SEYFERT 2 GALAXIES WITH BRIGHT [OIII] LINE
ABSTRACT
The Unified Seyfert model well describes the characteristics of Seyfert 2 galaxies. However it is still open question whether the model apply for all Seyfert 2 galaxies. We have found that the forbidden line, [OIII]5007 is a good indicator to find an obscured nucleus in Seyfert 2 galaxy. We will make unbiased sample with the intensity of the [OIII] 5007 line, and will check the characteristics of Seyfert 2 galaxy, systematically. Here we will propose ASCA observations of Mkn573 and Mkn78. Since the hard X-ray emission from these galaxies could not be detected by Ginga, the nuclei would be heavily obscured.
