Theoretical, observational and laboratory work on the new form of carbon known as fullerenes and its hydrogenated forms (fulleranes) are reviewed. These...
High-velocity outflows in post-Main-Sequence nebulae
Observations of three post-Main-Sequence nebulae, taken with an intermediate dispersion spectrograph mounted on the 2.5 m Isaac Newton Telescope (La Palma...
Hot Bubbles in Nebulae around Evolved Stars: probing stellar evolution
In this talk we will present our most recent numerical and observational results on the formation, evolution, and X-ray emission from hot bubbles in nebulae...
IRAS 17423-1755: A BQ() star with a variable velocity outflow
Infrared Astronomy Satellite (IRAS) 17423-1755 has been identified as a BQ() star. Its more remarkable observed features are large radial velocities, huge line...
Sub-arcsecond JHK images of the star formation region NGC 6334 IV covering 14.7arcmin2 have been obtained. These were supplemented by H2 and Brγ images of the...
Near infrared observations of the H II region S 146
Near infrared observations between 0.7 and 5 microns of the irregular H II region S 146 are reported. A source found near the center of the nebula is identified...
The authors present the results of a near-infrared survey of 13 areas containing 16 GGD objects. A total of 12 infrared sources have been detected in five of...
New insights into a familiar friend - CO J = 2-1 mapping of the bipolar outflow source NGC 1333 (HH 7-11)
The bipolar outflow source NGC 1333 (HH 7-11) was observed in the J = 2-1 transition of (C-12)O, and evidence was found for a strong westerly termination of the...
On the chemodynamics of Wolf-Rayet ring nebulae - NGC 6888
Results of a chemodynamical study of the W-R ring nebula NGC 6888 around the WN6 star WR 136 are presented; the observations combine high spatial and spectral...
