Macrostructures and microstructures in planetary nebulae
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 December 2006
Abstract
PNe display a variety of large and small-scale structures which have been the object of a large number of observational and theoretical studies in the last two decades. This review contains a brief description of the different observational approaches used to determine the structure of PNe, and some critical discussion about the morphological components whose formation we believe we understand, and those which instead are still poorly understood.
