Their ratios, as compared with the ones obtained from the mosaic exposure are, again, in good agreement. Thus, we only show the measured line intensities coming from the first pointing exposure. In Tables 3.5 and 3.6 the total reddening-corrected Hβ intensity (I tot (Hβ)) measured in the mosaic is also given. As it can be appreciated, the total flux is between a factor of 2 or 3 higher than the value measured in the one single pointing. The Hβ flux of the emission knots amounts to about 50% of the total PPak field-ofview flux, with knot A, B, C, and D contributing 38%, 2%, 7%, and 3% to the total flux, respectively. Knot A is the brightest of them and provides 75% of the combined flux from the four knots. Electron densities and temperatures The physical conditions of the ionized gas, including electron temperature and electron density, have been derived using the five-level statistical equilibrium atom approximation in the task temden of the STSDAS package of the software IRAF. For details of the equations involved, the reader is referred to Appendix B. We have taken as sources of error the uncertainties associated with the measurement of the emission-line fluxes and the reddening
