Almost a decade ago, the morphological similarities between patterns seen in Seyfert galaxies and those produced by gravitational forcing led to the suggestion that Seyfert activity might be fueled by material inflow induced by either a central bar or a perturbing companion (Simkin, Su, and Schwarz, 1980). More recent theoretical calculations suggest that such a feeding mechanism may involve a central bar-like, structure even if initially induced by the tidal effects of a companion galaxy (Noguchi, 1988a,b).
