Detection of new planetary nebulae by IPHAS, the Hα survey of the North Galactic plane
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2005-11-28)
IPHAS is an ongoing Hα imaging survey of the North Galactic plane. When completed, it is expected to discover several hundred new Galactic planetary nebulae, in addition to a huge number of Hα emitters. We present here the ...
Discovering interacting binaries with Hα surveys
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2005)
A deep (R ~ 19.5) photographic Hα Survey of the southern Galactic Plane was recently completed using the UK Schmidt Telescope at the AAO. In addition, we have recently started a similar, CCD-based survey of the northern ...
The AAO/UKST SuperCOSMOS Ha survey
(2005)
The UK Schmidt Telescope (UKST) of the Anglo-Australian Observatory completed a narrow-band H plus [NII] 6548, 6584°A survey of the Southern Galactic Plane and Magellanic Clouds in late 2003. The survey, which was the last ...
Near-infrared line spectropolarimetry of hot massive stars
(2005)
In order to study the inner parts of the circumstellar material around optically faint, infrared bright objects, we present the first medium-resolution spectropolarimetric data taken in the near-infrared. In this paper we ...
