Extragalactic Distances from Planetary Nebulae
The [O III] λ5007 planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF) occupies an important place on the extragalactic distance ladder. Since it is the only method that is applicable to all the large galaxies of the Local Supercluster, it is uniquely useful for cross-checking results and linking the Population I and Population II distance scales. We review the physics underlying the method, demonstrate...
متن کاملX - rays from Planetary Nebulae
Two sources of X-ray emission are expected from planetary nebulae: the hot central stars with Teff > 10 5 K, and shocked fast stellar winds at temperatures of 10 − 10 K. The stellar emission and nebular emission differ in spatial distribution and spectral properties. Observations of Xray emission from PNe may provide essential information on formation mechanisms and physical conditions of PNe. ...
متن کاملPlanetary Nebulae
Planetary nebulae (PNe) can be used to trace intermediate and old stellar populations in galaxies and the intracluster medium out to approximately 20 Mpc. PNe can be easily identified with narrow-band surveys, and their chemical abundances and radial velocities can be measured with multi-slit or multi-fiber spectrographs. We briefly review what has been accomplished to date, and include tables ...
متن کاملEmission Lines from Jets in Planetary Nebulae
Emission line profiles from collimated high-velocity outflows or jets in planetary nebulae (PNe) have diverse characteristics that indicate the influence of binary cores and magnetic confinement mechanisms in their origin. In this contribution, a number of cases are presented that exemplify the complexity of these outflows in PNe.
متن کاملStellar Evolution from AGB to Planetary Nebulae
Planetary nebulae are formed by an interacting winds process where the remnant of the AGB wind is compressed and accelerated by a later-developed fast wind from the central star. One-dimensional dynamical models have successfully explained the multi-shell (bubble, shell, crown, haloes) structures and the kinematics of planetary nebulae. However, the origin of the diverse asymmetric morphology o...
