Scientific paper

We propose to obtain high-resolution deep X-ray images with CHANDRA for the two nearest Seyfert 2 galaxies with known bright ultraviolet emitting nuclear star-forming rings. The requested CHANDRA images will allow for the first time to separate the compact point-like AGN component from the extended diffuse starburst emission and therefore: (a) investigate the starburst - AGN connection in Seyferts at high-energies (e.g. in the 0.1 to 10 keV range), (b) characterize the instrinsic X-ray AGN emission in these sources, and (c) quantify the contribution of starbursts to the X-ray emission in Seyferts as a function of energy range from the UV (0.01 kev, available HST images), to soft- (0.1-2 keV) and hard- (2-10 kev) X-rays
