Nebulosas Bipolares

    General
    Descripción

    Nuestro proyecto persigue tres objetivos principales: 1) Determinar las condiciones físico-químicas de las nebulosas planetarias con geometría bipolar y de las nebulosas alrededor de estrellas simbióticas. El fin es entender el origen de la bipolaridad y poner a prueba los modelos teóricos que intentan explicar la morfología y la cinemática nebular, con especial énfasis en los modelos con estrellas binarias centrales. 2) Estudiar las microestructuras de baja excitación en las nebulosas planetarias, su origen (en relación con el proceso de formación de la propia nebulosa), sus propiedades físico-químicas y su interacción con el gas nebular. 3) Descubrir y estudiar nuevas nebulosas planetarias galácticas y extragalácticas. La meta es analizar sus propiedades físico-químicas e investigar los gradientes de composición química a lo largo de los discos galácticos.

    • ETHOS 1: a high-latitude planetary nebula with jets forged by a post-common-envelope binary central star
      We report on the discovery of ETHOS 1 (PN G068.1+11.0), the first spectroscopically confirmed planetary nebula (PN) from a survey of the SuperCOSMOS Science Archive for high-latitude PNe. ETHOS 1 stands out as one of the few PNe to have both polar outflows (jets) travelling at 120 ± 10 km s-1 and a close binary central star. The light curve

      We present observations proving the close binary nature of the central stars belonging to the planetary nebulae (PNe) NGC 6326 and NGC 6778. Photometric monitoring reveals irradiated lightcurves with orbital periods of 0.372 and 0.1534 days, respectively, constituting firm evidence that they passed through a common-envelope (CE) phase.

      Nova V458 Vul erupted on 2007 August 8 and reached a visual magnitude of 8.1 a few days later. Hα images obtained 6 weeks before the outburst as part of the IPHAS Galactic plane survey reveal an 18th magnitude progenitor surrounded by an extended nebula. Subsequent images and spectroscopy of the nebula reveal an inner nebular knot increasing

      We constrain the iron abundance in a sample of 33 low-ionization Galactic planetary nebulae (PNe) using [Fe III] lines and correcting for the contribution of higher ionization states with ionization correction factors that take into account uncertainties in the atomic data. We find very low iron abundances in all the objects, suggesting that more

      We obtained optical long-slit spectra of four planetary nebulae (PNe) with low-ionization pair of knots, namely He 1-1, IC 2149, KjPn 8 and NGC 7662. These data allow us to derive the physical parameters and excitation of the pairs of knots, and those of higher ionization inner components of the nebulae, separately. Our results are as follows. (1)
