Abstract: We place upper limits on the line-of-sight magnetic field toward the nucleus and inner jets in Centaurus A based on Zeeman effect HI absorption studies. The HI absorption curves also reveal a hitherto unreported feature -- a broad, low-intensity, redshifted absorption feature which extends up to about 635 km s-1 in heliocentric velocity, and is seen only toward the nucleus. Our interpretations of this feature are also presented.
