Primer on Formation and Evolution of Hydrogen-Deficient Central Stars of Planetary Nebulæ and Related Objects

open access: yesGalaxies
We present a brief review of the formation and evolution of hydrogen-deficient central stars of planetary nebulae. We include a detailed description of the main observable features of both the central stars and their surrounding nebulae and review their ...

Distances to Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1989
Finding distances to planetary nebulae remains a frustrating undertaking, but significant progress has been made over the past several years. This review covers primarily work done on distances since 1980, with some references to earlier papers. Some interesting new methods have been tried recently and some methods that have been used for years have ...

New insights into the physical state of gaseous nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes
The impact of knowledge of H II regions, planetary nebulae and supernova remnants due to International Ultraviolet Explorer is examined. The more relevant aspects related to the physical conditions of gaseous nebulae are reviewed.

Nuclei of Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1973
In 1969 Aller and I collected information about the spectra of emission-line nuclei of planetary nebulae. (See also Aller, 1967, for classification of both emission and absorption spectra.) We classified them and compared them to the spectra of Population I stars. Our idea was to follow this general classification by detailed observation and comparison

Dust in planetary nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016
AbstractInfrared spectra from the Spitzer Space Telescope trace the evolution of carbon-rich dust from the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) to young planetary nebulae (PNe). On the AGB, amorphous carbon dominates the dust, but SiC and MgS also appear. In more evolved systems with warmer central stars, the spectra reveal the unidentified 21 μm feature ...
