Photoionization models of roundish galactic planetary nebulae in the thick disk ⋆
We present the result of photo-ionizing modelling of the three planetary nebulae (PNe) A 20, A 15 and MeWe 1-3. All three objects are roughly roundish, highly excited and have a high galactic z. The PNe displayed low densities in the shell, but relatively dense halos. A low metallicity and a relative high electron temperature were found. Comparisons with radio observations confirmed the obtaine...
متن کاملHierarchies of Models: Toward Understanding Planetary Nebulae
Stars like our sun (initial masses between 0.8 to 8 solar masses) end their lives as swollen red giants surrounded by cool extended atmospheres. The nuclear reactions in their cores create carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, which are transported by convection to the outer envelope of the stellar atmosphere. As the star finally collapses to become a white dwarf, this envelope is expelled from the star...
متن کاملPlanetary 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 کاملThe Abundances of Light Neutron-Capture Elements in Planetary Nebulae – I. Photoionization Modeling and Ionization Corrections
We have conducted a large-scale survey of 120 planetary nebulae (PNe) to search for the near-infrared emission lines [Kr III] 2.199 and [Se IV] 2.287 μm. The neutron(n)-capture elements Se and Kr may be enriched in a PN if its progenitor star experienced s-process nucleosynthesis and third dredge-up. In order to determine Se and Kr abundances, we have added these elements to the atomic database...
متن کاملNEBU_3D: A fast pseudo-3D photoionization code for aspherical planetary nebulae and HII regions
We describe a pseudo-3D photoionization code, NEBU_3D and its associated visualization tool, VIS_NEB3D, which are able to easily and rapidly treat a wide variety of nebular geometries, by combining models obtained with a 1D photoionization code. We also present a tool, VELNEB_3D, which can be applied to the results of 1D or 3D photoionization codes to generate emission line profiles, position-v...
