Gas Kinematics of the Disk and Bar of the Galaxy Mrk 533

Abstract

The Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 533 has the morphological description of SA(r)bc pec in RC3 and SBb in UGC. It is a member of the compact group of galaxies H96. Radio observations (Unger et al. 1988) show three radio sources.3-D observations with a Fabry-Perot scanning interferometer (the number of spectral channels is 32 by 0.44 Å, angular size of 1 px is , the accuracy of radial velocity determination is 10 km s−1) and multi-pupil integral spectrograph observations (the dispersion is 1.16 Å px−1, lens array is 10×16, angular size of each lens is × ) were obtained in the red spectral range at the 6-m telescope. The estimated seeing was about 2″. In the central region of the galaxy (r ≥ 5″, interferometer observations) the Hα line profile was fitted by two Gaussians. The first component, Kl, corresponds to the galaxy disk. The second component, K2, is visible only in the central part and is brighter than K1 in the same pixels. Profiles of Hα and [NII] Λ6584/48 (integral spectroscopy observations) were fitted by two Gaussians. They are a broad component in Hα and [NII] with FWHM ~ 1000 km s−1 and a narrow component of three times less FWHM. The lower spectral resolution of this observation made it impossible to separate the narrow component into the two ones visible in the Fabry-Perot observations.
