... We sometimes use the word "nebula" to refer to galaxies, various types of star clusters and various kinds of interstellar dust/gas clouds. ... Early in this century, there was a great debate as to the nature of the nebulae like this one which at that time could not be resolved into individual stars. ... A typical galaxy is 100,000 light-years in diameter. ... M 42 shown) Reflection nebulae are clouds of dust which are simply reflecting the light of a nearby star or stars. ... M 1 shown) . ...

One of my on-going research interests concerns the dust shells of proto-planetary nebulae or PPNs (also called pre-planetary nebulae, transition objects, and post-AGB objects in the literature; the latter term also applies to a wider selection of objects such as RV Tauri stars), especially the carbon-rich ones that show the unidentified "21 micron' emission feature. ... I am working to find a complete sample of proto-planetary nebulae in these satellite galaxies from the millions of detected stars. ...

V348sgr may be more closely related to about twenty hydrogen-deficient central stars of planetary nebulae which have similar carbon abundances ( ) and strong emission line spectra ([ Leuenhagen et al. 1995 ], [ Leuenhagen & Hamann 1997 ]). ... Hydrogen-deficient and carbon-rich knots are seen in the inner nebulae of at least two objects (Abell 30 and Abell 78). ...

NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

... GSAOI Home . ... Science . ... Despite vast increase in our understanding of the evolutionary nature of planetary nebulae (PNe) during the last three decades, a central question remains: where is the missing mass? Theoretical evolutionary tracks predict that all stars with masses in the range 1.4-8 M Sun should become PNe. ... Clearly, much of the mass of the planetary nebula shell must remain un-ionized, and much of it may be in molecular form. ... The Magellanic Cloud PNe are ideal for this. ...
