ALMA Observations of the Coldest Place in the Universe: The Boomerang Nebula
R. Sahai, W. H. T. Vlemmings, P. J. Huggins +2
The Boomerang Nebula is the coldest known object in the Universe, and an extreme member of the class of Pre-Planetary Nebulae, objects which represent a short-lived transitional ph…
Deep optical imaging of AGB circumstellar envelopes
N. Mauron, P. J. Huggins, C. -L. Cheung
We report results of a program to image the extended circumstellar envelopes of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in dust-scattered Galactic light. The goal is to characterize th…
Jet Power in Pre-Planetary Nebulae: Observations vs. Theory
P. J. Huggins
High velocity jets are among the most prominent features of a wide class of planetary nebulae, but their origins are not understood. Several different types of physical model have…
Prospects for Asymmetric PNe with ALMA
P. J. Huggins
Millimeter and sub-millimeter observations have made fundamental contributions to our current understanding of the transition from AGB stars to white dwarfs. The approaching era of…
The Shapes of AGB Envelopes as Probes of Binary Companions
P. J. Huggins, N. Mauron, E. A. Wirth
We describe how the large scale geometry of the circumstellar envelopes of asymptotic giant branch stars can be used to probe the presence of unseen stellar companions. A nearby co…
Jets and Tori in Proto-Planetary Nebulae: Observations vs. Theory
P. J. Huggins
We report on a study of the time sequence for the appearance of high-velocity jets and equatorial tori in the transition of stars from the asymptotic giant branch to the planetary…
