Abstract
We continue the program of spectroscopic observations of objects from the Second Byurakan Survey (SBS). This survey contains more than 1300 galaxies and 1700 starlike objects with mpg < 19.5. Our work is directed toward the construction of a complete sample of faint Markarian galaxies. Here we present spectroscopic data for 43 galaxies. Among them six new Seyfert galaxies are found: namely, two Seyfert 1's (SBS 1343+544, 1433+500), one Seyfert 2 (SBS 1620+545), and three likely Seyfert 2's (SBS 1205+556, 1344+527, 1436+597). SBS 1343+544 is a very high luminosity Seyfert galaxy. In the sample reported here, another 36 emission-line galaxies are spectroscopically confirmed. Thus far, 102 SBS galaxies brighter than 17.5 mag have been observed with the Cananea 2.1 m telescope at the Guillermo Haro Observatory. The apparent magnitude and redshift distributions, the spectral classification, the relative intensities of emission lines, and other parameters, as well as slit spectra for all 43 observed galaxies, are presented.
