Recent Optical Observations of Circumstellar and Interstellar Phenomena
Abstract
Complex motions are found over the shells which comprise the Honeycomb nebula. Evidence is presented for an episodic jet from Eta Carinae. The compact globules with radial spokes in the Helix nebula have both been shown to have dusty, molecular cores. Finally, highspeed flows of ionized gas are shown to be associated with the compact knots in the vicinity of the Trapezium cluster in the Orion nebula.
