The chemical composition of 218 galactic planatary nebulae is investigated, all the nebulae are divided into four classes according to the masses of the nebulae and progenitor stars. The values of local abundances, galactic abundances and electron temperature gradients are found for each class of nebulae. The correlations between element abundances are also investigated. The results are compared with theorical predictions.

A method of determination of the electron temperature in the He++ regions in planetary nebulae from observed intensities of [NeV] λ3426 and [NeIV] λ4714–25 relative to HeII λ4686 is presented. It has been used for 22 planetary nebulae for which the observational data have been taken from Kaler's Catalogue (Ap. J. Suppl., 31, 517). The electron temperatures in the He++ regions range from 15,000°K to 30,000°K for most of the studied planetaries and are usually significantly higher than the temperatures determined from [01II] lines which refer to the He++ regions. A correlation between the electron temperatures and effective temperatures of central stars has been found; the planetaries with hotter nuclei have slightly higher electron temperatures in the He++ regions. Finally, intensities of ultraviolet lines of [NeV] λ2975 and [NeIV] λ2424 have been predicted for the studied nebulae.

Valuable Complement

The far infrared nebular spectrum provides a valuable complement to the observed lines in other spectral regions. There are several reasons for this, the most important being the large increase in the number of ions observed, and the fact that the abundances found from these lines are relatively insensitive to the electron temperature. This leads to a more accurate determination of the abundances. To date, twelve PN have had abundances determined in this way. These results are summarized. The evolution of the central star is discussed in the light of these results.

Observations in Central Asia in 1965-1966 by both photographic and radar methods allowed a determination of the radiants and orbits of Leonids (Babadzhanov and Getman 1970). Photographs showed that meteoroids undergo quasi-continuous fragmentation (QCF) in the Earth’s atmosphere. Taking account of QCF, the density of the Leonid meteoroids were found to lie between 1 and Agcm-3 the average being 2gcm-3 (Babadzhanov 1994), in agreement with the density range of between 0.2 and 6gcm-3 given by Maas et al (1990) for dust grains from comet P/1 Halley, with values below 0.6 being rare. Further, the icy grains have a density of about 1gcm-3 while silicate grains have a mean density 2.5 times higher.

Thermodynamical properties of nuclear matter are studied in the framework of an effective many-body field theory at finite temperature, considering the Sommerfeld approximation. We perform the calculations by using the nonlinear Boguta and Bodmer model, extended by the inclusion of the fundamental baryon octet and leptonic degrees of freedom. Trapped neutrinos are also included in order to describe protoneutron star properties through the integration of the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff equations, from which we obtain, beyond the standard relations for the masses and radii of protoneutron stars as functions of the central density, new results of these quantities as functions of temperature. Our predictions include: the determination of an absolute value for the limiting mass of protoneutron stars; new structural aspects on the nuclear matter phase transition via the behavior of the specific heat and, through the inclusion of quark degrees of freedom, the properties of a hadron-quark phase transition and hybrid protoneutron stars

Context. Multiplanet systems are excellent laboratories to test planet formation models as all planets are formed under the same initial conditions. In this context, systems transiting bright stars can play a key role, since planetary masses, radii, and bulk densities can be measured. Aims. GJ 9827 (K2-135) has recently been found to host a tightly packed system consisting of three transiting small planets whose orbital periods of 1.2, 3.6, and 6.2 days are near the 1:3:5 ratio. GJ 9827 hosts the nearest planetary system (~30 pc) detected by NASA’s Kepler or K2 space mission. Its brightness (V = 10.35 mag) makes the star an ideal target for detailed studies of the properties of its planets. Methods. Combining the K2 photometry with high-precision radial-velocity measurements gathered with the FIES, HARPS, and HARPS-N spectrographs we revised the system parameters and derive the masses of the three planets. Results. We find that GJ 9827 b has a mass of Mb = 3.69−0.46+0.48 M⊕ and a radius of Rb = 1.58−0.13+0.14 R⊕, yielding a mean density of ρb = 5.11−1.27+1.74 g cm−3. GJ 9827 c has a mass of Mc = 1.45−0.57+0.58 M⊕, radius of Rc = 1.24−0.11+0.11 R⊕, and a mean density of ρc = 4.13−1.77+2.31 g cm−3. For GJ 9827 d, we derive Md = 1.45−0.57+0.58 M⊕, Rd = 1.24−0.11+0.11 R⊕, and ρd = 1.51−0.53+0.71 g cm−3. Conclusions. GJ 9827 is one of the few known transiting planetary systems for which the masses of all planets have been determined with a precision better than 30%. This system is particularly interesting because all three planets are close to the limit between super-Earths and sub-Neptunes. The planetary bulk compositions are compatible with a scenario where all three planets formed with similar core and atmosphere compositions, and we speculate that while GJ 9827 b and GJ 9827 c lost their atmospheric envelopes, GJ 9827 d maintained its primordial atmosphere, owing to the much lower stellarirradiation. This makes GJ 9827 one of the very few systems where the dynamical evolution and the atmosphericescape can be studied in detail for all planets, helping us to understand how compact systems form and evolve.

AbstractThe discrepancy between abundances computed using optical recombination lines (ORLs) and collisionally excited lines (CELs) is a major, unresolved problem with significant implications for the determination of chemical abundances throughout the Universe. In planetary nebulae (PNe), the most common explanation for the discrepancy is that two different gas phases coexist: a hot component with standard metallicity, and a much colder plasma enhanced in heavy elements. This dual nature is not predicted by mass loss theories, and direct observational support for it is still weak. In this work, we present our recent findings that demonstrate that the largest abundance discrepancies are associated with close binary central stars. OSIRIS-GTC tunable filter imaging of the faint O ii ORLs and MUSE-VLT deep 2D spectrophotometry confirm that O ii ORL emission is more centrally concentrated than that of [Oiii] CELs and, therefore, that the abundance discrepancy may be closely linked to binary evolution.

In this paper a discussion of kinematics and physics of the Broad Line Region (BLR) is given. The possible physical conditions in the BLR and problems in determination of the physical parameters (electron temperature and density) are considered. Moreover, one analyses the geometry of the BLR and the probability that (at least) a fraction of the radiation in the Broad Emission Lines (BELs) originates from a relativistic accretion disk.
