Planetary Nebulae
Planetary nebulae (PNe) can be used to trace intermediate and old stellar populations in galaxies and the intracluster medium out to approximately 20 Mpc. PNe can be easily identified with narrow-band surveys, and their chemical abundances and radial velocities can be measured with multi-slit or multi-fiber spectrographs. We briefly review what has been accomplished to date, and include tables ...
متن کاملIntracluster Planetary Nebulae
We review the progress of research on intracluster planetary nebulae (IPN). In the past five years, hundreds of IPN candidates have been detected in the Virgo and Fornax galaxy clusters and searches are also underway in poorer galaxy groups. From the observations to date, and applying the known properties of extragalactic planetary nebulae, the intracluster light in Virgo and Fornax: 1) is sign...
متن کاملHydrogen-poor planetary nebulae
Five planetary nebulae are known to show hydrogen-poor material near the central star. In the case of A58, this gas was ejected following a late thermal pulse similar to Sakurai. In this paper I will review these five objects. One of them, IRAS 18333−2357, may not be a true PN. I will show that there is a strong case for a relation to the [WC] stars and their relatives, the weak emission-line s...
متن کاملProperties of Proto–Planetary Nebulae
This review describes some general properites of proto-planetary nebulae with particular emphasis on the recent work of morpholgical studies. The weight of observational evidence shows that proto-planetary nebulae (PPNe) are most certainly axisymmetric like planetary nebulae. Recent work suggests two subclasses of PPNe optical morphology, DUst-Prominent Longitudinally-EXtended (DUPLEX) and Star...
متن کاملRadio Images of Planetary Nebulae
The continuum radio spectra of planetary nebulae are discussed, and the structure of these objects is examined from the observed aperture synthesis brightness distributions determined with the Very Large Array. The use of radio observations in determining distances to planetary nebulae is examined. The detection of atomic neutral hydrogen at λ21 cm associated with planetary nebulae, as well as ...
