Scientific paper

The existence of a narrow correlation between the linear diameters of giant H II regions in late-type spiral galaxies and the width of their global H-alpha emission is demonstrated by means of line profiles determined using interferometric techniques. The relation (diameter-line width) established in members of the Local and M81-NGC 2403 groups is applied to a redetermination of the distance to M101.
