Determinations of the plasma diagnostics and chemical compositions of planetary nebulae require ultimately high dispersion spectra. For objects of high surface brightness the Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph at Lick Observatory is satisfactory for the region 3650–10100Å which involves the 168th to 56th echelle orders. For a slit width of 640 μm amounting to 1.15 arcsec at the Coude focus, the actual spectral resolution (FWHM) is about 0.2Å at 8850Å. The length of the slit is chosen as 4.0 arcsec. Hyung (1994) & Aller (1994) describe the observing procedure. Since the Hamilton echelle was designed primarily for star-like sources, it is not useful for extended low surface brightness PN. The earlier observations were obtained with an 800 × 800 chip that did not cover the echelle field, so several settings were needed. Later, we used a slower 2048 × 2048 chip which covered the whole field and was somewhat more efficient at longer wavelengths. The program has been completed and definitive measurements have obtained for NGC 2440, NGC 6543, NGC 6741, NGC 6818, NGC 7026, NGC 7662, and Hu 1-2. All of these PN display particularly rich, interesting spectra. Previously observed and published objects include IC 351, IC 418, IC 2149, IC 4997, NGC 6567, NGC 6572, NGC 6790, NGC 6886, NGC 7009, BD +30 3639, & Hubble 12. NGC 6884 is in press. Additional nebulae which are yet to be discussed are IC 4634, IC 4846, IC 5117, NGC 6210, & NGC 6803.

We present high spatial resolution infrared images of the planetary nebulae NGC 7027, M2-9, BD +30 3639, NGC 7099 and NGC 7662. These were taken through a selection of broad and narrow-band line and continuum filters (including a Fabry-Pérot interferometer) using the 2D infrared array “IRCAM” on the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope, UKIRT, in July 1987. Comparison is made with recently published high-resolution VLA radio maps (Basart and Daub 1987, Ap. J., 317, 412) and mid-IR Wyoming Infrared Telescope raster-scanning maps (Bentley et al.1984, Ap. J., 278, 665).

The observations of nuclei of three planetary nebulae, NGC 6826, NGC 7662 and IC 4593, have been made as part of a more extensive program with the aim of obtaining their absolute spectrophotometric gradients (ϕ) and photographic magnitudes (from the spectrogram). The spectra were obtained with an 8–12′ Schmidt telescope combined with an objective prism (the dispersion is 420 Å/mm at Hγ). The preliminary data which were obtained at different times, particularly the spectrophotometric gradients of the nuclei of these nebulae, did not agree with each other.

Accurate chemical abundances for the following planetary nebulae (PNe); NGC 6537, He 2-111, NGC 6302, NGC 6445, NGC 6741, NGC 7027, NGC 7662, NGC 2440 and NGC 5315 have been derived using data from the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) and the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE). Optical data from the literature has also been used. These work has been published by Pottasch et al. (2001), Bernard Salas et al. (2001 and 2002). In particular, the use of the ISO data has reduced the need for ionization correction factors. Furthermore, infrared data avoid or reduce many problems when deriving these abundances, namely: temperature fluctuations in the nebula, and extinction corrections. The electron temperature (Te) and density of the PNe has been derived. For those PNe in which the Te has been derived for several ions a trend with the ionization potential is present. Ions with high stages of ionization give higher Te, probably because they are formed close to the central star. The chemical abundances measured in these PNe give some hint of the nucleosynthesis and mixing processes experienced by their progenitor stars. In this view, a preliminary comparison with synthetic TP-AGB models is made (Bernard Salas et al. (in prep.)). NGC 7027, NGC 6741, NGC 2440, and NGC 6445 are consistent with the occurrence of the 3rd dredge-up due to both C12 and He4 enrichment. NGC 6537, NGC 6302, and He 2-111 are likely to have stellar progenitors experiencing hot bottom burning due to the low C12 and high N14 abundances.
