Any other ideas?• Possibility 2: density fluctuations in chemicallyhomogeneous gas– Very dense <strong>regions</strong> (n e ~10 6 cm -3 ) would quenchemission of [O III] 4959,5007 lines– [O III]4363 has higher critical density and is notquenched. Therefore [O III] ratio underestimated,T e overestimated, CEL abundancesunderestimated.Measuring density of hydrogen gas (through method wehaven’t seen) rules this out
