Description
We present deep images on the Hα emission plus an adjacent continuum obtained with OSIRIS/GTC, using the TF red in scanning mode for the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 938. We detect HII regions so far (35 kpc) and two filaments with diffuse emission in the Hα pure images. We obtain Hα fluxes and we estimate velocities for these regions.
