Abstract

We present the results of a program to identify so far unknown active nuclei (AGN) in galaxies. Candidate galactic nuclei have been selected for optical spectroscopy from a cross-correlation of the ROSAT all sky survey (RASS) bright source catalog with optical galaxy catalogs. In this paper we present results from the second optical observing run.
