摘要
We present optical high-spectral-resolution long-slit observations of massive star formation regions in the nearby galaxies M101, NGC 2403, and M33 obtained with the WHT. We have constructed velocity, line dispersion and intensity maps using between 6 and 12 parallel slits in each case. We will present the data for seven regions: NGC 5455, NGC 5461, NGC 5471 in M101; three regions in NGC 2403; and NGC 595 in M33. We will also present a detailed study of the different profiles found across the regions, paying special attention to the presence of supersonic profiles and multiple components.
