Examples of our multi-component Gaussian fit decomposition for two continuum-subtracted spectra of I13120, extracted from single spaxels at ∼1″ (top panels) and 2″ (bottom) south-east of the nucleus. The red curves show the best-fit solutions in the Hβ–[OIII] (left) and Hα–[NII] (right) regions; all emission lines are fitted simultaneously. The vertical solid lines mark the rest-frame wavelength of the emission lines, derived from the stellar velocities of the nuclear spectrum; the vertical dot-dashed blue lines mark instead the local stellar systemic (i.e. at the position of the spaxel from which the spectrum is extracted). These examples demonstrate the diversity of emission-line profiles observed in the FoV of a single target: the spectrum in panels a is dominated by broad and blueshifted Gaussian components, while the one in panels b is dominated by bright narrow Gaussians close to the systemic velocity (for all but the [OIII] lines).
