Scientific paper

A catalog of galaxies whose optical spectra contain strong broad emission lines and continua, probably of nonthermal origin, has been completed. The catalog contains about 900 objects, about 700 of which have z of 0.2 or less. A histogram of the redshift distribution for all of the objects in the redshift range 0.02-0.2 and with a large peak at z = 0.06 is shown. Possible interpretations of the peak, which was first seen in 1968, are considered. It is concluded that the only way to explain the peak (and others like it that make up a series of peaks) and still maintain the cosmological redshift hypothesis is to go to cosmological models in which the universe has a multiply connected topology.
