Properties of the HII Regions Derived Using Integral Field Spectroscopy

Figure 5

(a) IFS-based H maps, in units of erg  arcsec−2, derived for two representative galaxies of the sample (color images), together with the detected HII regions shown as black segmented contours. (b) Radial distribution of the oxygen abundance derived for the individual HII regions with abundance errors below 0.15 dex, as a function of the deprojected distance (i.e., corrected for inclination), normalized to the effective radius, for the same galaxies. The size of the circles is proportional to the H intensity.
