  • Induced Activity in Mixed-Morphology Galaxy Pairs D. Dultzin E. M. Huerta J. J. González Y. Krongold H. M. Hernández-Toledo L. Olguín P. Marziani I. Cruz-González Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Galaxies: active galaxies: interactions Results from a spectroscopic study of the nuclear emission of a sample of 97 spirals in isolated galaxy pairswith mixed morphology (E+S) are presented and discussed. The Main results of this study are: (1) AGNactivity is found in 40% of the spiral galaxies in these pairs, (2) Only one out of the 39 AGN found shows type 1 activity, and (3) AGN tend to have closer companions than star forming galaxies. These results are atodds with a simple Unified Model for Seyferts, where only obscuration/orientation effects are of relevance, and neatly support an evolutionary scenario where interactions trigger nuclear activity. 2008 artículo científico 0185-1101 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57103259 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=571 Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica (México) Vol.32
