Scientific paper

As part of a larger survey of nearby infrared luminous galaxies (LIR>1011,L&sun;), we have obtained an R=2000 spectroscopic datacube of infrared-luminous starburst/Seyfert composite galaxy NGC 1365, using the SMARTS 1.5m telescope at CTIO. The spectra have 2.6'' spatial resolution, and emission lines are mapped out to 24'' away from the nucleus, using the SMARTS 1.5m telescope at CTIO. We present maps of line fluxes, line ratios, and velocities of the ionized gas as measured from the emission lines. These measurements allow us to determine the spatial extent of the starburst in the galaxy, and to measure kinematic signatures both of the AGN activity in the nucleus and any outflows or winds associated with the starburst.
