Our HST snapshot program looked for jets using the [N II] and H-alpha narrow-band filters. Although spectacular jets are found in proto-PNe, true jets seem rare among mature PNe. In the later group, IC 4593 is the best case in our sample. We distinguish between jets and a number of interesting ``jet-like'' features, e.g., ``cometary'' structures with a dense globule at the end facing the central star.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-10-01T18:00:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hubble space telescope", "asymmetrical nebulae", "h-alpha narrow-band filters", "central star", "hst snapshot program" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 519599 } } }
