Scientific paper

The kinematic structures of giant extragalactic H II regions in spiral galaxies, irregular galaxies, and "isolated extragalactic H II regions" are studied. Line profiles were found to be broad (FWHM > 30 km s-1) throughout the core. Every region studied contains at least one "nucleus" with bright and, perhaps surprisingly, narrow emission lines. These data are discussed with regard to previous explanations for the large line widths observed in giant extragalactic H II regions.
