NGC 1320: A Feeble, High-Ionization Seyfert 2 Galaxy
Abstract
Emission-line strengths and widths are reported for NGC 1320, a Seyfert 2 galaxy that is unusual in having both a quite high ionization spectrum, as well as rather narrow lines and a relatively weak featureless continuum. The narrow-line region is evidently quite small in this galaxy, and the observed gas has not been accelerated to velocities as high as the velocities observed in most other Seyfert galaxies.
