Abstract

AbstractSample contains 15 019 narrow emission-line galaxies, i.e. Seyferts, LINERs, composites and star-forming galaxies, from SDSS DR7 for systematically studying differences between different classes. We report two clear sequences of electron temperature (Te) and density (ne): Te-LINER ≳ Te-composite > Te-Seyfert > Te-star-forming and ne-Seyfert ≳ ne-LINER > ne-composite > ne-star-forming. General transitions of ne and Te from central regions to disks are quantitatively confirmed.
