and statistically powerful Planck likelihood to show that the Planck temperature and polarization spectra are consistent with a spatially flat Universe, in contrast to recent claims in the literature. When combined with other astrophysical data, particularly geometrical measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations, our likelihood constrains the Universe to be spatially flat to extremely high precision. We deduce a curvature density parameter ΩK = 0.0004 ± 0.0018 in good agreement with the 2018 results of the Planck team. In the context of inflationary cosmology, the observations offer strong support for models of inflation with a large number of e-foldings and disfavour models of incomplete inflation.
