Abstract. Sixteen planetary nebulae and a shocked peculiar nebula were discovered in the direction of the Galactic Center by means of direct inspection of the Palomar Observatory and ESO/SERC sky surveys. For all objects we obtained narrow band Hα imaging and medium resolution spectroscopy, allowing us to derive the basic parameters of the emission nebulae. For half of the nebulae of the sample, the central star candidate was identified and an estimate of the star temperature and luminosity is given.
“…The requirement of detectable radio emission greatly increases the reliability of the remaining PN candidates but does not completely eliminate contamination by Galactic H II regions and by Seyfert galaxies. Ultimately, optical or near-infrared spectroscopy is needed to conÐrm candidate PNe, and radio images are often needed to provide positions good enough for making reliable optical identiÐcations with faint objects (see Kistiakowsky & Helfand 1995).…”
In order to construct a sample of planetary nebulae (PNe) unbiased by dust extinction, we Ðrst selected the 1358 sources in the IRAS Point Source Catalog north of J2000 declination d \ [40¡ having measured S(25 km) º 1 Jy and colors characteristic of PNe : detections or upper limits consistent with both S(12 km) ¹ 0.35S(25 km) and S(25 km) º 0.35S(60 km). The majority are radio-quiet contaminating sources such as asymptotic giant branch stars. Free-free emission from genuine PNe should make them radio sources. The 1.4 GHz NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) images and source catalog were used to reject radio-quiet mid-infrared sources. We identiÐed 454 IRAS sources with radio sources brighter than S B 2.5 mJy beam~1 (equivalent to T B 0.8 K in the 45A FHWM NVSS beam) by positional coincidence. They comprise 332 known PNe in the Strasbourg-ESO Catalogue of Galactic Planetary Nebulae and 122 candidate PNe, most of which lie at very low Galactic latitudes. Exploratory optical spectroscopic observations suggest that most of these candidates are indeed PNe optically dimmed by dust extinction, although some contamination remains from H II regions, Seyfert galaxies, etc. Furthermore, the NVSS failed to detect only 4% of the known PNe in our infrared sample. Thus it appears that radio selection can greatly improve the reliability of PN candidate samples without sacriÐcing completeness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
