Asymmetrical Post-main-sequence Nebulae 8 e2021
The Shaping of Stellar Outflows
Links to webpages with contributed talks and e-Posters
A virtual meeting hosted in Granada, Spain held in October 4-8, 2021.
The meeting is devoted to the shaping effects of stellar outflows from evolved stars in the formation of asymmetrical post-main-sequence nebulae including planetary nebulae, nebulae around massive stars, nova remnants, symbiotic stars, ...
Three main topics will be covered:
I. Nebular Architecture: morphologies and dynamics across stellar mass and wavelength.
- Multi-wavelength properties of planetary nebulae and related nebulae, including nebulae around evolved massive stars, symbiotic stars, nova remnants, …
- Morphological diversity and statistics.
- Accreting and circumbinary disks: getting closer to the launching engine of collimated outflows and jets.
II. Nebular Sequences: time-evolving morphologies and physical structures.
- Nebular evolution from the ejection time to its dilution into the ISM.
- Comparative studies between proto-PNe and PNe and between pre-explosion shells and post-explosion remnants in CVs and evolved massive stars.
- Transient nebulae: born-again PNe, nova shells, and other eruptive objects and transients
III. The Engine of the Nebular Shaping: mass-loss mechanisms and their effects on the winds symmetry.
- Post-MS binary interactions: wide, close and interacting binaries, common envelopes, planets.
- Magnetic fields: strength, structure, effects, statistics.
- Mass-loss mechanisms: radiation pressure on dust, convection, rotation, non-radial pulsations.
- Collateral effects on stellar evolution, planetary nebulae population, chemistry.
