Low-ionization structures in planetary nebulae – I. Physical, kinematic and excitation properties [PDF]
Though the small-scale, low-ionization knots, filaments and jets (LISs) of planetary nebulae (PNe) are known for ~30yr, some of their observational properties are not well established.

The Search for Binaries in Post-Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: Do Binary Companions Shape the Nebulae? [PDF]
Binary companions are often invoked to explain the axial and point symmetry seen in the majority of planetary nebulae and proto-planetary nebulae (PPNs).

THE PROGENITORS AND LIFETIMES OF PLANETARY NEBULAE [PDF]
Planetary nebulae (PNe) are among the most spectacular objects produced by stellar evolution, but the exact identity of their progenitors has never been established for a large and homogeneous sample. We investigate the relationship between PNe and their

Sociology and The Complexity of What Is Missing
ABSTRACT What is ‘missed’ by sociological literature underpinned by assumptions of presence that a missing approach can rectify? I appropriate a metaphysics of presence and an alternative focus on what is missing as ontological foci to revisit complexity studies in sociology.

Millimetre Observations of Maser-Emitting Planetary Nebulae
Observations in the millimetre bands of maser-emitting planetary nebulae (PNe) are crucial to study their circumstellar molecular gas at the beginning of the PN phase.

Planetary systems and real planetary nebulae from planet destruction near white dwarfs [PDF]
Abnormal accumulation of TDP-43 and FUS proteins is found in a neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Here the authors show by modelling the disease in worms that these proteins activate local and distal immune responses, and blocking ...

Affective Infrastructure: Capitalism's Specters in the Ecovillage Findhorn Community
ABSTRACT The Ecovillage Findhorn Community (EFC) in Northeast Scotland seeks to live in harmony with nature. How the community has done this over its 60‐plus years has changed from social communalism, where residents lived in cheap caravans, to now mostly privately‐owned expensive ‘eco’ houses with green technology.

THE MASSES OF THE IONIZED GAS OF PLANETARY NEBULAE ENVELOPES IN LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD
The masses of ionized gas in the shells of planetary nebulae which belong in the Large Magellanic Cloud are calculated by three different ways. The value of mass is calculated for the cases: 1) spherical, 2) elliptical forms of envelopes and 3) commonly ...

A Preferred Orientation Angle for Bipolar Planetary Nebulae
We present preliminary results from measuring Galactic orientation angles of 766 elliptical and bipolar Planetary Nebulae (PNe) in the Hong Kong/Australian Astronomical Observatory/Strasbourg Observatory H-alpha Planetary Nebula research platform and ...

The fraction of type Ia supernovae exploding inside planetary nebulae (SNIPs) [PDF]
Using three independent directions we estimate that the fraction of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) exploding inside planetary nebulae (PNe), termed SNIPs,is at least ~20%. Our three directions are as follows.
