Comparing Eta Carinae with the Red Rectangle
I compare the structures of the bipolar nebulae around the massive binary system η Carinae and around the low mass binary system HD 44179. While η Carinae is on its way to become a supernova, the Red Rectangle is on its way to form a planetary nebula. Despite the two orders of magnitude difference in mass, these two systems show several similarities, both in the properties of the stellar binary...
متن کاملThe ERE of the “ Red Rectangle ” revisited
We present in this paper high signal-to-noise long-slit optical spectra of the Extended Red Emission (ERE) in the “Red Rectangle” (RR) nebula. These spectra, obtained at different positions in the nebula, reveal an extremely complex emission pattern on top of the broad ERE continuum. It is well known that three features converge at large distance from the central object, in wavelength and profi...
متن کاملWhy is language unique to humans?
Cognitive neuroscience has focused on language acquisition as one of the main domains to test the respective roles of statistical vs. rule-like computation. Recent studies have uncovered that the brain of human neconates displays a typical signature in response to speech sounds even a few hours after birth. This suggests that neuroscience and linguistics converge on the view that, to a large ex...
متن کاملWhy Rudolph’s nose is red: observational study
OBJECTIVE To characterise the functional morphology of the nasal microcirculation in humans in comparison with reindeer as a means of testing the hypothesis that the luminous red nose of Rudolph, one of the most well known reindeer pulling Santa Claus's sleigh, is due to the presence of a highly dense and rich nasal microcirculation. DESIGN Observational study. SETTING Tromsø, Norway (near ...
متن کاملThe Shaping of the Red Rectangle Proto-planetary Nebula
I argue that the slowly expanding biconical structure of the Red Rectangle−a nebula around the post asymptotic giant branch binary stellar system HD 44179−can be formed by intermittent jets blown by the accreting companion. The bright biconical structure of the Red Rectangle nebula can be understood to be composed of a multiple double-ring system. In the proposed shaping process, one among seve...
