The ISO spectrum of the planetary nebula NGC 6302 II . Nebular abundances
The ISO spectrum of NGC 6302 is used, in conjunction with the visible and ultraviolet spectrum, to determine the nebular composition. In addition to being considerably more accurate than previous determinations, the abundances of many more elements (and ions) can be found. A discussion of the previous evolution of the central star, in the light of these abundances , is given. A discussion is al...

We present a three-dimensional photoionisation and dust radiative transfer model of NGC 6302, an extreme, high-excitation planetary nebula. We use the 3D photoionisation code mocassin to model the emission from the gas and dust. We have produced a good fit to the optical emission-line spectrum, from which we derived a density distribution for the nebula. A fit to the infrared coronal lines plac...
متن کاملThe mineral composition and spatial distribution of the dust ejecta of NGC 6302 ⋆ ⋆ ⋆
We have analysed the full ISO spectrum of the planetary nebula NGC 6302 in order to derive the mineralogical composition of the dust in the nebula. We use an optically thin dust model in combination with laboratory measurements of cosmic dust analogues. We find two main temperature components at about 100 and 50 K respectively, with distinctly different dust compositions. The warm component con...
متن کاملThe Internal Extinction Curve of NGC 6302 and its Extraordinary Spectrum
In this paper we present a new method for obtaining the optical wavelengthdependent reddening function of planetary nebulae, using the nebular and stellar continuum. The data used was a spectrum of NGC 6302 obtained using the Double Beam Spectrograph on the 2.3m telescope at Siding Springs Observatory over three nights. This resulted in a spectrum covering a wavelength range 3300 − 8600 Å with ...
