We present results from a half-day observation by XMM-Newton of the nucleus of the nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 6300. The X-ray spectrum of the nucleus consists of a heavily absorbed hard component dominating the 3--10 keV band and a soft…

The emission-line flux ratio of [O III]4363/[O III]5007 (R_OIII)is a useful diagnostic for the ionization mechanism and physical properties of emission-line regions in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). However, it is known that simple…

We present high quality (high signal-to-noise ratio and moderate spectral resolution) near-infrared (near-IR) spectroscopic observations of 23 well-known broad-emission line active galactic nuclei (AGN). Additionally, we obtained…

Archival VLA data has been used to produce arcsecond-resolution 6- and 20-cm images of the region surrounding the nuclear 200-pc (~15") starburst in NGC 253. Twenty-two discrete sources stronger than 0.4 mJy have been detected within ~2 kpc…
