Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in seyfert and star-forming galaxies

Abstract:

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carbon-based molecules resulting from the union of aromatic rings and related species, which are likely responsible for strong infrared emission features. In this work, using a sample of 50 Seyfert galaxies (DL < 100 Mpc) we compare the circumnuclear (inner kpc) PAH emission of AGN to that of a control sample of star-forming galaxies (22 luminous infrared galaxies and 30 H ii galaxies), and investigate the differences betwe...
