Independent Emission and Absorption Abundances for Planetary Nebulae

Robert Williams, Edward B. Jenkins, Jack A. Baldwin +4

Emission-line abundances have been uncertain for more than a decade due to unexplained discrepancies in the relative intensities of the forbidden lines and weak permitted recombina…

Abundances of s-process elements in planetary nebulae: Br, Kr & Xe

Y. Zhang, R. Williams, E. Pellegrini +5

We identify emission lines of post-iron peak elements in very high signal-to-noise spectra of a sample of planetary nebulae. Analysis of lines from ions of Kr and Xe reveals enhanc…

Identification and Characterization of Faint Emission Lines in the Spectrum of the Planetary Nebula IC 418

Brian Sharpee, Jack A. Baldwin, Robert Williams

We present high signal-to-noise echelle spectra of the compact high surface brightness, low ionization planetary nebula IC 418. These reveal 807 emission lines down to intensities…

Introducing EMILI: Computer Aided Emission Line Identification

Brian Sharpee, Robert Williams, Jack A. Baldwin +1

The identification of spectral lines can be a tedious process requiring the interrogation of large spectroscopic databases, but it does lend itself to software algorithms that can…

Comparative Absorption and Emission Abundance Analyses of Nebulae: Ion Emission Densities for IC 418

Robert Williams, Edward B. Jenkins, Jack A. Baldwin +1

Recent analyses of nebular spectra have resulted in discrepant abundances from CNO forbidden and recombination lines. We consider independent methods of determining ion abundances…
