THE CHANDRA PLANETARY NEBULA SURVEY (ChanPlaNS). II. X-RAY EMISSION FROM COMPACT PLANETARY NEBULAE [PDF]
We present results from the most recent set of observations obtained as part of the Chandra X-ray observatory Planetary Nebula Survey (ChanPlaNS), the first comprehensive X-ray survey of planetary nebulae (PNe) in the solar neighborhood (i.e., within ∼1 ...

The influence of planetary nebula gas density fluctuations to its emission line spectra
The set of spheric-simmetrical photoionization models of planetary nebula luminescence for different radial gas density distributions for central stars temperatures T = 50000 K and T = 100000 K was created.

Understanding Lyman-alpha Nebulae at Low Redshift I: The Sizes, Powering, and Kinematics of "Green Bean" Galaxies [PDF]
A new but rare sample of spatially extended emission line nebulae, nicknamed "Green Beans", was discovered at z~0.3 thanks to strong [OIII] emission, and subsequently shown to be local cousins of the Lyman-alpha (Lya) nebulae found at high redshift.

Herschel spectral mapping of the Helix nebula (NGC 7293) - Extended CO photodissociation and OH+ emission [PDF]
Context. The Helix nebula (NGC 7293) is our closest planetary nebulae. Therefore, it is an ideal template for photochemical studies at small spatial scales in planetary nebulae. Aims.

MAGIC very large zenith angle observations of the Crab Nebula up to 100 TeV [PDF]
Aims. We measure the Crab Nebula γ-ray spectral energy distribution in the ~100 TeV energy domain and test the validity of existing leptonic emission models at these high energies. Methods.

Evidence for the Disruption of a Planetary System During the Formation of the Helix Nebula
The persistence of planetary systems after their host stars evolve into their post-main-sequence phase is poorly constrained by observations. Many young white dwarf systems exhibit infrared excess emission and/or spectral absorption lines associated with

VARIABLE GAMMA-RAY EMISSION FROM THE CRAB NEBULA: SHORT FLARES AND LONG “WAVES” [PDF]
Gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula has been recently shown to be unsteady. In this paper, we study the flux and spectral variability of the Crab above 100 MeV on different timescales ranging from days to weeks.

A Concordance Picture of FRB 121102 as a Flaring Magnetar Embedded in a Magnetized Ion–Electron Wind Nebula [PDF]
The fast radio burst FRB 121102 has repeated multiple times, enabling the identification of its host galaxy and of a spatially coincident, compact, steady (“persistent”) radio synchrotron source.
