Spectroscopic observations of selected planetary nebulae from the HASH data base.

Abstract (from CDS):

We conducted research on the classification and physical properties of 10 objects from the HASH [Hong Kong/Australian Astronomical Observatory/Strasbourg Observatory H-alpha Planetary Nebula (PN)] data base with small angular sizes (<8 arcsec) in the Northern hemisphere. The sample consisted of six Likely PNe, two new candidates, one emission-line star, and one object of unknown nature. Among them, we observed four objects for the first time using the medium-resolution TUG Faint Object Spectrograph and Camera spectrograph located on the RTT150 cm of the TÜBİTAK National Observatory. To investigate the classification of the observed objects, we utilized the emission line ratios of [O III]/Hγ, [O III]/Hβ, [N II]/Hα, and [S II]/Hα, and diagnostic diagrams such as the Sabbadin-Minello-Bianchini and Baldwin-Phillips-Terlevich diagrams. When considering a broader range of diagnostic criteria compared to those provided in the literature, our analyses resulted in the reclassification of four objects from Likely PNe to True PNe and the retention of the previous classification for the remaining six objects. In addition, we obtained various physical conditions such as electron temperatures, electron densities, logarithmic extinction coefficients, and excitation classes for the 10 objects under study. Our analysis revealed that the ionic abundances of the majority of these objects were in agreement with Galactic PNe. Our spectral observations have led to the updating of 10 PNe in the HASH data base.
