   Abstract:
   Infers the intrinsic optical, UV and X-ray continuum of the obscured Seyfert nucleus of NGC 1068, using small aperture and polarized flux data to separate host galaxy contamination from reflected nuclear light. In support of popular unification models, the authors find it to be similar to typical type 1 Seyfert galaxy and quasar continua. The bolometric luminosity of the active nucleus is 2.2×10¹¹(f_refl/0.01)^-1(D/22 Mpc)²L_⊙, where f_refl is the fraction of nuclear flux reflected into the line of sight and D is the distance to NGC 1068
