Infrared Emission-Lines and the Stellar Temperature
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 August 2017
Extract
Observations of near infrared emission-lines are becoming available and can be a powerful tool to improve our knowledge on planetary nebulae properties. For wavelengths in the range 1 to 5 μm, the emission-lines correspond to atomic transitions of high ionized species of heavy elements. In particular, the [Si VI] 1.96μm and [Si VII] 2.48μm lines have already been detected (Ashley and Hyland, 1988).
