There is no single density: star-forming regions and galaxies hold more dense ionized gas than long assumed
J. Eduardo Méndez-Delgado, Christophe Morisset, William J. Henney +29
Ionized gas fills star-forming regions and galaxies, and nearly everything we know about its temperature, pressure, mass, and composition is inferred from its emission lines [1-3].…
SDSS-V LVM: Revealing the Physical and Chemical Structure of the Helix Nebula
R. Orozco-Duarte, J. E. Méndez-Delgado, J. A. Toalá +27
We present the first spatially contiguous study of the physical and chemical structure of the Helix Nebula (NGC~7293, PNG 036.1-57.1) based on integral-field spectroscopy from the…
Photoionization modelling of circumstellar nebulae using irregular grains
P. Jiménez-Hernández, S. J. Arthur, D. Guirado +4
We study the effects of using the optical properties of irregular hexahedral grains in photoionization models of circumstellar nebulae around evolved stars. Dust opacities for the…
A VLA search for compact radio sources in the explosive molecular outflows DR 21 and G5.89
Vanessa Yanza, Sergio A. Dzib, Aina Palau +3
We present high-angular-resolution () VLA Ku-band (12--18 GHz) observations of two explosive molecular outflows (EMOs), DR 21 and G5.89, in a search for runaway s…
Kinematics and physical structure of Ou 5: A bipolar planetary nebula with extreme abundance discrepancy and an eclipsing binary core
William J. Henney, J. A. López, Ma. T. GarcÃa-DÃaz +5
We present new deep imaging and high-resolution spectroscopy of the extreme-abundance-discrepancy planetary nebula Ou 5, together with photoionization modelling aimed at probing it…
SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper (LVM): Revealing the Structure of the Rosette Nebula
Mónica A. Villa-Durango, Jorge Barrera-Ballesteros, Carlos G. Román-Zúñiga +19
The Rosette Nebula is a well-known H II region shaped by the interaction of gas with the OB stars of the NGC 2244 stellar association. Located within the remnant of a giant molecul…
