Scientific paper

NGC 1068 is a well-studied Seyfert type 2 AGN. Because of its proximity, it is one of the brightest Seyferts observed. Its nuclear region harbors a variety of astrophysical phenomena connected to physical conditions in the NLR and its emission lines. The relative importance of photoionization from the nucleus and shocks produced by jets has been long debated. To help resolve this controversy, we have carried out long-slit spectroscopy in the near-IR and present here for the first time spectroscopy of the whole range from 0.8 to 2.4 μm for this galaxy over 15″ in the nuclear region.
