These observations were conducted in two distinct spectral ranges: 4332–5222 Å and 6097–7345 Å, with a high resolving power (RFWHM ∼ 6 000), and spatial resolution of 25 pc, considering the galaxy’s distance of 8.5 Mpc. Our observations have identified five H II regions, whose precise positions were determined using data from the Wide Field Camera 3 (ultraviolet and visible) of the Hubble Space Telescope, WFC3-UVIS/HST, archive images, where we also detected the associated blue underlying continuum linked to the ionized knots. A detailed kinematic analysis of these regions revealed low-velocity dispersion values (around 10 km s−1 ) in four H II regions, indicating a lack of significant turbulent events. In the fifth region, we observed a peak in velocity dispersion reaching 40 km s−1 , which we interpret as the result of hot star winds and/or a recent type-II supernova explosion. We have conducted a comprehensive spectral analysis of the H II regions, obtaining emission-line fluxes that enabled us to confirm the oxygen abundance (12 + log(O/H) = 7.41 ± 0.15) and, using POPSTAR models, to constrain the age and mass of the ionizing young clusters.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal article1365-2966https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae2483https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article/535/4/3088/7875245?login=trueopen access524galaxies: individual: SDSSJ0859+3923H ii regionsgalaxies: dwarfgalaxies: abundancesgalaxies: star formationAstrofísicaAstronomía (Física)2101.04 Galaxias
