Chemical Synthesis in the Circumstellar Environment
We discuss the spectral distinctions between B[e] stars and compact planetary nebulae. The differentiation between proto-planetary nebulae, transition objects between the asymptotic giant branch and planetary nebulae, and reflection nebulae in binary ...

Mining of the Milky Way Star Archive Gaia-DR2. Searching for Binary Stars in Planetary Nebulae
The aim of this work is to search for binary stars associated to planetary nebulae (ionized stellar envelopes in expansion), by mining the astronomical archive of Gaia DR2, that is composed by around 1.7 billion stellar sources.

Planetary Nebulae Embryo after a Common Envelope Event
In the centers of some planetary nebulae are found close binary stars. The formation of those planetary nebulae was likely through a common envelope event, which transformed an initially-wide progenitor binary into the currently observed close binary ...

Planetary Nebulae and the Ionization of the Interstellar Medium in Galaxies
We discuss the role of planetary nebulae and their progeny in galaxy context in terms of ionization of the galaxy interstellar medium. This regards ionized gas outside the disk of spiral galaxies, the diffuse ionized medium in spiral galaxies, and the ...

Current Unsolved Problems in Planetary Nebulae Research
While there has been significant progress in our understanding of the origin and evolution of planetary nebulae in the last 50 years, there remain several unsolved problems.

The morphology of dust emission in Planetary Nebulae and proto-Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
This review covers recent results from ground based mid-infrared (mid–IR; 8–25μm) imaging of thermal dust emission. The mid–IR images of proto–PNe show evidence for axially symmetric superwinds. In young PNe, the dust appears to be well mixed with the gas in the ionized gas regions.

Analysis of Multiple Shell Planetary Nebulae Based on HST/WFPC2 Extended 2D Diagnostic Diagrams
The investigation of gaseous nebulae, emitting in forbidden lines, is often based extensively on diagnostic diagrams. The special physics of these lines often allows for disentangling with a few line ratios normally coupled thermodynamic parameters like ...

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Imaging polarimetry of planetary and proto-planetary nebulae [PDF]
Optical imaging polarimetry has been performed on a small sample of objects which are associated with that stage of stellar evolution occurring between the Asymptotic Giant Branch and full Planetary Nebula. Three such systems are considered, specifically,
