«To do this,» explains Antonio Cabrera Lavers, head of astronomy at the GTC and one of the authors of the paper, «we have used for the first time the blue tunable filter of OSIRIS to take a deep image centred on the
emission from the recombination
lines of one of the
oxygen ions in the planetary nebula 6778.»
To try to corroborate this theory, an image of the
emission of a planetary nebula in the recombination
lines of
oxygen has been obtained with the GTC.
The light we received from the galaxy in the distant Universe tells us - from hydrogen,
oxygen, and neon
emission lines - that they followed a different rule to produce the heavy elements.
Spectra of some very hot and bluish stars exhibit marked
emission lines from carbon or nitrogen, or sometimes
oxygen.
Instead their spectra are dominated by broad
emission lines of highly ionized helium, nitrogen, carbon and sometimes
oxygen.
Rob — I'm not sure why you think the human origin of post-industrial CO2 increases is a subject of much uncertainty, since the conclusion resides in the convergence of multiple
lines of evidence that include measurements of C14, C13, C12, atmospheric
oxygen, volcanic activity, and records of industrial
emissions.
