Scientific paper

The authors present theoretical spectra of an active galactic nucleus undergoing bursts of star formation. The spectra are based on the dynamical models by Loose et al. (1982), in which the authors investigated a mechanism that leads to repetitive bursts of star formation even in our galactic center. Detailed calculations are performed for the optical and infrared region. They are complemented by simple estimates for the thermal and nonthermal radio emission and the X-ray flux. Comparison of the spectra with the data on the nuclear region of two nearby and well studied galaxies, M82 and NGC 253, shows encouraging agreement.
