Note. — Col. (1): NGC/UGC Name; Col. (2): Position angles of the major axes just
outside the central dust distributions; Col. (3): Position angles of the radio jet axes on
arcsecond scales or smaller; Col. (4): Position angles of the central dust distributions;
Col. (5): Position angles of the STIS slits on the nucleus; Col. (6): The target orientation
of the STIS slits (� M.Ax.: Parallel to the Major Axis; � Dust: Parallel to the Dust
Axis; ⊥ Jet: Perpendicular to the radio jet; † Additional flexibility allowed to reduce
scheduling constraints); Col. (7): Offset in degrees of the STIS slits from the target
orientation.
