Abstract
The very luminous infrared source IRAS 23532 +2513 coincides with a co mpact group of galaxies including MCG 04-01-002, MCG 04-01-003 and MCG 04-01-004. Spectroscopic observations show that the bright-nucleus ga laxy MCG 04-01-002 is a Seyfert 1 and the disturbed spiral galaxy MCG 04-01-003 is a starburst galaxy. CCD images in V band reveal that clea r tidal interaction exists between those two objects. This is another example of tidal interaction triggering starburst and Seyfert activity .
