Radial velocity of ionized gas
Left: radial velocity of the ionized gas, corresponding to the main integral field observed. Note the position of the optical nucleus at the upper right of the CIRPASS field, the bulge center, and the intruder nucleus inside the yellow circle. Right: image generated from the continuum in the spectral region of 1.28 microns. The achieved resolution is 0.6 arcseconds.
