Some southern stars involved in nebulosity
Abstract
An outer shell of nebulosity surrounding Eta Carinae is described. AG Carinae,HD 138403 and CoD 460 11816 are found to be surrounded by nebulous disks or shells with [0 III] weak or absent. These three stars all have Harvard classification of P Cygni type and resemble planetaries of low excitation. The spectrum of HD 138403 has some affinity to that of the nebulosity round T Tauri. Diffuse nebulosities near HD 92207 and CPD - 590 2661 in the neighbourhood of Eta Carinae are also described. A complex field of bright and dark nebulosity at 11h 36rn 63007 indicates close interaction between stars and nebulosity. The small dark areas are highly irregular in outline and also appear to lie close to stars.
