Search for HH objects and emission stars in star formation regions. IV. New Herbig-Haro flows and objects associated with cometary nebulae
Abstract
As part of a project to search for new Herbig-Haro (HH) objects in star formation regions, observations are reported on the neighborhoods of five cometary nebulae: MacC H12, MacC sH15, GM 1-14, RNO 33, and Pars 17. We have been able to identify 9 previously unknown HH objects in those regions. Almost all of these objects belong to directed flows whose sources are, with high probability, the central stars of these nebulae. In the cases of MacC H12 and GM 1-14, the outflows have a distinct bipolar structure. The sources of the outflows are located on a J-H/H-K diagram in order to classify them.
