Scientific paper

A model is developed in which the radio emission of nuclei of Seyfert galaxies emerges in the regions of formation of their narrow emission lines, R equal to 100 pc. Gaseous clouds, producing this emission, are moving in the surrounding hot gas and induce shock waves. The latter accelerate electrons, which produce radio emission via the synchrotron mechanism. The model explains an observational correlation between the radio and optical properties of Seyfert galaxies and makes some predictions on the parameters of the region R equal to 100 pc.
