The presence of O VI ions can be indicative of plasma temperatures of a few times 10^5 K that is expected in heat conduction layers between the hot shocked stellar wind gas at several 10^6 K and the cooler (~10,000 K) nebular gas of…

We have obtained Chandra ACIS-S observations of NGC 6543, the Cat's Eye Nebula. The X-ray emission from NGC 6543 is clearly resolved into a point source at the central star and diffuse emission confined within the central elliptical shell…

An early analysis of Chandra observations of the planetary nebula NGC 6543 suggested that the location and the derived temperature for the X-ray emitting region is inconsistent with the abundances measured for this object (Chu et al. 2001).…

Diffuse X-ray emission has been detected in a small number of planetary nebulae (PNe), indicating the existence of shocked fast stellar winds and providing support for the interacting-stellar-winds formation scenario of PNe. However, the…

Theory predicts that the temperature of the X-ray-emitting gas ($\sim$10$^{6}$ K) detected from planetary nebulae (PNe) is a consequence of mixing or thermal conduction when in contact with the ionized outer rim ($\sim$10$^{4}$ K). Gas at…

We investigate the electron temperature of the inner halo and nebular core regions of NGC 6543, using archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) images taken through narrow band [O III] filters. Balick et…

XMM-Newton EPIC observations of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7009, the Saturn Nebula, have detected extended X-ray emission in its central cavity. The diffuse X-ray emission must originate in the shocked fast stellar wind. The spectra show…

Chu et al (2001; ApJ, 533, L69) report that they find the diffuse X-ray emission from the Cat's Eye Nebula, NGC 6543, to be inconsistent with nebular abundances but consistent with abundances expected for the stellar wind although the…

A significant fraction of baryons in galaxies are in the form of diffuse gas of the circumgalactic medium (CGM). One critical component of the multi-phases of CGM, the so-called "coronal" warm-hot phase gas ($\rm 10^{5}-10^{6}$ K) traced by…

We revise the physical conditions in the O++ zone of the planetary nebula NGC 6543, obtaining two different estimates of the electron temperature (Te) and one estimate of the electron density (Ne). The electron temperature is computed by…

We determine the physical conditions in NGC 6543, obtaining two different estimates of the electron temperature (T_e) and one estimate of the electron density (N_e). The electron temperature is computed by means of the [O III] ratio lambda…

We report the first Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) measurements of diffuse O VI (lambda,lambda 1032,1038) emission from the general diffuse interstellar medium outside of supernova remnants or superbubbles. We observed a…

We present an analysis of XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) observations of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 6543, rendering it the second PN with high resolution X-ray spectroscopic observations besides BD+30 3639. The…

We present a survey of diffuse O VI emission in the interstellar medium obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE). Spanning 5.5 years of FUSE observations, from launch through 2004 December, our data set consists of…

Infrared spectra of NGC 7027 and NGC 6543 ranging from 2.4 to 45 micron were obtained with the Short Wavelength Spectrometer on board the Infrared Space Observatory. A first analysis of these spectra, with the aid of photo-ionization…

We analyze the chemical composition of the central star of the planetary nebula NGC 6543 based upon a detailed NLTE model of its stellar wind. The logarithmic abundances by number are H=12.00, He=11.00, C=9.03, N=8.36, O=9.02, Si=8.19,…

We report a detection (3.5x10^37 \pm 5.6x10^36 ergps) of the optical coronal emission line [Fe X]6374 and upper limits of four other coronal lines using high resolution VIMOS spectra centred on NGC 4696, the brightest cluster galaxy in the…

We present observations of O VI 1032 emission around the helium white dwarf KPD 0005+5106 obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer. Previously published data, reprocessed with an updated version of the calibration pipeline,…

We have searched for the emission from \fex and \fexiv that is expected from the gas emitting in diffuse X-rays in \bd, NGC 6543, NGC 7009, and NGC 7027. Neither line was detected in any object. Models that fit the X-ray spectra of these…

We report initial results from an ongoing spectroscopic survey of central stars of faint planetary nebulae (PNe), obtained with the Low-Resolution Spectrograph on the Hobby-Eberly Telescope. The six PN nuclei (PNNi) discussed here all have…
