19 pags. 16 figs. A study is presented of the central structure and kinematics of the galaxy NGC 6951, by means of broad band B{\arcminIJK} images and high resolution high dispersion longslit spectroscopy, together with archival HST WFPC2 V and NICMOS2 J and H images. We find that there is little on...
