The Spatial Distribution of Line Ratio O III/O II in High Excitation Planetary Nebulae
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 July 2016
Abstract
Previous attempts to model the integrated line ratio [O III] 5007 A/[O II] 3727 A for high excitation planetary nebulae (Che and Köppen 1983) have suggested that the charge exchange coefficient (k) for the reaction could be 10 times smaller than the predicted theoretical value. The influence of other factors that may contribute to differences in the O III/O II ratio, such as the ionizing spectrum and the nebular gas density distribution, seem to be relatively small in the high excitation nebulae.
