Abundances and fraction of diffuse ionized emission in the central regions of LIRGs.

Galaxy 12 + log (O/H) DIG fraction
NICMOS 2  ×  MW – MW

NGC 23 8.8 6−32
MCG +12-02-001 8.7 9−35
UGC 1845 8.7 1−16
NGC 2388 8.8 2−17
MCG +02-20-003 8.7 24−60
NGC 5936 8.9 1−16
NGC 6701 8.9 4−28
NGC 7469 2−23
NGC 7591 8.9 47−76
NGC 7771 8.9 1−10

Notes. The abundances are derived using the O3N2 index measured in the integrated PMAS spectra (Sect. 6.2). The NICMOS DIG fractions are from H ii region photometry on the HST/NICMOS Paα images. The 2 × MW and MW DIG fractions are from comparing the spatially resolved [S ii]λ6717/Hα ratios in our LIRGs with those of the Milky Way H ii regions and DIG (see Sect. 6.3 for details).
