The Kiloparsec-scale Influence of the AGN in NGC 1068 with SALT RSS Fabry–Pérot Spectroscopy
We present Fabry–Pérot (FP) imaging and longslit spectroscopy of the nearby Seyfert II galaxy NGC 1068 using the Robert Stobie Spectrograph (RSS) on the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) to observe the impact of the central active galactic nucleus (

Spitzer/IRS 5-35 um Low-Resolution Spectroscopy of the 12 um Seyfert Sample [PDF]
We present low-resolution 5.5-35 um spectra for 103 galaxies from the 12 um Seyfert sample, a complete unbiased 12 um flux limited sample of local Seyfert galaxies selected from the IRAS Faint Source Catalog, obtained with the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS)

Simultaneous X-ray and optical observations of true type 2 Seyfert galaxies [PDF]
We present the results of a campaign of simultaneous X-ray and optical observations of ‘true’ type 2 Seyfert galaxies candidates, i.e. active galactic nuclei without a broad-line region (BLR).

X-ray perspective of Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies [PDF]
It is arguably in the X-ray regime that Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) exhibit the most extreme behaviour. Spectral complexity, rapid and large amplitude flux variations, and exceptional spectral variability are well known characteristics ...

Recent Results from the SAFIR Project
The "Seyfert and star formation Activity in the Far-Infrared" (SAFIR) project is aimed at studying the physical nature of the nuclear IR emission and star formation properties of a small sample of nearby Seyfert galaxies observed with the PACS and SPIRE ...

Spectral properties of the narrow‐line region in Seyfert galaxies selected from the SDSS‐DR7 [PDF]
Although the properties of the narrow-line region (NLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) have been deeply studied by many authors in the past three decades, many questions are still open.

What We Talk about When We Talk about Blazars?
After the discovery of powerful relativistic jets from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies, and the understanding of their similarity with those of blazars, a problem of terminology was born.

The Relative Orientation of Nuclear Accretion and Galaxy Stellar Disks in Seyfert Galaxies [PDF]
We use the difference (delta) between the position angles of the nuclear radio emission and the host galaxy major axis to investigate the distribution of the angle (beta) between the axes of the nuclear accretion disk and the host galaxy disk in Seyfert ...

Physical properties of dense molecular gas in centres of Seyfert galaxies [PDF]
We present new ∼1 arcsec resolution data of the dense molecular gas in the central 50–100 pc of four nearby Seyfert galaxies. Plateau de Bure Interferometer (PdBI) observations of HCN and, in two of the four sources, simultaneously HCO + allow us to ...

Stellar and dust properties in a sample of blue early type galaxies [PDF]
This paper presents a comparative study of physical properties of a sample of 89 blue early-type galaxies (ETGs) from the local universe by fitting SEDs to their multi-wavelength photometric and spectroscopic data.
