Gas physical conditions and kinematics of the giant outflow Ou4

Romano L. M. Corradi, Nicolas Grosso, Agnès Acker +2

Ou4 is a recently discovered bipolar outflow with a projected size of more than one degree in the plane of the sky. It is apparently centred on the young stellar cluster -whose mos…

Discovery of New Faint Northern Galactic Planetary Nebulae

Agnes Acker, Henri M. J. Boffin, Nicolas Outters +4

We present the discovery of 6 nebular objects made by amateur astronomers. Four of these discoveries are clearly planetary nebulae (PNe), one is a possible PN, and another is a lik…

Newly Discovered Wolf-Rayet and Weak Emission-Line Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae

Kyle DePew, Quentin A. Parker, Brent Miszalski +5

We present spectra of 32 previously unpublished confirmed and candidate Wolf-Rayet ([WR]) and weak emission-line (WELS) central stars of planetary nebulae (CSPNe). Eighteen stars h…

Searching for Faint Planetary Nebulae Using the Digital Sky Survey

George H. Jacoby, Matthias Kronberger, Dana Patchick +8

Recent Halpha surveys such as SHS and IPHAS have improved the completeness of the Galactic planetary nebula (PN) census. We now know of ~3,000 PNe in the Galaxy, but this is far sh…

Chemical compositions and plasma parameters of planetary nebulae with Wolf-Rayet and wels type central stars

P. Girard, J. Koppen, A. Acker

Aims: Chemical compositions and other properties of planetary nebulae around central stars of spectral types [WC], [WO], and wels are compared with those of `normal' central stars,…

New insights on the complex planetary nebula Hen 2-113

Eric Lagadec, Olivier Chesneau, Mikako Matsuura +5

We report infrared observations of the planetary nebula Hen 2-113 obtained with VLT/NACO, VLTI/MIDI, VLT/ISAAC and TIMMI at the ESO 3.6m. Hen 2-113 exhibits a clear ring-like struc…
