Scientific paper

Starburst-AGN connection is one of the most important and hotly debated issues in the study of active galaxies. In this paper, we summarize the observational evidence for nuclear starbursts in AGNs and how we know about the nuclear star-forming activities in Seyfert 2 galaxies. We also summarize the possibilities of the existence of two types of Seyfert 2 galaxies (the hidden Seyfert 1 galaxies and the "real" Seyfert 2 galaxies without BLR). By comparing properties of multiwavelength of Seyfert 2 galaxies with polarized broad emission lines (PBL) with those without, it is found that Seyfert 2 galaxies with PBL are the same objects as Seyfert 1 galaxies, while Seyfert 2 galaxies without PBL are more likely starburst, and these Seyfert 2 galaxies are the "real" Seyfert 2 galaxies without broad emission lines regions intrinsically.
