The Seyfert Population in the Local Universe [PDF]
The magnitude-limited catalog of the Southern Sky Redshift Survey (SSRS2), is used to characterize the properties of galaxies hosting Active Galactic Nuclei. Using emission-line ratios, we identify a total of 162 (3%) Seyfert galaxies out of the parent sample with 5399 galaxies. The sample contains 121 Seyfert 2 galaxies and 41 Seyfert 1.

Spatially resolved BPT mapping of nearby Seyfert 2 galaxies [PDF]
We present spatially resolved BPT mapping of the extended narrow line regions (ENLRs) of seven nearby Seyfert 2 galaxies, using HST narrow band filter imaging. We construct the BPT diagrams using $\leq$ 0.1" resolution emission line images of [O III]$\lambda$5007, H$\alpha$, [S II]$\lambda$$\lambda$6717,6731, and H$\beta$.

On the X-ray, optical emission line and black hole mass properties of local Seyfert galaxies ! [PDF]
We investigate the relation between X-ray nuclear emission, optical emission line luminosities and black hole masses for a sample of 47 Seyfert galaxies. The sample, which has been selected from the Palomar optical spectroscopic survey of nearby galaxies

We analyze a sample of 21 “bare” Seyfert 1 active galactic nuclei, a subclass of Seyfert 1 galaxies, with intrinsic absorption N _H ∼ 10 ^20 cm ^−2 , in the local Universe ( z < 0.2) using XMM-Newton and Swift/XRT observations.

INFRARED SPECTRAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF SEYFERT GALAXIES: SPITZER SPACE TELESCOPE OBSERVATIONS OF THE 12 μm SAMPLE OF ACTIVE GALAXIES [PDF]
The mid-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 83 active galaxies, mostly Seyfert galaxies, selected from the extended 12 μm sample are presented.

The Close Environment of Seyfert Galaxies and Its Implication for Unification Models [PDF]
This paper presents a statistical analysis of the circumgalactic environment of nearby Seyfert galaxies based on a computer-aided search of companion galaxies on the Digitized Sky Survey (DSS). An intrinsic difference between the environment of Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 galaxies, suggested by previous work, is confirmed as statistically significant.

Gas Motion Mapping for Three Seyfert Galaxies
We report the preliminary results of a kinematical study of three Seyfert galaxies selected from a sample of nearby active galactic nuclei observed using 3D spectroscopy.

Reverberation mapping of the emission line regions of Seyfert galaxies and quasars.
Variations in the strengths of the central photoionization source in a quasar or Seyfert galaxy will generate variations in the strengths and profiles of the emission lines.
