Line Formation in the Inner Starburst Regions of AGN

arXiv:astro-ph/0302442

Abstract

We review the evidence for young stellar populations in the inner (< 200 pc) regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and the physical mechanisms through which the stars can potentially create the emission lines that characterize AGN.
