Abstract
We present prelimary results from our 3D imaging spectroscopic survey of 15 nearby Seyfert and inactive control galaxies, using the SAURON IFU on the WHT. A goal of the project is to search for dynamical triggers of nuclear activity. To this end, detailed analysis of the stellar and gaseous kinematics is underway. All galaxies show disk-like rotation in their stellar and gaseous velocity fields, with some showing significant misalignments between the stellar and gaseous components.
