A detailed study of the reflection nebula, NGC 7023

Creators

Description

Polarisation and intensity maps in three broad wavebands are presented for the reflection nebula NGC7023. The data are used to investigate the structure, dust distribution and grain characteristics of the material surrounding the central illuminating star HD200775 of the reflection nebula. Calculations have been made, using a Monte Carlo technique, for various parameters representing the structure and content of the nebula to predict and explain the observed measurements. (author)
