IMAGING THE ELUSIVE H-POOR GAS IN THE HIGH adf PLANETARY NEBULA NGC 6778 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present the first direct image of the high-metallicity gas component in a planetary nebula (NGC 6778), taken with the OSIRIS Blue Tunable Filter centered on the O ii λ4649+50 Å optical recombination lines (ORLs) at the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias.

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,

A REVISED PLANETARY NEBULA LUMINOSITY FUNCTION DISTANCE TO NGC 628 USING MUSE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Distance uncertainties plague our understanding of the physical scales relevant to the physics of star formation in extragalactic studies. The planetary nebulae luminosity function (PNLF) is one of very few techniques that can provide distance estimates ...

Proto-Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1993
The progress in the search for proto-planetary nebulae (PPN) in the last 5 years is reviewed. An observational definition of PPN is developed and a list of current PPN candidates is given. The optical, infrared, and radio properties of PPN are summarized and compared with theoretical models.

Deciphering the bipolar planetary nebula Abell 14 with 3D ionization and morphological studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Abell 14 is a poorly studied object despite being considered a born again planetary nebula. We performed a detailed study of its 3D morphology and ionization structure using the SHAPE and MOCASSIN codes.

SMC SMP 24: A Newly Radio-Detected Planetary Nebula in the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2010
In this paper we report a new radio-continuum detection of an extragalactic planetary nebula (PN): SMC~SMP~24. We show the radio-continuum image of this PN and present the measured radio data.

SALT HRS discovery of a long-period double-degenerate binary in the planetary nebula NGC 1360 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Whether planetary nebulae (PNe) are predominantly the product of binary stellar evolution as some population synthesis models (PSM) suggest remains an open question.

Complex molecules in the Orion Kleinmann-Low nebula

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences, 2014
In the framework of the delivery to the early Earth of extraterrestrial molecules, we have studied complex molecular species toward the Orion Kleinmann-Low nebula. This nebula is rich in molecules as well as in nascent stars and planetary systems.

Integral Field Spectroscopy of Planetary Nebulae with MUSE

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
The Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) is a large integral field unit mounted on the ESO Very Large Telescope. Its spatial (60 arcsecond field) and wavelength (4800–9300Å) coverage is well suited to detailed imaging spectroscopy of extended ...
