Children of the Stars
Henri Boffin
Even if it tends to hide more often in the current autumnal season, our host star, the Sun, is the principal source of energy on our planet. It has a luminosity of 3.828e26 Watts,…
ESO's Exposure Time Calculator 2.0
Henri M. J. Boffin, Jakob Vinther, Lars K. Lundin +1
Users of the La Silla Paranal Observatory have to rely on the ESO Exposure Time Calculator (ETC) to prepare their observations. A project has been started at ESO to modernise the E…
The post-common-envelope binary central star of the planetary nebula ETHOS 1
James Munday, David Jones, Jorge García-Rojas +7
We present a detailed study of the binary central star of the planetary nebula ETHOS 1 (PN G068.1+11.0). Simultaneous modelling of light and radial velocity curves reveals the bina…
The post-common-envelope binary central star of the planetary nebula PN G283.7-05.1: A possible post-red-giant-branch planetary nebula central star
David Jones, Henri M. J. Boffin, Jacob Hibbert +8
We present the discovery and characterisation of the post-common-envelope central star system in the planetary nebula PN G283.705.1. Deep images taken as part of the POPIPlaN su…
White Paper on MAAT@GTC
Francisco Prada, Robert Content, Ariel Goobar +41
MAAT is proposed as a visitor mirror-slicer optical system that will allow the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m Gran telescopio CANARIAS (GTC) the capability to perform Integral F…
The impact of strong recombination on temperature determination in planetary nebulae
V. Gomez-Llanos, C. Morisset, J. Garcia-Rojas +4
The long-standing difference in chemical abundances determined from optical recombination lines and collisionally excited lines raises questions about our understanding of atomic p…
