Scientific paper

A complete investigation of the UV characteristics of the starburst knots in the inner 3 kpc region of NGC 1068 mapped by the IUE is presented. It is noted that these knots probably represent the most luminous H II regions yet studied at optical and UV wavelengths. Comparisons suggest that the brightest knot, knot 1, is 30 times brighter than NGC 604 in M33 and has a total luminosity of not less than 10 to the 43rd ergs/s.
