González Pérez1,2, J.-E. Solheim2,3, and R. Kamben2 1 Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, 38200 La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain e-mail: [email protected] 2 Institut of Physics, University of Tromsø, 9037 Tromsø, Norway 3 Institut of Theoretical Astrophysics, University of Oslo, PO box 1029 Blindern, 0315 Oslo, Norway Received 18 May 2005 / Accepted 9 March 2006 ABSTRACT Aims. We searched for photometric variability in a sample of hot, hydrogen-deficient planetary nebula nuclei (PNNi) with “PG 1159” or “O VI” spectral type, most of them embedded in a bipolar or elliptical planetary nebula envelope (PNe). These characteristics may indicate the presence of a hidden close companion and an evolution affected by episodes of interaction between them. Methods. We obtained time-series photometry from a sample of 11 candidates using the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) with the Andalucía Faint Object Spectrograph and Camera (ALFOSC), modified with our own control software to be able to observe in a high- speed multi-windowing mode. The data were reduced on-line with the real time photometry (RTP) code, which allowed us to detect periodic variable stars with small amplitudes from CCD data in real time. We studied the properties of the observed modulation fre- quencies to investigate their nature. Results. We report the first detection of low-amplitude pulsations in the PNNi VV 47, NGC 6852, and Jn 1. In addition, we investi- gated the photometric variability of NGC 246.

  • A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In
    Abasic requirement for studying the heavens is determining where in the sky things are. To specify sky positions, astronomers have developed several coordinate systems. Each uses a coordinate grid projected on to the celestial sphere, in analogy to the geographic coordinate system used on the surface of the Earth. The coordinate systems differ only in their choice of the fundamental plane, which divides the sky into two equal hemispheres along a great circle (the fundamental plane of the geographic system is the Earth's equator) . Each coordinate system is named for its choice of fundamental plane. The equatorial coordinate system is probably the most widely used celestial coordinate system. It is also the one most closely related to the geographic coordinate system, because they use the same fun­ damental plane and the same poles. The projection of the Earth's equator onto the celestial sphere is called the celestial equator. Similarly, projecting the geographic poles on to the celest ial sphere defines the north and south celestial poles. However, there is an important difference between the equatorial and geographic coordinate systems: the geographic system is fixed to the Earth; it rotates as the Earth does . The equatorial system is fixed to the stars, so it appears to rotate across the sky with the stars, but of course it's really the Earth rotating under the fixed sky. The latitudinal (latitude-like) angle of the equatorial system is called declination (Dec for short) . It measures the angle of an object above or below the celestial equator. The longitud inal angle is called the right ascension (RA for short).

  • THE CONSTELLATION MUSCA, the FLY Musca Australis (Latin: Southern Fly) Is a Small Constellation in the Deep Southern Sky
    THE CONSTELLATION MUSCA, THE FLY Musca Australis (Latin: Southern Fly) is a small constellation in the deep southern sky. It was one of twelve constellations created by Petrus Plancius from the observations of Pieter Dirkszoon Keyser and Frederick de Houtman and it first appeared on a 35-cm diameter celestial globe published in 1597 in Amsterdam by Plancius and Jodocus Hondius. The first depiction of this constellation in a celestial atlas was in Johann Bayer's Uranometria of 1603. It was also known as Apis (Latin: bee) for two hundred years. Musca remains below the horizon for most Northern Hemisphere observers. Also known as the Southern or Indian Fly, the French Mouche Australe ou Indienne, the German Südliche Fliege, and the Italian Mosca Australe, it lies partly in the Milky Way, south of Crux and east of the Chamaeleon. De Houtman included it in his southern star catalogue in 1598 under the Dutch name De Vlieghe, ‘The Fly’ This title generally is supposed to have been substituted by La Caille, about 1752, for Bayer's Apis, the Bee; but Halley, in 1679, had called it Musca Apis; and even previous to him, Riccioli catalogued it as Apis seu Musca. Even in our day the idea of a Bee prevails, for Stieler's Planisphere of 1872 has Biene, and an alternative title in France is Abeille. When the Northern Fly was merged with Aries by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) in 1929, Musca Australis was given its modern shortened name Musca. It is the only official constellation depicting an insect. Julius Schiller, who redrew and named all the 88 constellations united Musca with the Bird of Paradise and the Chamaeleon as mother Eve.

  • Outflows in the Seyfert 2 Galaxy NGC 5643 Traced By
    Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia (2018), 35, e040, 8 pages doi:10.1017/pasa.2018.31 Research Paper Outflows in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5643 traced by the [S III] emission Rogemar A. Riffel1,C.Hekatelyne1 and Izabel C. Freitas1,2 1Departamento de Física, CCNE, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, 97105-900 RS, Brazil and 2Colégio Politécnico, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, 97105-900 RS, Brazil Abstract We use Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph Integral Field Unit observations of the inner 285 × 400 pc2 region of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5643 to map the [S III]λ9069 emission line flux distribution and kinematics, as well as the stellar kinematics, derived by fitting the Ca IIλλλ8498,8542,8662 triplet, at a spatial resolution of 45 pc. The stellar velocity field shows regular rotation, with a projected velocity of − ◦ − 100 km s 1 and kinematic major axis along a position angle of –36 . A ring of low stellar velocity dispersion values (∼70 km s 1), attributed to young/intermediate age stellar populations, is seen surrounding the nucleus with a radius of 50 pc. We found that the [S III] flux distribu- tion shows an elongated structure along the east–west direction and its kinematics is dominated by outflows within a bi-cone at an ionised − gas outflow rate of 0.3 M yr 1. In addition, velocity slices across the [S III]λ9069 emission line reveal a kinematic component attributed to rotation of gas in the plane of the galaxy.

The ISO and IUE spectra of the elliptical nebulae NGC 5882, IC 418 and IC 2165 are presented. These spectra are combined with the spectra in the visual wavelength region to obtain a complete, extinction corrected, spectrum. The chemical composition of the nebulae is then calculated and compared to previous determinations. A discussion is given of: (1) the recombination line abundances; (2) the exciting stars of the nebulae; and (3) possible evolutionary effects. Key words.

  • The Desert Sky Observer
    Desert Sky Observer Volume 35 Antelope Valley Astronomy Club Newsletter February 2015 Up-Coming Events February 7: Prime Desert Moon Walk February 13: Club Meeting* February 21: Dark Sky Star Party @ TBA * Monthly meetings are held at the S.A.G.E. Planetarium on the Cactus School campus in Palmdale, the second Friday of each month. The meeting location is at the northeast corner of Avenue R and 20th Street East. Meetings start at 7 p.m. and are open to the public. Please note that food and drink are not allowed in the planetarium President Frank Moore Headline January 26, 2015. Giant asteroid makes close pass of earth. Visible to amateur astronomers with modest sized telescopes. Clouds move in to cover the view in Southern California….of course. President of Antelope Valley Astronomy Club fields questions from people asking if the asteroid is causing the “historic blizzard” on the East Coast. President says, in a word, “NO!!” though many callers are still skeptical. There you have it fellow AVAC members, today’s current events in a nutshell. In other recent news of astronomical interest, on January 23 we had three moons of Jupiter transit across the face of the giant planet. Weather permitting, this should have been visible to amateur astronomers with mid-sized telescopes. I set up our C-11 in the afternoon and got ready for what, we expected, would be a great night of observing not just Jupiter, but also other celestial wonders. Once it got dark enough I did a polar alignment, a three star alignment, and threw in a few calibration stars to boot.
