Abstract

Observational data on galaxies displaying ultraviolet excesses in their spectra included in a survey compiled at the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory are considered and discussed. The characteristic physical properties of active galaxies with UV excesses are considered, as well as the unusual morphologies in their central regions. In spite of numerous studies of these galaxies, their physical nature remains incompletely understood. The results of the analysis of the problems associated with the peculiarities of UV galaxies are presented.
