Properties of the HII Regions Derived Using Integral Field Spectroscopy

Figure 1

(a) Observed H Line intensity map in units of  erg  obtained by fitting a single Gaussian function to the H emission line for each single spectrum in the dataset. The intensity map is then reconstructed by interpolating the recovered flux at the location of each spectrum, as described in the text. (b) Observed H /H line ratio map. ((c) and (d)) Classical diagnostic line ratio maps. (c) [NII] 6583/H line ratio map. (d) [OIII] 5007/H line ratio map.
