Aerospace Research in Bulgaria (ISSN 0861-1432), No. 20, p. 126 - 130 (2005). In: Balkan Astronomical Meeting, BAM 2004, 14-18 June 2004, Rozhen, Bulgaria.. 2005, Vol. , p. -2005.
The Sy 1 galaxy Mrk 1040 and its close companion LEDA 212995 have been observed in several narrow spectral bands, as well as in the U and I bands, in order to look for possible interaction between them. The analysis of the observations shows a very strong point-like innermost center of Mrk 1040 that is from AGN, an irregular structure of the companion expected in the case of a star-forming region, and different star-forming regions in the stellar disk of Mrk 1040. No tidal tail of young stars between Mrk 1040 and LEDA 212995 has been identified.
