Star Formation in Galactic Nuclei
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Summary.
The term AGN or Active Galactic Nucleus, although with rather ill-defined boundaries, signifies extragalactic systems with non-stellar nuclear activity. Non-stellar activity indicators are: high luminosity, presence of broad emission lines, variability, nuclear UV excess, x-ray emission, radio emission, variable polarization, jets, etc.
