Nebula-Relay Hypothesis: The Chirality of Biological Molecules in Molecular Clouds

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The chiral puzzle of biological molecules is thought to be closely related to the origin of life and is still a mystery so far. Previously, we proposed a new model on the origin of life, Nebula-Relay hypothesis, which assumed that the life on Earth ...

Numerical Models of Planetary Nebulae with Different Episodes of Mass Ejection: The Particular Case of HuBi 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We have studied the evolution of HuBi 1–like planetary nebulae, considering several stages of mass injection. We have carried out numerical ionization+1D hydrodynamics+atomic/ionic rate models with our code Coral1d to reproduce planetary nebulae that ...

The Effect of Superpositions on the Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Planetary nebula (PN) surveys in systems beyond ∼10 Mpc often find high-excitation, point-like sources with [O iii ] λ 5007 fluxes greater than the apparent bright-end cutoff of the planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF).

Surveying Planetary Nebulae Central Stars for Close Binaries: Constraining Evolution of Central Stars Based on Binary Parameters

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
The increase in discovered close binary central stars of planetary nebulae is leading to a sufficiently large sample to begin to make broader conclusions about the effect of close binary stars on common envelope evolution and planetary nebula formation ...

WORKPLANS: Workshop on Planetary Nebula Observations

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
This workshop is the second of the WORKPLANS series, which we started in 2016. The main goal of WORKPLANS is to build up a network of planetary nebulae (PNe) experts to address the main open questions in the field of PNe research.

ABOUT TEMPERATURE FIELDS AND CONDITIONS OF GASEOUS CONDENSATION OF NEBULAES IN THE PLANETARY VORTEX

open access: yesVìsnik Dnìpropetrovsʹkogo Unìversitetu: Serìâ Modelûvannâ, 2014
New exact solution of the spherically-axissymmetric Eiler's equations, called as plan­etary vortex, is applied to the problem of formation in planetary nebula germs of planets due to the condensation of gases in the areas of vortex instability which ...

Shaping of Planetary Nebulae by Exoplanets

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
(1) Background: We investigate the hypothesis that exoplanet engulfment can help explain the observed non-spherical planetary nebula population, as a complementary shaping mechanism to the binary hypothesis.

SBS 1150+599A: an extremely oxygen-poor planetary nebula in the Galactic halo? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We report results of a spectrophotometric study of SBS 1150+599A and discuss the nature of this object based upon our data. Our study shows that SBS 1150+599A is most probably a planetary nebula located in the Galactic halo and not a cataclysmic variable

M 1–92 Revisited: New Findings and Open Questions: New NOEMA Observations of Minkowski’s Footprint

open access: yesGalaxies, 2022
PN M 1–92, also known as Minkowski’s Footprint, is a textbook example of a massive pre-planetary nebula. It presents all the characteristics of this type of source: non-spherical symmetry (bipolar cylindrical symmetry in this case), high-velocity gas ...

The Real-Time Evolution of V4334 Sgr

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
V4334 Sgr (Sakurai’s object) is an enigmatic evolved star that underwent a very late thermal pulse a few years before its discovery in 1996. It ejected a new hydrogen-deficient nebula in the process. The source has been observed continuously since,
