Molecules in the Carbon-rich Protoplanetary Nebula CRL 2688 [PDF]
Abstract We present observations of the carbon-rich protoplanetary nebula CRL 2688 made with the Institut de Radioastronomie Millimétrique 30 m telescope in the 3 and 2 mm bands. In total, 196 transition lines belonging to 38 molecular species and isotopologues are detected, among which, to the best of our knowledge, 153 transition lines

Polarimetry of the protoplanetary nebula AFGL 2688 [PDF]
Our spectroscopic (with resolution R=75 000) and spectropolarimetric (R=15 000) observations with the 6-m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory have enabled us to distinguish photospheric and circumstellar features in the optical spectrum of the bipolar protoplanetary nebula AFGL 2688 for the first time.

Trigonometric Parallax of the Protoplanetary Nebula OH 231.8+4.2 [PDF]
AbstractWe report trigonometric parallx measurements for H2O masers around the protoplanetary nebula OH 231.8+4.2 carried out with the Very Long Baseline Array. Based on astrometric monitoring for 1 year, we measured a trigonometric parallax of 0.89 ± 0.04 mas, corresponding to a distance of 1.12+0.05−0.05 kpc.

Igneous processes in the small bodies of the Solar System I. Asteroids and comets [PDF]
Summary: Igneous processes were quite widespread in the small bodies of the Solar System (SBSS) and were initially fueled by short-lived radioisotopes, the proto-Sun, impact heating, and differentiation heating.

Igneous meteorites suggest Aluminium-26 heterogeneity in the early Solar Nebula [PDF]
The short-lived radionuclide aluminium-26 (26Al) isotope is a major heat source for early planetary melting. The aluminium-26 – magnesium-26 (26Al-26Mg) decay system also serves as a high-resolution relative chronometer.

The Integral Field View of the Orion Nebula [PDF]
This paper reviews the major advances achieved in the Orion Nebula through the use of integral field spectroscopy (IFS). Since the early work of Vasconcelos and collaborators in 2005, this technique has facilitated the investigation of global properties ...

How unique is the protoplanetary nebula star HR 4049? [PDF]
The late B-supergiant HR 4049 is peculiar in different respects: (1) It is located far from the galactic plane (b = 23°); (2) It is a variable with a large amplitude and on a long time scale (Waelkens and Rufener, 1983); (3) It has a spectacular infrared excess (Lamers et al., 1986).

Destruction of protoplanetary discs in the Orion Nebula Cluster [PDF]
We use numerical N-body simulations of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) to investigate the destruction of protoplanetary disks by close stellar encounters and UV radiation from massive stars. The simulations model a cluster of 4000 stars, and we consider separately cases in which the disks have fixed radii of 100 AU and 10 AU.

Igneous processes in the small bodies of the Solar System II: Small satellites and dwarf planets [PDF]
Summary: Evidence of hot and cold igneous processes has been reported in small satellites and dwarf planets of the Solar System. Olivine and pyroxenes were detected in the spectral bands of both small satellites and dwarf planets.

Abundant microchondrules in 162173 Ryugu suggest a turbulent origin for primitive asteroids [PDF]
Chondrules are a characteristic feature of primitive Solar System materials and are common in all primitive meteorites except the CI-chondrites. They are thought to form owing to melting of solid dust aggregates by energetic processing within the solar ...
