Spectrophotometry and Multicolour Imagery of the Planetary Nebula around the P Cygni Star AG Carinae
Some of the high luminosity stars in our Galaxy are surrounded by planetary-like nebulae formed by material ejected from the central star. The most interesting case is that of the ring nebula PK 289–0°1 around...

Mass Loss from Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae with WC Spectrum
We derived mass loss rates for 5 central stars (CS) having WC spectrum: NGC 5315, BD+30 3639, He2-99, He2-113, SwSt-1. The values are substantially higher than other previous estimates based on UV data. We con...

Synthetic M/L B Ratios for E and S Galaxies
We report new calculations of M/L B ratios for galaxies, which are considered to be closed homogeneous systems. A Salpeter’s law was assumed for the initial mass function. The s...
