Scientific paper

This paper presents UV spectroscopy of a circumnuclear starburst knot in
the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, a close-by active galaxy which has some
of the most luminous known starburst knots. The spectrum shows the
presence of several thousand O and B stars which appear to have formed
about 3 million years ago.
