The Fermi/LAT collaboration recently reported the detection of starburt galaxies in the high energy gamma-ray domain, as well as radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 objects, which were previously unusual extragalactic suspects for high energy…
The Spitzer high resolution spectra of 72 Seyfert galaxies from the 12$\mu$m Galaxy Sample are presented and discussed. The presence of starburst components in these galaxies can be quantified by powerful mid-IR diagnostics tools (i.e.…
We present the discovery of an isolated compact group of galaxies that is extremely dense (median projected galaxy separation: 6.9 kpc), has a very low velocity dispersion ($\sigma_{\rm 2D}$ = 67 km s$^{-1}$), and where all observed members…
The $BeppoSAX$ archive is currently the largest reservoir of high sensitivity simultaneous soft and hard-X ray data of Seyfert galaxies. From this database all the Seyfert galaxies (105 objects of which 43 are type I and 62 are type II)…
Using the TNG100 cosmological simulation, we study the formation and evolution of compact groups of galaxies. Over a redshift range of $0 \lesssim z \lesssim 0.2$, we identify these compact groups as FoF galaxy groups with high mean surface…
Arrival directions of 63 extensive air showers with energies 4*10^19<E<=3*10^20 eV detected by the AGASA, Yakutsk, Haverah Park arrays are analyzed in order to identify possible sources of cosmic rays with these energies. We searched for…
We found a new, very compact group of galaxies characterized by a median projected separation between galaxies of 5.2/h kpc and a very low velocity dispersion. All the observed member galaxies show emission line spectra and a disturbed…
Far-infrared flux densities are newly extracted from the IRAS database for the RSA and CfA complete samples of Seyfert galaxies. These data are used to classify the Seyfert galaxies into those where the far-infrared continuum emission is…
A modification of the popular unification model for Seyfert galaxies is proposed, which takes into account recent observational findings on the statistical properties of both type 1 and type 2 Seyferts. In the proposed scenario,…
We have launched a search for large-scale ($\gapprox$1 kpc) minor-axis outflows in edge-on Seyfert galaxies in order to assess their frequency of occurrence and study their properties. Here we present optical continuum and \han2 line images…
We present an atlas of the central regions of 75 Seyfert galaxies imaged in the near-UV with the Advanced Camera for Surveys of the Hubble Space Telescope at an average resolution of ~10pc. These data complement archival high resolution…
We use various samples of compact groups (CGs) to examine the types of association CGs have with rich and poor clusters of galaxies at low (z~0.04) and intermediate (z~0.1) redshifts. We find that ~10-20 % of CGs are associated with rich…
Unified models of Seyfert galaxies, based on viewing angles, successfully explain the observed differences between type 1 and 2 Seyferts. The existence of a range in accretion rates relative to the Eddington rate (from broad-line Seyfert 1s…
Obscured active galactic nuclei, which are classified optically as type 2 (narrow-line) Seyfert galaxies in the local universe, are by far the most promising candidates for the origin of the hard (2-10 keV) X-ray background radiation.…
(Abridged) We describe a sample of low-mass Seyfert 2 galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, having a median absolute magnitude of M_g = -19.0 mag. These galaxies are Type 2 counterparts to the Seyfert 1 galaxies with…
We present a three-dimensional study of the local (<100 h^-1} kpc) and the large scale (<1 h^{-1} Mpc) environment of the two main types of Seyfert AGN galaxies. For this purpose we use 48 Sy1 galaxies (with redshifts in the range…
We present a deep study of the average hard X-ray spectra of Seyfert galaxies. We analyzed all public INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI data available on all the 165 Seyfert galaxies detected at z<0.2. Our final sample consists of 44 Seyfert 1's, 29…
Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies appear to be the densest galaxy systems containing a few luminous galaxies in close proximity to each other, which have a typical size of a few tens kilopacsec in observation. On the other hand, in the…
The advent of the Very Long Baseline Array and its phase-referencing capability have enabled milliarcsecond-scale imaging of radio sources at sub-millijansky sensitivity, opening the door to high-resolution imaging of Seyfert galaxies. Over…
We present a study of the local environment (<200 kpc/h) of 31 Hidden Broad Line Region (HBLR) and 43 non-HBLR Seyfert 2 galaxies (Sy2) in the nearby universe (z<0.04). To compare our findings, we constructed two control samples that match…
