Abstract

ABSTRACT Spectroscopy and CCD photometry have been obtained to investigate four galaxies reported to have unusually strong UV excess in their objective prism spectra. The spectra of CG 1293 (B152299+302942) and CG 1331 (B155442+295724) suggest they are Seyfert 1 galaxies, with z = 0.1260±0.0002 (standard error) and z = 0.0874±0.0009, respectively. Hα in CG 1293 has a line width (FWHM) of approximately 4 x 103 km s-1. The Hα, Hβ, and Hγ lines in CG 1331 have line widths greater than 7 x 103 km s-1. Spectra for the galaxies CG 1280 (B150126+300206) and CG 1298 (B153025+315554) have no identified emission lines. We find MB=-22.13 for CG 1293 and MB=-22 for CG 1331, for H0=50 km s-1 Mpc-1 and q0=0.5.
