SATELLITE: Application to Planetary Nebulae IFU Data
The integral field unit (IFU) spectroscopic view of extended ionized nebulae, such as planetary nebulae (PNe), H II regions, and galaxies, has changed the approach of studying these objects, providing a simultaneous characterization in both spatial ...

The Green Bank Telescope H II Region Discovery Survey: IV. Helium and Carbon Recombination Lines [PDF]
The Green Bank Telescope H II Region Discovery Survey (GBT HRDS) found hundreds of previously unknown Galactic regions of massive star formation by detecting hydrogen radio recombination line (RRL) emission from candidate H II region targets.

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 ...

Spatially Resolved Temperature and Density Structures of Nearby H ii Regions
Photoionization models frequently assume constant temperature or density within H ii regions. We investigate this assumption by measuring the detailed temperature and density structures of four H ii regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small ...

On the Excitation and Formation of Circumstellar Fullerenes [PDF]
We compare and analyze the Spitzer mid-infrared spectrum of three fullerene-rich planetary nebulae in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds; Tc1, SMP SMC16, and SMP LMC56. The three planetary nebulae share many spectroscopic similarities. The strongest

Probing the Pulsar Wind Nebula of PSR B0355+54 [PDF]
We present XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray observations of the middle-aged radio pulsar PSR B0355+54. Our X-ray observations reveal emission not only from the pulsar itself, but also from a compact diffuse component extending ~50'' in the opposite direction

On the integrated continuum radio spectrum of supernova remnant W44 (G34.7-0.4): New insights from Planck [PDF]
In this paper, the integrated continuum radio spectrum of supernova remnant (SNR) W44 was analyzed up to 70 GHz, testing the different emission models that can be responsible for its particular shape.

The contribution of unresolved sources on the gamma-ray spectrum of molecular clouds [PDF]
Fermi-LAT observations of the large-scale diffuse gamma-ray emission unveiled that in some locations, towards the inner Galaxy, the spectrum of this component is harder than the local one, measured at the Earth position. If this signal is associated with

The contribution of Galactic TeV pulsar wind nebulae to Fermi large area telescope diffuse emission
Cosmic Rays (CRs) with energy below 1 PeV are believed to originate in the Milky Way, but recent gamma-ray observations by Fermi Large Area Telescope challenge the interpretation of CR diffusion mechanisms across the galaxy.

The Continuum Emission from Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
The study of nebular continuum emission is important for several reasons (Pottasch 1984, Planetary Nebulae, Dordrecht: Reidel). First of all, it can provide information about the temperature and the density of the nebula, when the object is large enough, or when the central star is weak enough, so that the nebular continuum is easily observed without ...
