Example multiple Gaussian fits to the Hα+[N II] λλ 6548,6583 Å(top panels) and [O III] λ5007 Å(bottom panels) normalized emission profiles (see Sect. 3.5) for three of the six spaxels shown in Fig. 2. In the top panels we show the fitting process used for the Hα+[N II] λλ 6548, 6583 Å in a single nuclear spaxel: from left to right, we show: (1) the multiple Gaussian fit to Hα (one broad and one narrow component) and [N II] λλ 6548,6583 (one narrow component each) emission lines, (2) the same as (1) but with the broad Hα component subtracted, and (3) the subsequent double Gaussian fit to the Hα line. In the bottom panels, we present examples of Gaussian fits to the [O III] emission line in three different spaxels; the AICc is used to choose between a single or double Gaussian fit. In spaxel 30,12 (to the N) a single Gaussian provides a better fit, while in the spaxels near to the nucleus (16,33) and to the E (24,42) double Gaussians are required.
