Modelling the ArH$^+$ emission from the Crab Nebula [PDF]
We have performed combined photoionization and photodissociation region (PDR) modelling of a Crab Nebula filament subjected to the synchrotron radiation from the central pulsar wind nebula, and to a high flux of charged particles; a greatly enhanced ...

How Green Banks can create multiple types of value in the transition to net zero emissions
Abstract Current levels of investment are insufficient to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement, and private sector funding shortfalls are acute. Despite this, little research has been undertaken into Green Banks, a new form of institution which mixes public and private institutional logics to mobilise additional private investment in the net zero ...

Emission Lines of Northern Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
AbstractIn this work, we present results of long slit spectrophotometric emission line flux observations of selected planetary nebulae (PNe). We have measured absolute fluxes and equivalent widths (EW) of all observable emission lines. In addition to these observations, electron temperatures (Te), densities (Ne), and chemical abundances were also ...

S II emission lines in Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
Emission lines arising from transitions in S II have been detected in a wide variety of astronomical sources, including planetary nebulae (Hyung, Keyes & Aller 1995). These transitions are used to derive information on emitting plasmas parameters (Te, Ne) through diagnostic line ratios, although to calculate these quantities reliably, accurate ...

High Resolution Infrared Imaging and Spectroscopy of the Pistol Nebula: Evidence for Ejection [PDF]
We present new NICMOS/HST infrared images and CGS4/UKIRT Br-alpha (4.05 um) spectroscopy of the Pistol Star and its associated nebula, finding strong evidence to support the hypothesis that the Pistol Nebula was ejected from the Pistol Star. The Pa-alpha

Spitzer Space Telescope Infrared Imaging and Spectroscopy of the Crab Nebula [PDF]
We present 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8.0, 24, and 70 micron images of the Crab Nebula obtained with the Spitzer Space Telescope IRAC and MIPS cameras, Low- and High-resolution Spitzer IRS spectra of selected positions within the nebula, and a near-infrared ground ...

High velocity structures in, and the X-ray emission from the LBV nebula around Eta Carinae [PDF]
The Luminous Blue Variable star Eta Carinae is one of the most massive stars known. It underwent a giant eruption in 1843 in which the Homunculus nebula was created.

GREAT [CII] and CO observations of the BD+40{\deg}4124 region [PDF]
The BD+40\degree4124 region was observed with high angular and spectral resolution with the German heterodyne instrument GREAT in CO J = 13 \rightarrow 12 and [CII] on SOFIA.

Maser emission in planetary nebulae [PDF]
AbstractStars at the top of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) can exhibit maser emission from molecules like SiO, H2O and OH. These masers appear in general stratified in the envelope, with the SiO masers close to the central star and the OH masers farther out in the envelope.

The Radio Properties and Magnetic Field Configuration in the Crab-like Pulsar Wind Nebula G54.1+0.3 [PDF]
We present a multifrequency radio investigation of the Crab-like pulsar wind nebula (PWN) G54.1+0.3 using the Very Large Array. The high resolution of the observations reveals that G54.1+0.3 has a complex radio structure which includes filamentary and ...
