New Planetary Nebulae in the Northern Galactic Plane
Panayotis Boumis, Myfanwy Bryce
We present deep Halpha+[N II] CCD images of selected new Planetary Nebulae (PNe) discovered through an [O III] 5007 A emission line survey in the Galactic Bulge region with l > 0 d…
Optical Survey of Planetary Nebulae in the northern Galactic Bulge
Panayotis Boumis, John Papamastorakis
We present preliminary results of an optical survey for Planetary Nebulae (PNe) in the northern part of the Galactic Bulge. In particular, observations at wavelengths corresponding…
A CCD mosaic of an extended remnant in Cygnus
F. Mavromatakis, P. Boumis, E. V. Paleologou
We present the first CCD mosaic ever produced for the supernova remnant G 65.3+5.7 in [OII] 3727 at a moderate angular resolution. The remnant was observed with the 0.3 m wide-fiel…
Optical observations of the supernova remnant AX J2001+3235
F. Mavromatakis, P. Boumis, E. V. Paleologou
We present results from a first analysis of optical data on G 69.4+2.4 obtained with the 0.3 m and 1.3 m telescopes at Skinakas Observatory. Filamentary emission is detected in the…
Detections of extended galactic haloes of Virgo Cluster Galaxies
A. C. Katsiyannis, P. Boumis, J. Meaburn
The UK Schmidt camera was used to observe the Virgo cluster of galaxies, where a total of 13 R-band Kodak Tech-Pan films were obtained. The latter, were scanned by the APM machine…
Seeing Measurements at Skinakas Observatory using the DIMM method
P. Boumis, A. Steiakaki, F. Mavromatakis +2
We present preliminary results from a study of the seeing at Skinakas Observatory in Crete, Greece. The measurements have been made during the years 2000 and 2001 using a two-apert…
