AbstractDue to interstellar extinction, optical census of Galactic planetary nebulae (PNs) is highly incomplete, and some compact H ii regions might have been mis-classified as PNs. The problem is particularly severe in the Galactic plane where the extinction in the optical is significant and hampers the detections of PNs. Unlike optical observations, infrared (IR) observations are hardly affected by interstellar extinction, and provide a good opportunity to study highly obscured PNs. In this study, we use the data from the Spitzer Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire 3D (GLIMPSE 3D) to investigate the mid-infrared (MIR) properties of PNs and PN candidates.

AbstractAlthough it has long been hypothesised that core-collapse supernovae may produce large quantities of dust, interest in this problem has recently been rekindled given the enormous dust masses inferred at very high redshifts (z ≳ 6), when conventional low-mass dust-producing stars would fail to contribute significantly to the universal dust budget. Emission due to warm dust peaks at mid-IR wavelengths. However, with the notable exception of SN 1987A, supernova studies in the mid-IR have been virtually non-existent until the advent of the Spitzer Space Telescope. On behalf of the Mid-Infrared Supernova Consortium, I briefly discuss recent exciting results from mid-IR studies of core-collapse supernovae using Spitzer and attempt to put the role of supernovae as major dust producers into perspective.
