Extended He ii 4686 emission in Markarian 387

description ABSTRACT In order to explore the effect of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) on the interstellar medium of its host galaxy, we selected a promising case for study, Markarian 387 (Mrk 387), based on the strength of its extended He ii 4686 emission, a high-ionization line that can be excited by a hard source of radiation. We use area-resolved spectroscopy from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey and the availability of additional multiwavelength data. Besides harbouring an obscured AGN and the extended He ii 4686 emission, Mrk 387 has a number of other unusual properties, including a high far-infrared luminosity, a low neutral hydrogen mass compared to the stellar mass, a high Hα luminosity and high Hα equivalent width throughout the disc, and strong He i 5876 in the exterior regions. He ii 4686 and [O iii] 5008 extend with a bilateral morphology beyond 6 kpc from the nucleus. We interpret this emission as due to photoionization from the central source, where the interstellar medium must be sufficiently porous to allow the ionizing flux to reach these relatively distant regions.
