Seyfert Galaxies in Compact Groups
P. Focardi, B. Kelm, V. Zitelli, G. Sarti
Abstract
We present results concerning the occurrence of Seyfert galaxies in a new large sample of Compact Groups (Focardi & Kelm 2002). Seyfert galaxies turn out to be relatively rare (<3%), with a significant dominance of Sy2. Seyferts are preferentially associated to Compact Groups displaying relatively high velocity dispersion and a large number of neighbours. These characteristics,together with an excess of ellipticals among companions, suggest that Seyferts are to be found preferentially in rich-groups/poor-cluster like CGs.
