Abstract:
We present a list of objects observed to have extended line emission
in our spectroscopic survey of infrared-warm AGN. Slit spectroscopic
data were obtained for 225 galaxies identified with objects in our
compendium of warm sources from the IRAS Point Source Catalog. Of
these, 44 have spatially-resolved emission-line regions along the
(arbitrarily placed) slit direction. Measured (projected) linear sizes
of the ionized gas regions extend to >10kpc. In the case of the IRAS
Seyfert galaxies the spatially extended line emission appears to have
a lower ionization state than the nuclear emission. This contrasts
with the warm IRAS starbust galaxies for which there is no significant
difference between the ionization states of the nuclear and extended
emission. For the starburst galaxies, there is a relation between the
extent of star formation as seen at Hα and the far-IR colors,
with more compact bursts having "warmer" colors.

Note (1): notes are numbered as follows:
1 = Possibly extended. Stated size is uncertain.
2 = IRAS 0032-617SW. This galaxy has a long tidal arm. The line profile along
the slit has two peaks of emission, but the continuum profile has a
single maximum. The line-emitting regions are about 4" apart and H II-type
3 = IRAS 0033-819. A ring-shaped galaxy with two brightness enhancements, 11"
apart, both strong line emitters.
4 = IRAS 0141+020 (Markarian 573). The Seyfert-like emission extends out
to 3.4" on either side of the nucleus, including relatively strong [O I].
This emission has been examined by Afanasiev & Sil'chenko (1991) and by
Tsvetanov & Walsh (1992) from kinematic and ionization standpoints.
5 = IRAS 0146-615. This galaxy has a long tidal arm. Along the slit, two peaks
of emission are seen, both in line and continuum. The peaks are 8" apart
and both are H II-type.
6 = IRAS 0225-103 (Markarian 1039). This galaxy hosts two H II-type
nuclei, 24" apart.
7 = IRAS 0229-368 (IC 1816). The Seyfert-like spectrum extends as far as 3.4"
east of the nucleus, including relatively strong [O I]. The nuclear
[O III] lines are spectrally resolved, FWHM=900km/s, whereas the extended
line-emission is narrower, FWHM<500km/s.
8 = IRAS 0240-002 (NGC 1068). The nuclear emission lines have a FWHM of
about 1200km/s, whereas the extranuclear emission is unresolved
spectrally, FWHM<200km/s.
9 = IRAS 0302-729. The nuclear emission lines are spectrally resolved, with
FWHM=1300km/s, the extended emission lines are unresolved, FWHM<500km/s.
10 = IRAS 0310-515. This galaxy has a long tidal arm. The brightness profile
along the slit shows two peaks of emission, 7.4" apart. Both have Seyfert
spectra.
11 = IRAS 1703+606. An interacting pair, with a Seyfert and a starburst
galaxy 6.5" apart, at almost the same redshift.
12 = IRAS 1855+716. An interacting pair, two starburst galaxies 6.7" apart,
almost same redshift. The line-emission (especially [O II]3727) forms a
bridge between them.
13 = IRAS 1908-539. This galaxy has a highly irregular morphology. The emission
line- and continuum-profiles along the slit show double structure, two
peaks separated by 20". One has a Seyfert spectrum and the other is
H II-type.
14 = IRAS 2048-572 (PKS 2048-57). This object has a Seyfert-like spectrum
extending by at least 4" on either side of the nucleus, including
relatively strong [O I]. There is a large velocity gradient, the emission
lines 3" east and west of the nucleus being shifted by 230km/s red- and
bluewards respectively, relative to the nucleus.
15 = IRAS 2117-492. An interacting pair of starburst galaxies 41" apart,
at almost the same redshift. The line emission in the eastern galaxy is
extended by at least 24".
