Kinematic Structure of H 2 and [Fe II] in the Bipolar Planetary Nebula M2-9
TL;DR: In this paper, high-dispersion, long-slit, infrared (IR) spectra of the double-shell bipolar planetary nebula M2-9 in the emission lines [Fe II] λ16435 and H2 v = 1−0 S(1) λ21218 were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constraints on Type IIn supernova progenitor outbursts from the Lick Observatory Supernova Search
Christopher Bilinski,Nathan Smith,Weidong Li,G. Grant Williams,Wei Kang Zheng,Alexei V. Filippenko +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors search through roughly 12 years of archival survey data acquired by the Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT) as part of the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) in order to detect or place limits on possible progenitor outbursts of Type IIn supernovae (SNe~IIn).
Journal ArticleDOI
