摘要
The Spitzer IR,S high resolution spectra of about 90 Seyfert galaxies from the 12 mu m Galaxy Sample are presented and discussed. These represent about 70% of the total complete sample of local Seyfert galaxies. The presence of starburst components in these galaxies can be quantified by powerful mid-IR diagnostics tools (i.e. 11.25 mu m PAH feature equivalent width and the H-2 emission line intensity) as well as the AGN dominance can be measured by specific fine structure line ratios (e.g. [NeV]/[NeII], [NeV]/[SiII], etc.). The observed line ratios are compared to the results of semianalytical models, which can be used to compute the AGN and starburst contributions to the total luminosity of the galaxies.
