Scientific paper

Using a composite model which consistently accounts for the coupled effect of shocks and photoionization by hot stars, we show that high-velocity (~400-600 kms-1) shocks in dense (~500-800 cm-3) clouds are necessary to reproduce some critical infrared line ratios observed by ISO in some typical nearby Starburst Nucleus Galaxies. These results are in good agreement with the powerful starburst-driven superwinds and highly pressured interstellar medium observed in these starburst galaxies.
