Figure 7.
Emission-line surface brightness profile for the nebula around HE 0238−1904. The [O ii] and [O iii] profiles are extracted over a velocity interval of −600 to $600 \, \rm km \, s^{-1}$, and are circularly averaged at different distances from the quasar centroid. The profile of [O ii] declines smoothly as a function of radius, while the [O iii] exhibits shallower drop due to the bright knots seen in the narrow-band images.

Emission-line surface brightness profile for the nebula around HE 0238−1904. The [O ii] and [O iii] profiles are extracted over a velocity interval of −600 to |$600 \, \rm km \, s^{-1}$|⁠, and are circularly averaged at different distances from the quasar centroid. The profile of [O ii] declines smoothly as a function of radius, while the [O iii] exhibits shallower drop due to the bright knots seen in the narrow-band images.
