Discovery of Faint Nebulosity around a Z Camelopardalis–type Cataclysmic Variable in Antlia: Nova Shell or Ancient Planetary Nebula?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report our discovery of a faint nebula surrounding a previously little-studied 15th mag variable star, ASASSN-19ds, in the Southern Hemisphere constellation Antlia. Spectra verify that the star is a cataclysmic variable (CV).

The Formation of Binary and Single Nuclei of Planetary Nebulae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1993
We model the evolution of binary systems and explore the possibilities of formation of single and binary planetary nebula nuclei (PNNs). Under the assumption that all stars are born in binary systems, we obtain a Galactic rate of PNN formation of 0.87 yr -1 .

The Formation of Single and Binary Nuclei of Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1993
The present birthrate of binaries may be written as where M1 is the mass of the primary in M⊙, 0 < q ≤ 1 — mass ratio of components, A — semimajor axis of the orbit in R⊙. The Eq.(1) implies that all stars are born as binaries with 10 ≤ A/R⊙ ≤ 106, and that one binary with M1 ≥ 0.8M⊙ is formed annually in the Galaxy.

Spectroscopic Survey of Faint Planetary-nebula Nuclei. V. The EGB 6-type Central Star of Abell 57

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
During our spectroscopic survey of central stars of faint planetary nebulae (PNe), we found that the nucleus of Abell 57 exhibits strong nebular emission lines.

The Critical Role of Dust on the [O iii] Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function’s Bright-end Cutoff

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We examine the relationship between circumnebular extinction and core mass for sets of [O iii ]-bright planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Large Magellanic Cloud and M31. We confirm that for PNe within 1 magnitude of the planetary nebula luminosity function’s

The Fate of the Interstellar Medium in Early-type Galaxies. V. Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback from Optical Spectral Classification

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Quenching of star formation plays a fundamental role in galaxy evolution. This process occurs due to the removal of the cold interstellar medium (ISM) or stabilization against collapse, so that gas cannot be used in the formation of new stars.

A Method of Determination of the Temperature of Nuclei of the Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1968
I would like to make a few comments on the problem of the determination of the temperatures of nuclei of planetary nebulae.It can be shown that in a high-excitation planetary nebula two independent Strömgren zones of heavy elements can be found. The first is a He III zone; the second corresponds to a zone of the luminescence of Ne V forbidden lines and

Kepler Discovery of GW Vir Pulsations of the Central Star of Planetary Nebula Kn 61

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the discovery of pulsations in the N-rich PG 1159-type central star of the planetary nebula Kn 61 based on 1 month of Kepler Short Cadence observations. We detect four significant peaks in the frequency range consistent with g -modes excited in

A Search for Cool Companions of Planetary Nebula Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1989
At present only a small number of planetary nebulae are known to possess binary nuclei. Since approximately 2/3 of main sequence stars are members of binary or multiple star systems, one might expect a large fraction of PN central stars to have gravitationally bound companions.
