3D Spectroscopy of the Nuclear Environment of a Selected Sample of Nearby Active Galactic Nuclei: NGC 7319
Abstract
We report some results of a spectrophotometric study of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 7319 extracted from a sample of nearby active galactic nuclei observed using integral field spectroscopy. The Multi Pupil Fiber Spectrograph (MPFS) mounted at the Russian 6-m telescope, which takes simultaneously 240 spectra at low or intermediate spectral resolution of a 16'' × 15'' field, has been used for the observations. Two-dimensional maps of diagnostic emission line ratios have allowed to investigate in detail the nature of the ionization processes acting in these regions.
