ON the Nuclear Motions in NGC 4151
Abstract
The emission lines arising from the nuclear regions of NGC 4151 indicate nuclear gas motions. It is suggested that these motions are rotational rather than radial in nature and that the emitting gas is essentially confined to the galactic plane. A rough estimate is made of the nuclear mass. Subject headings: galactic nuclei - galaxies, individual - galaxies, motions in - Seyfert galaxies
