Watching PrePNe Evolve: 15 Years of HST Observations
Multi-epoch HST images have been obtained for the pre planetary nebulae CRL618, CRL2688, and Hen3-1475. Each object shows clear and idiosyncratic expansion...
When nature tries to trick us. An eclipsing eccentric close binary superposed on the central star of the planetary nebula M 3-2
Bipolar planetary nebulae (PNe) are thought to result from binary star interactions and, indeed, tens of binary central stars of PNe have been found, in...
Context. The Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) was used to select a sample of 211 central stars of planetary nebulae (CSPNe) with good-quality astrometric measurements...
A large fraction of all stars, after experiencing heavy winds at the end of the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase, leave behind a core that is below the...
During the late stages of their evolution, Sun-like stars bring the products of nuclear burning to the surface. Most of the carbon in the Universe is believed...
[WC] Stellar Wind Turbulent Outflows Feeding the ISM
Wind fluctuations in [WC 8-9]-type central stars of planetary nebulae have been detected. Moving features seen on the top of the C III lambda 5696 and C IV...
