Is the high-energy emission from Centaurus A compton-scattered jet radiation?

Abstract
We consider whether the hard X-ray and soft gamma-ray emission from Centaurus A is beamed radiation from the active nucleus which is Compton-scattered into our line-of-sight. We derive the spectrum and degree of polarization of scattered radiation when incident beamed radiation is scattered from a cold ($kT<
