1H0419-577: a two-state Seyfert Galaxy?

The preliminary results of the BeppoSAX observation of the radio-quiet AGN 1H0419-577 are presented. Despite its broad line optical spectrum, the intermediate X-ray spectrum (i.e. 2--10 keV) is flatter than typically observed in Seyfert 1s and no iron line is significantly detected. Even more intriguingly, a 1992 ROSAT pointed observation suggests a dramatic (~ 1) change in the spectral shape for E < 2 keV. Such behavior is briefly discussed in the framework of our current understanding of Comptonization scenarios in the nuclear regions of radio-quiet AGN.

Preliminary Results from the ESO Slice Project (ESP)

We present the first results of a galaxy redshift survey, ESO Slice Project (ESP), we are accomplishing as an ESO Key-Project over about 30 square degrees in a region near the South Galactic Pole. The limiting magnitude is b_J = 19.4. Observations have been almost completed and about 90% of the data obtained so far has been reduced providing about 3000 galaxy redshifts. We present some preliminary results concerning the large scale galaxy distribution and their luminosity function.

Preliminary Results from the ESO Slice Project (ESP)

We present the first results of a galaxy redshift survey, ESO Slice Project (ESP), we are accomplishing as an ESO Key--Project over about 40 square degrees in a region near the South Galactic Pole. The limiting magnitude is $b_J = 19.4$. Up to now $\sim 85\%$ of the observations has been completed and $\sim 65\%$ of the data has been reduced providing $\sim 2000$ galaxy redshifts. We present some preliminary results concerning the large scale galaxy distribution, the luminosity function and the properties of galaxies with spectra showing prominent emission lines.
