Scientific paper

Spectrometry is reported for two Zwicky compact galaxies, I Zw 92 and III Zw 77, which have broad emission lines. They are of types Sy 2 and Sy 1, respectively. III Zw 77 has several notable features, including the prominence of forbidden Fe VII, a preference for forbidden Fe II over Fe II, the presence of Bowen fluorescence lines of O III and (probably) N III, and an atypical Balmer line profile. Its Fe/Ne abundance ratio appears to be approximately solar, in contrast to those of several other Seyferts. Line emission has serious effects on the broad-band color of I Zw 92 and probably other Sy 2's as well. A mass is derived for I Zw 92.
