PN discoveries and their spectral confirmation
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present the key results from an intensive and coordinated 10 year observational amateur program designed to uncover and confirm Galactic Planetary Nebulae (PNe).
Description
This has been undertaken and led by a dedicated group of largely French amateur astronomers in collaboration with professional colleagues. Over this period this group has uncovered a total of 209 spectroscopically confirmed True, Likely and Possible Galactic PNe with the work accelerating over the last 3 years in particular.
These new discoveries represents ~5% of all 3831 True, Likely and Possible Galactic PNe currently known according to the HASH database as of March 2022. A further 610 PNe candidates are awaiting follow-up. These figures demonstrate the power and value of the amateur community in undertaking a coordinated and focused program such as this.
