Planetary Nebulae: An Introductory Review [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983
Planetary nebulae constitute a popular field of investigation because they offer a unique opportunity to study the final stages of stellar evolution before a star dies. They supply challenges not only to the stellar evolution expert but also to the spectroscopist, to the student of galactic structure, and to all observers, whether one works in the ...

Advanced aqueous alteration in primitive meteorites: Micro‐ to nanoscale studies of CR1 iron sulfides

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study documents micro‐ to nanoscale observations of primary nebular and secondary parent body iron sulfides in the CR1 GRO 95577. Despite the extensive alteration of the bulk sample, some primary sulfides managed to avoid alteration, having originally formed in the solar nebula during chondrule formation by either fission‐sulfidization or

Planetary and Proto-Planetary Nebulae which are Strong 25µm Emitters

open access: yes, 1993
The IRAS Point Source Catalogue containing about 250,000 sources has yielded a large number of previously unknown planetary nebulae (PNe) and a smaller number of proto-planetary nebulae (PPNe).

THE MASSES OF THE IONIZED GAS OF PLANETARY NEBULAE ENVELOPES IN LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2013
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 ...

Mineralogy, mineral chemistry, and redox equilibria in ten aggregate particles from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Examination of 10 Bennu aggregate particles has revealed the presence of many phases which taken together can provide constraints on the oxygen fugacity (fO2) of Bennu samples. Phyllosilicates (saponite and serpentine), carbonates, oxides (magnetite, chromite), sulfides (pyrrhotite, pentlandite), phosphate (hydroxyapatite, Na‐Mg‐phosphate ...

Evaluating maturity of organic matter in hydrated C1 and CM‐like clasts and a dehydrated clast within a polymict eucrite and a howardite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Volatile‐rich xenolithic clasts in different types of brecciated meteorites represent unique pristine solar system material. This study investigates the maturity and thermal history of organic matter using Raman spectroscopy and aqueous alteration effects using infrared spectroscopy in the matrix of 15 volatile‐rich clasts (C1 and CM‐like ...

Ancient ‘ghost’ planetary nebulae discovered with amateur telescopes

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
As planetary nebulae evolve, they fade and dissipate into the surrounding interstellar medium, which makes them harder to detect. Modern, advanced amateur equipment can help to uncover this hidden population of ancient ‘ghost’ planetary nebulae.

Origin and formation of a chondritic xenolith in Krymka (LL3.2, breccia): Indications for a late formation of the accretionary breccia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract An unusual chondritic xenolith was found in two sequentially prepared thin sections of a sample from the Krymka (LL3.2) chondrite. The xenolith has a rounded, slightly deformed shape of about 5 mm in apparent diameter and is partially surrounded by a double rim made of an inner fine‐grained silicate‐rich rim and an outer sulfide‐rich rim.
