The researches into extended emission line region (EELR) give us the valuable informations about the nucleus. A recent study of the EELR in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 by Yoshida and Ohtani (1993) have revealed that a strongly asymmetric radiation field in this typical Seyfert 1. They have suggested the anisotropy may be caused inside the BLR. It is important to examine if any other Seyfert 1 galaxy has an anisotropic nuclear radiation.The famous Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3516 has EELR which extends ∼ 10” on either side of the nucleus. The morphology of the EELR is Z-shape. This nearby (D=38.9Mpc) galaxy is of type SBO for which the object is expected to be free from contamination by HII regions and dust clouds.

NGC 1275, the Perseus cluster cD galaxy, is a well-known Seyfert 1 galaxy and also one of the strongest extragalactic radio sources (3C84). Although many studies have been done on the extended optical emission-line region of NGC 1275, which is thought to be associated with the X-ray cooling-flow phenomenon (e.g., Heckman et al. 1989, Ferruit and Pecontal 1994), the excitation mechanism of the emission-line gas and two-dimensional gas kinematics are still unclear. We made tri-dimensional spectroscopy of NGC 1275 in order to reveal two-dimensional kinematics and- the relation between the gas motion and the excitation of the emission lines.

NGC 7319 is a member of the compact group of galaxies known as Stephan’s Quintet. The systemic velocity 6740 km s−1 gives a distance of 90Mpc (H0= 75 kms−1 Mpc−1) for NGC 7319. This galaxy has a tail and/or ring which suggests interaction with a neighboring pair of galaxies, NGC 7318A and B (e.g., Arp 1973). Durret & Warrin (1990) and Durret (1994) performed optical long-slit spectroscopy and found an extended emission-line region (EELR) in NGC 7319. They detected highly excited gas over along PA = 61° and 10″ along PA – 151°. Apart from these works, there have not been any studies on the velocity field and excitation of the gas in the EELR of NGC 7319. More details were published by Aoki et al. (1996).

One of the primary goals of AGN variability studies has been to determine the size of broad-line region (BLR) through the reverberation mapping technique. In a recent international multiwavelength spectroscopic monitoring campaign, NGC 4151 has been observed intensively by ground-based telescopes for a period of over 2 months, with a typical temporal resolution of 1 day. The main result from this optical campaign is that finding the variation in the emission line flux (Hβ or Hα) lagging the continuum by 0-3 days (1993 campaign: Kaspi et al. 1996). This is in contrast to the past results in which a time lag of 9±2 days was found for the same emission line (1988 campaign: Maoz et al. 1991). Such a BLR “size problem” may be caused by a different variability timescale of the ionizing continuum or a real change in BLR gas distribution in the 5.5 yr interval between the two watch campaigns. In order to clarify which of the two possibilities is most likely the real case, we performed further reverberation analysis on both optical datasets.

It has been apparent for some time that comparison of continuum and emission-line light curves of AGN may enable determination of the dimensions and structure of the Broad Line Region (BLR)(see Peterson 1988, and references therein). Observations to this end (Antonucci and Cohen 1983, Peterson et al. 1985, Clavel et al. 1987) and their analysis using cross-correlation to find the time lag between line and continuum variations (Gaskell and Sparke 1986), indicate BLR sizes an order of magnitude smaller than allowed by standard photoionization models for several AGN. Gaskell and Peterson (1987) analyzed errors in the cross-correlation method as applied to AGN time series in general and specifically to the Seyfert galaxy Akn120. In order to generalize and extend their analysis we investigated the significance of BLR sizes derived by cross-correlation under different model assumptions and observational circumstances (Maoz and Netzer 1988).
