We investigate the extent of this problem in IC 418, a PN chosen for its great surface brightness and perceived visually uncomplicated geometry, through the use of high resolution (Rm 30000 = 10 km sec“1 at 6500A) echelle emission spectroscopy in the optical regime (3500-9850A). These observations allow us to construct the most detailed list of atomic emission lines ever compiled for IC 418, and among the most detailed from among all PNe. Ionic abundances are calculated from the fluxes Of numerous weak (1 X 10"5 H5) atomic emission lines from the ions of C,N,O, and Ne, using the most recent and accurate atomic transition information presently available. The high resolution of these Spectra provides well-defined line profiles, which, coupled with the perceived simplicity of the object’s expansion velocity distribution, allows us to better determine where in the nebula lines are formed, and where the ions that produce them are concentrated. Evidence for “non-conventional” line excita- tion mechanisms, such as continuum fluorescence from the ground state or enhanced dielectronic recombination, is sought in the profile morphologies and relative line strengths. Non-conventional excitation processes may influence the strengths of lines enough to significantly alter abundances calculated from them. Our calculations Show that recombination line-derived abundances exceed those derived from collisionally excited lines, for those ions for which we observed lines of both types: 0+, 0”, and Ne+2 by real and varying amounts. We find that both continuum fluorescence and dielectronic recombination excites numerous lines in IC 418, but that there is no evidence in our data that either process is responsible for the observed overabundances in all recombination lines as opposed to their collisionally excited counterparts. The calculated levels of temperature fluctuations in the zones in which these ion reside are dubious, and significantly exceed model predicted values. In summary, no satisfactory, single universally applicable answer to the abundance discrepancy problem shown to exist by us in IC 418, is revealed by our observations. We developed several new techniques to analyze these data. Of particular in- terest is EMILI (Emission Line Identifier), a public-domain program that utilizes a comprehensive atomic transition list and a set of Simple tests and criteria, to quickly provide its user with a list of rank ordered IDS for unidentified emission lines found in deep, high resolution spectra. Presented here are the results of applying EMILI to the identification of weak emission lines in the spectra of IC 418 and other PNe.

Each rougly horr- izontal dark strip is an echelle order, with wavelength increasing from left to right within an order, and from top to bottom across adjacent orders. Nebular and night sky emission lines, represented as “blobs” and more narrow strips respectively, can be seen superimposed within the orders. Atmospheric absorption bands appear as “bright” bands within an order (see 7 orders from the bottom). Scattered light ob- jects and ghosts (objects between and intruding into orders) can also be seen. Flares eminated from the bright saturated lines of Ha and the flanking [N 11] doublet AA6538,6584A at the rough center right of the image. Cosmic rays appear as small pin prick strikes across the entire spectrum. ................................. 27 2.3 Segment from the co—added blue l—D flux calibrated spectra. Numerous weak emission lines can be seen. Steps for reducing 2-D spectra to 1-D spectra are given in the text. ...................... 28 2.4 A blown-up portion of the 2-D blue spectrum, showing emission lines of differing profile morphology depending upon the ionization energy of the line’s parentage. The “central cavity” in the [N 1] lines is created by the diflerential expansion of the nebula, its ionization stratification, and the effect of looking through the nebula to intercept the same spherically expanding shell. At the center of the slit, most of the expansion velocity is in the direction of the observer, leading to a larger Doppler shift in the line profile, whereas at the edges, the expansion velocity is more perpendicular to the line of sight, hence the “donut” shape of the lines on the 2-D spectrum. The dashed lines Show the extraction windows over which the order was summed at each column in the CCD. ............................... 29 xi 2.5 A comparision between the extracted Spectrum, calibrated with the fit to the sensitivity function used to calibrate the nebular Spectra, and a tabulated low resolution spectrum (Humay et al. 1994) for the flux standard star {2 Cet (HR 718). The smooth curve is the tabulated spectrum, whereas the somewhat more broken curve is the flux cal- ibrated spectrum. Over most of the orders the two Spectra nearly overlap, typically to better than 5%. There is some deviation on the edges of orders as indicated by the “spikes” sticking out above the smooth curve. .............................. 2.6 A portion of the full Slit blue spectrum extracted from the order shown in Figure 2.4. This demonstrates the differing profile morphologies exhibited by lines whose parents ions are of different ionization poten- tials. Higher ionization lines, such as [Ar III] A5191.8A on the left have more Gaussian-like profiles, while low ionization lines, such as the [N I] doublet on the right have double peaked Gaussian-like profiles, as in- fluenced by the differential expansion velocity of the nebula exceeding the thermally generated width of the line. ............... 2.7 A portion of the 2-D red spectrum which depicts an obvious night Sky emission line near the center of the image. Note that it fills the entire slit rather than just the portion superimposed on the nebula, as the adjacent nebular line does. Both lines sit on the wing of the broad nebular emission line blend of O I A8446A on the left edge of the picture. From Osterbock et al. (1996) the night sky line is most likely 6-2 P2(3.5) A8452.250A, a vibration-rotational transition of the terestrial OH molecule, and has a FWHM of z 9 km 8‘1 which is the instrumental resolution. The adjacent nebular line we believe is He I A8451.158. ................................ 2.8 The absolute value of the wavelength difference (in km sec"1 ) between the reddest and bluest measures (A 1am E reddest - bluest) among those used to compute the final line wavelength values, versus the minimum 8/ N among all the measures.

Near the end of their lives, such stars bloat, becoming large giant and supergiant stars, the result of rapid burning of nuclear fuel in Shells around an inert electron- degenerate core. The burning iS erratic, and in concert with the star’s outer distended layer’s low surface gravity and strong radiation pressure, pulsational instability begins to set in and eventually strip the star of its outer skin. The core is exposed and becomes the “central star” of the PN, whereas the giant star’s former outer layers continue to expand to sizes of a light year or more, becoming the Shell or ring commonly seen in PNe. While nuclear fusion in the system has ceased with the departure of the outer layers, the still white-hot core is capable of ionizing and exciting the former stellar envelope with its copious UV photons, leading to the emission Spectra observed for PNe. Our own sun is predicted to be destined for just such a fate in approximately 4.5-5.0 billion years. PNe provide a set of universally “old” (at least several billion years, approaching the characteristic age of our galaxy) objects, from whose spectra elemental abun- dances can be determined. It is thought that the precusors of PNe, asymptotic red giant branch stars, can produce iron-peak and trans-iron elements in the S-proceSS in their distended envelopes, and there is some evidence that elements normally associ- ated with the r-process can also be synthesized there as well (Balteau et a1. 1995). However, PNe precursors do not generally process any elements both lighter than iron and heavier than oxygen in their interiors, and their outer shells preserve a record of the level of enrichment of the gas in those elements at the time and place they formed. The Spatial and kinematic distribution of PNe, along with the abundances determined from their spectra, provide a means to gauge the chemical composition of the gas throughout our galaxy at a much earlier epoch. Such information provides an important constraint on the chemical enrichment models and mechanisms proposed for galaxies. Thus PNe are important on two levels, as a test of both stellar and galactic evolution. Emission lines are the chief means of determining the physical attributes of PNe and H II regions such as the Orion Nebula. Indeed almost everything known about PNe properties, including temperature, density, and composition, is derived from understanding and interpreting the strengths and ratios of the strengths of the various emission lines which dominate their spectra. AS such, it is important to understand the mechanisms that give rise to individual lines. A Significant effort has been invested over the years to do precisely that, and methods of interpreting the strengths of such lines based upon our understanding of their formation mechanisms have been developed (Osterbrock 1989). These methods have been considered among the most reliable in all of astronomy. However, the advent of significant improvements in the calculation of important components of line strength equations, the opening of the UV frontier via Space- borne instruments, and improving observational techniques, have brought to light a significant aberration in the results Obtained with these methods. This casts into doubt the level of our understanding of emission line formation mechanisms which underpin this work. We begin with a discussion of the components of emission line Spectra and the mechanisms which dominate the creation of lines in these Spectra. This is followed by a discussion of how abundances and other physical attributes of emission-line regions are determined from the strengths of these lines. The history of the abundance determination problem and the merits of proposed solutions conclude this chapter. 1.1 The Emission Line Spectra of PNe PNe and H II regions have spectra dominated by two types of emission lines which overlie a weaker continuum. The two types of emission lines are recombination lines (RL) and collisionally-excited (CL) so—called “forbidden” lines. Each has a different formation mechanism. Recombination lines (RL) are as advertised: lines created from the cascade of an electron recaptured to an excited level en-route to the ground state of an ion. The strongest examples of such lines in the visible part Of the Spectrum are the Balmer series of neutral hydrogen. Line strengths for RL are directly proportional to the number density of the source ion. Their value is two-fold. First, because the lines form during cascades, their strengths depend mainly upon the transition probabilities (i.e. Einstein coefficients) between the initial and final levels along the cascade path, which do not depend on temperature. The strength also depends upon the recombination cross section of the ion, and therefore the thermal properties (temperature) of the free electrons, but the overall temperature dependence is generally very weak. For example for H5 the temperature dependence takes the form z T""8 (Osterbrock 1989). Thus RL are mostly free of the effects of any temperature fluctuations along the observational line of sight. N ebular temperatures can be determined by comparing the strength of strong recombination lines with the continuum difference around the Balmer jump. However, until recently using this method has been difficult due to the confusion of the continuum level in the vicinity of the jump caused by line crowding at the limit, as well as other effects. Secondly, RL are mostly free of Optical depth effects (with the only exception being recaptures into the ground state) and intensities are thought to suffer only minimally from resonance absorption or scattering along the line of sight. This is due primarily to the extremely short (z 10"8 S) lifetimes of excited levels relative to the lifetime of ions against ionization. This may not hold, however, for ions with meta-stable excited states (such as the 28 38 term in neutral helium for example), for which absorption of line photons or the continuum from the central star can be a factor. Thus RL are ideally suited for abundance determinations of PNe. However only very abundant species, such as hydrogen and helium, have RL that are strong enough 4 to be easily separable from the continuum. Collisionally excited lines (CL) arise from collisions between free electrons, stripped from abundant elements by the central star’s photoionizing radiation, and plentiful ions. The Boltzman factor at typical nebular temperatures limits the exci- tations from the ground state to only low-lying energy levels. However, in the case of multi-electron ions with energy levels within only a few eV of the ground state, such as exists for 0+2, collisional excitation is the chief populator of such levels, with re— combination and cascade to the excited levels providing only a minimal contribution at typical nebular temperatures. Transitions between these levels, so called forbidden transitions, are normally prohibited by electric dipole selection rules and cannot be excited directly by line photons or by those in the continuum provided by the diffuse gas or the central star. Such transitions can only occur in a diffuse enviornment where the time scale of collisonal de-ercitation of such levels becomes as long as the lifetime of the collisionally excited level against spontaneous decay and release of a photon. In the diffuse gas of a PN, where the electron density N, % 103/cm3, electron collisions are most certainly rare, but collisional de-excitation is even rarer. The emission of a line photon during decay iS more likely to occur before collisional de-excitation. Indeed CL are often the strongest and in many cases the only lines observed in the visible region of the spectrum for many ions of less abundant heavy elements. The [0 III] lines at AA4959,5007 are often the strongest emission lines observed in PNe and H II regions. CL are used to gauge electron properties of PNe, since they arise from electron collisions, and because of their easy observability. The electron temperature is most often measured by comparing the sum of intensities of [0 III] A4959 + A5007 which originate from the same level, with the intensity [O III] A4363, which terminates at the same level the others begin at. Although these [0 III] lines are the most commonly employed, similar temperature measures can be made with other ions with strong CL, such as those of N+. Since this ion is of lower ionization energy, and because nebulae have ionization stratification, such diagnostics measure the temperature from different parts of an emission line region. Electron densities can also be measured by comparing the ratios of CL of the same ion, the ratios of [O II] A3729/ A3726 and [S II] A6716/ A6731 being the most commonly used. However, the Maxwell-Boltzman equilibrium distribution established by the rapidly colliding electrons introduces an exponential temperature dependence as well as a T’l/2 factor in the collisional rates. Thus, CL intensities are susceptible to temperature fluctuations within the region where they form. Because of this strong dependence on temperature in general, CL are not ideally suited for abundance de— terminations. Together RL and CL form the emission line spectrum. The underlying contin- uum radiatively derives from several sources. These include recombination to various abundant ions, such as H+, He+ (first ionized hydrogen and helium), and He”, Bremsstrahlung between free electron states through interactions of free electrons with these ions, the continuum from the central star, and the continuum formed by the two-photon process which dominates the transition from the 28 level of neutral hydrogen to the ls level of the ground state, a transition ruled out by electric dipole selection rules for single photon emission. 1.2 Abundance Determinations The intensity of a line, regardless of the mechanism which led to the excitation of its source level, is directly proportional to the population of the level within the ion from which it arises, n,, the rate at which the transition occurs Aij, and the photon energy, huij: Ioc /n,;A,-th,-j, (1.1) For recombination lines, among levels with energy high energy that collisional excitation from the ground state plays no significant role, the processes which populate and de—populate a particular level must be in equilibrium, Since the line strengths are not time varying. In the absence Of photoionization from an excited level (a good assumption given the short lifetimes of the excited levels versus the ionization rate under nebular conditions) the population of a level depends upon direct recombination to that level and cascades to and from that level. The population of a level i may determined from: 00 2—1 NNea,-(Te) + Z nkAk, = ”12 Aik, (1.2) k>i k 3', the intensity of a particular line can then be expressed: I = NN.af,-”(T.)hu.j.

It would also not affect temperature determinations made from CL of other lower ionization ions located in other parts of the emission-line object. Liu et al. (2000) found that while the abundances of elements as derived from their CL were almost a factor of ten smaller than those derived from their RL, the ratios of CL abundances of one ion to another are nearly equal to ratios of RL abundances of the same two ions, a finding that they cannot reconcile with their own two component models of RL 14 and CL sources. Garnett & Dinerstein (2001b) question both the origin of metal-rich condensations, as proposed by Liu et al. (2001), and why they Should appear only in the most evolved PNe, which they claim Show the biggest abundance discrepancy in 0+2. Finally such condensations might be to small to directly observe. Viegas & Clegg (1994) predict that the condensations would be of 0.1 ” in angular extent, barely resolvable by the HST. Shock Waves: It has also been proposed that an additional energy source within a nebula, such as shock waves, may act to contribute additional excitation of both forbidden lines ([8 II] A4069,4076 Esteban et al. 1998) and recombination lines (e.g. Multiplet 15 lines in 0+2). Garnett & Dinerstein (2001b) suggest that dielectronic recombination, enhanced by such additional energy input, may totally explain the abundance dis- crepancy seen in this particular ion. Evidence for shocks in nebulae is not direct, but their existence is widely suspected and indirectly inferred (see Liu et al. 1995a, Esteban et al. 1999 and references therein). These shocks may arise as a consequence of interactions between stellar winds arising in different phases of the PNe evolution and the progenitor’s outer envelop gas, or in the case of H II regions, from winds flowing off the ionizing star or stars. The difference seen in the magnitude of the abundance discrepancy from PN to PN would then arise from the propagation time of the shock through the nebular gas. Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a) saw an anti- correlation between surface brightness, a proxy for nebular age, and the level of 0+2 abundance discrepancy. They interpreted this as the shock not having propogated as far in the younger PNe. 15 However as pointed out by Liu et al. (1995a) such processes can only selectively excite certain lines in certain elements. It’s difficult to see how processes affecting only certain lines can influence abundance determinations enough to obtain the abundance discrepancies seen in overall elemental abundances from multiple Species, as they are observed in NGC 7009. Liu et al. (2000) saw no correlation between ionic abundance discrepancy and ionization potential in NGC 6153, suggesting that the discrepancy may have nothing to do with the temperature structure or local temperature-driven phenomenon such as di-electronic recombination induced by shocks. The constancy of ratio of collisionally-excited Species seen by Liu et al. (2000) also argues for some sort of global problem. Continuum Fluorescence: Excitation from the ground state via the continuum radiation from the central star of a PN or the exciting star of a H II region may play a large role in the excitation of certain levels. Even for forbidden lines, an increased population of their source levels (induced by cascades following excitations to higher permitted levels) may be Significant, at low nebular temperatures. Grandi (1975a) Showed that the intensity of the O I permitted line A8446, observed in the Orion Nebula, could not be produced entirely by either pure recombination or any other standard mechanism. His calculations failed to reproduce the observed intensity ratio with respect to Ha by any Single or combination of methods by over two orders of magnitude, although calculations utilizing continuum fluorescence could explain its strength. Evidence for a strong continuum fluorescence influence on certain lines of N I was advanced in Grandi (1975b), and Grandi (1976) Spectulated on the 16 large role it may have in the excitation of numerous other lines in PNe. More recently, Esteban et al. (1999) saw excessive line strengths for [Fe II] lines of multiplet 7F, as compared to other [Fe 11] lines from other multiplets, that may indicate the presence of a large continuum fluorescence contribution. Lucy (1995) invoked starlight continuum fluorescence to explain the apparent super—solar Ni/ Fe ratio observed in the Orion Nebula. Both Liu et al. (1995b) and Bautista (1999) saw the potential for continuum fluorescence contributions to the intensity of neutral species forbidden lines. Ferland (1992) suggested that his models (incorporating an attenuated continuum flux) can explain the anomalous difference in intensities seen between two strong lines of N+2 which cannot be explained by the action of the Bowen1 mechanism alone. Peimbert et al. (1993) confirmed that the starlight continuum may account for the unusual strength of the N+2 permitted line A4641 in M17, which is one of the products of the above Bowen mechanism. Finally Esteban et al. (1998) identified a variety of permitted lines potentially Significantly driven by continuum fluorescence in the Orion Nebula. As with the other mechanisms, this one too has problems. Often only levels with energy below 1 Ryd can be excited in nebular environments, due to large optical depths for A _<_ 912A, the result of absorption by abundant hydrogen. Stellar contin- uum radiation also diminishes severally with distance away from the central star. As with di-electronic recombination and Bowen fluorescence, it is a selective exciter. In summary, several different mechanisms and conditions have been advanced to 1The Bowen Mechanism is the excitation of a specific transition by line photons emitted at a nearly identical wavelength in a strong resonance line of an abundant ion (Bowen 1924). 17 explain the unusual abundance discrepancy, each Showing problems as well as promise. The effects of each mechanism on RL and CL needs to be better understood, so our understanding of line formation mechanisms as a whole may be improved, and our interpretations made more physically meaningful. 1.5 IC 418 We choose for observation the bright southern PN IC 418 (PN G# 215.2-24.2) located at RA 5:27:28.3 and Dec -12:41:48.22 (J2000). This PN has attributes which makes it a good target for high resolution spectroscopy, and subsequent abundance analysis. 1. Simple Geometry. Visual inspection of images of IC 418 in wide band filters indicate that the nebula appears visually uncomplicated, consisting of co-centric Spherical Shells, uncomplicated by large-scale turbulent velocity flows. This view is consistent with early models of IC 418 by Flower ( 1969) and Reay & Worswick (1979). Thus, line profiles will be dominated by the local thermal properties and the expansion velocity distribution of the nebular gas, making them easier to fit with confidence (in many cases by a simple Gaussian functions). Narrow band, emission line images of IC 418, also suggest a simple ionization stratification. Lines from ions with low ionization potentials are further away from the center, and lines from ions with higher ionization potentials further in. Given the expansion velocity gradient present in the nebula, in which the outer portions of the nebula expand faster than the inner portions, lines from the same ion or from ions with nearly the same ionization potential Should Show the same 18 profiles if they are produced by the same excitation mechanism, or differing profiles if they are not. 2. Extremely Bright Nebulosity and Central Star IC 418 has the largest surface brightness (measured in terms of the flux of radiation in the H5 line per unit 1 2 area: 2.33 x 10“12 erg sec‘ cm’ arcsec‘2) of any PNe available at the time and location of our observations. Thus a small Slit area, necessary for high dispersion echelle spectroscopy, can capture a Significant amount of flux from the nebula. The bright central star of this nebula, with a V band magnitude of 10.17, makes it easier to detect resonance absorption lines (Williams et al. 2003) 3. Large Proper/LSR velocity The helio-centric velocity of IC418 is quite large, moving night Sky emission lines away from their nebular counterparts. More importantly, the velocity of IC 418 with respect to the local standard or rest (LSR) iS also quite large (61 km /S) Since the interstellar medium (ISM) is the primary source of absorption lines, any nebular gas absorption is separated and distinct from the ISM produced absorption components, simplifying their use in abundance analysis. The only drawback to the choice of IC 418 is its low ionization, meaning lines from ions with high ionization potentials will not be readily observable. However, low ionization generally indicates a young PN. Thus, we should be able to test the theories of Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a,b) that younger PNe Should not Show a large discrepancy in O+2 abundance due to the absence of Shock-enhanced di-electronic 19 — recombination, since our spectra Span the richest area of 0+2 optical RL. Finally, IC 418 has seldom been subjected previously to high resolution spec- troscopy, Hyung, Aller, & Feibelman (1994) (hereafter HAF) are one of only a hand- ful of known examples, and never to an extensive abundance analysis with as many lines as are expected to be revealed by the depth of the Spectroscopy employed here. HAF used a combination of echelle spectroscopy and IUE observations to compare the intensities of the C III] AA1907,1909 collisionally excited intercombination lines with the strong C II A4267 recombination line. They found that the recombination derived abundance exceeded the collisionally excited value by a factor of three. How- ever, they computed abundances for other ions only from collisionally excited lines, deeming the recombinations present in the spectra too weak to make meaningful abundance determinations. Henry, Kwitter, & Bates (2000) (hereafter HKB) also used IUE Observations in the UV and optical spectroscopy to make abundance de- terminations in IC 418. However the Spectra sampled different regions in the nebula, the Spectroscopy was of much lower resolution than that employed here, and again only collisionally excited lines were used to measure abundances. Preliminary comparisons between these data and an archival HST STIS absorp- tion Spectrum we have obtained of the IC 418 central star, Show a disagreement between the ratio of abundances of Fe+ to Ni+ derived from absorption line analysis as compared to the same ratio derived from collisionally excited lines (Williams et al. 2003). This despite the Similarities in low level ionization potentials, recombina- tion coefficients, and condensation temperatures. Also, the STIS spectrum shows a distinct C+4 absorption feature, whereas the strongest predicted C+3 recombination 20 emission lines, which Share the same ionic parentage as the absorption feature, are barely visible in our emission Spectrum. So while previous studies have suggested that the abundance problem exists in this object, the full extent of the abundance discrepancy problem if any, has not been determined, and warrants further study. 1.6 Goals The goal of these observations are to gauge the abundance discrepancy problem in IC 418, and to carry out simple tests that can help us to understand the potential origins of the problem, by making use of the advantages of deep (long exposure time), high resolution echelle Spectroscopy, which provides here well defined line profiles, minimization of line blending, and continuous coverage over a large bandpass spanning 3500A to 9850A. The high resolution will allow us to examine recombination line profiles for consistency within and between multiplets of the same ion, and to compare them with profiles of collisionally excited forbidden lines arising from the same ion. Differences in profiles may indicate differing excitation ionic parentage, and invalidate comparisons in abundance made between such lines. The large bandpass and depth of the observations will allow the Simultaneous calculation of abundances from many different ionic species and elements, at the same place within the nebula, including calculations from the strengths of weak recombination lines only revealed in Spectra of this depth and quality. We will also take this opportunity to develop tools to help automate and improve 21 the processes of line detection, measurement, and identification. The wealth of in- formation provided by spectra of a quality similar to our own, which are now readily available from today’s generation of instruments, demands software tools to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the data reduction and analysis. 22 Chapter 2 Observations and Reductions Here I summarize the equipment used and steps employed to obtain and reduce the observed Spectra and to obtain a list of flux-calibrated emission lines for analysis. The accuracy of line measurements post-reduction is provided, and the process utilized to identify the lines concludes this section. Supplemental material may be found in Appendix A, B, and C. 2. 1 Observations Spectra were obtained with the echelle Spectrograph on the Cassegrain focus of the Blanco 4 m telescope at Cerro-Tololo Inter-American Observatory during the course of five consecutive photometric nights, UT 26-31 December 2001. The spectra were imaged on a SITe 2048x2048 CCD, set to a gain of 1.1 e‘/ADU and with a read noise of 3 e‘ per pixel. To improve the signal to noise, CCD pixels in the direction of the slit were binned by a factor of two. 23 Figure 2.1 Approximate slit posistion with respect to an HST image of IC 418 (Ciar- dullo et al. 1999). The width of the slit is 1” and the length shown here corresponds to the 11.9” long decker employed in the blue and intermediate set-ups. The slit was first centered on the IC 418 at (12000 = 5"27’"28.33, 62000 2 —12°41’48”, rotated to a position angle of 180 degrees, then offset #4” west, to a final position with respect to the nebula as depicted in Fig. 2.1. The slit was nominally aligned with the same portion of the nebula throughout an observing night. As a consequence there was some spatial smearing at blue wavelengths due to the changing direction of the atmospheric dispersion as the night progressed. The position of the slit avoided the central star, and intersects bright regions of the nebula as seen in emission line HST WFPC2 images (Ciardullo et al. 1999). To reach the desired resolution of 9 km/sec (z 0.2A at 6500A), a 1” width slit was used. To cover as wide a wavelength range as possible at this resolution, three instrumental set-ups were utilized, designated here 24 as blue, intermediate, and red. Two observing nights were dedicated to both the blue and red set-ups, with the final night assigned to the intermediate set-up. The blue Spectra were taken using a 79.1 grooves mrn‘1 echelle grating and a 316 grooves mm‘1 cross disperser (grating KPGL2), with no order separator filter. This set-up utilized the long blue camera and blue collimator, to yield a plate scale of 0.27” per pixel at the CCD (0.56” per binned pixel). The grating tilt was set to allow full coverage of the wavelength range 3500-5950A. A 11.9” Slit length (decker length) was used, the longest length possible under this set-up to avoid order overlap in the 2-D images. The nebula filled nearly the entire slit (as seen in Figure 2.1). The total area imaged by the Slit from the nebula was 1” x 11.9”. The intermediate red Spectra were taken using a 31.6 grooves mm"1 echelle grat- 1 cross disperser (grating G181), and an order sep- ing, a different 316 grooves mm" arator filter (GC495). This set-up utilized the long red camera and red collimator, with focal ratios identical to their blue counterparts, yielding the same plate scale at the CCD. The grating tilt (1207) was set to allow continuous wavelength coverage 5090-7425A which overlaps some of the regions covered by the other two set-ups. The 11.9” decker length was again utilized, with the Slit imaging the same 1” x 11.9” area of the nebula as was imaged under the blue set-up. The red Spectra were taken with the same Optical set-up as the intermediate red Spectra, but with a different order separator filter (RG610), and with a different grating tilt (560), to allow continuous coverage of the wavelength region 7350-9865A. Spectral orders under this set-up were Spaced further apart on the CCD, allowing the use of a slightly larger decker length, which we employed to maximize the observed 25 Table 2.1 Observing journal for IC 418 observations.

An area of 1” x 19.6” centered at the same position as the other set-ups, was imaged under this set-up. The nebula filled roughly two-thirds of the length of the Slit at this decker size. A series of short (30-300 sec) and longer (1000—1800 sec) duration exposures were taken throughout each of the observing nights, yielding 2-D spectra, an example of which is shown in Figure 2.2. Table 2.1 lists the numbers and duration of exposures for each observing night, as well as associated instrumental set-ups. The Short ex- posures were used to accurately measure the fluxes of strong emission lines which quickly saturated the CCD. Repeated longer exposures were taken for eventual co- addition to improve signal—to-noise and enhance the detection of weak lines against the continuum. Spectra of flux standard stars and calibration frames were also taken each night. 26 ’\\M\\\Mlbilfimhmhmll‘mll .. ‘illhl'l‘ . l - 1M\\I\\M\M\\\ll\\ll\\l\lm\M‘lillllhllll \ t\lll\\lM\\ll\l\li\‘i\ \\ ,\\.

Initial processing of the raw 2-D Spectra, namely image trimming, bias correction, flat fielding, and scattered light correction were carried out using stan- dard techniques (see Appendix A) as implemented in IRAF1 tasks. Dark current appeared negligible in our exposures and no attempt was made to correct for it. 1IRAF is distributed by National Optical Astronomical Observatories, which is operated by Asso- ciation of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under cooperative agreement with National Science Foundation. 28 [Ar [11] 5191.3 [N [15197.9 [N I] 5200.3 IIII IIIIIIII - IIIIII III-l.

Figure 2.4 A blown-up portion of the 2-D blue spectrum, showing emission lines of differing profile morphology depending upon the ionization energy of the line’s parent- age. The “central cavity” in the [N 1] lines is created by the differential expansion of the nebula, its ionization stratification, and the effect of looking through the nebula to intercept the same spherically expanding shell. At the center of the Slit, most of the expansion velocity is in the direction of the observer, leading to a larger Doppler Shift in the line profile, whereas at the edges, the expansion velocity is more perpendicular to the line of sight, hence the “donut” shape of the lines on the 2-D spectrum. The dashed lines Show the extraction windows over which the order was summed at each column in the CCD. 1-D spectra were extracted from processed images (the 2-D spectra), using a combination of the standard IRAF echelle package task apall for all flux standard star and calibration spectra, and a modified version of the Spectral extraction program employed by Rauch et al. (1990) for all nebular Spectra. Both routines sum the counts along a specified fraction of the Slit length at each position along the path of each order. The Ranch et al. routines allowed the simultaneous creation of a companion error array, during the extraction process, for each extracted 1-D Spectrum. The 29 errors (10 uncertainties) were calculated incorporating both the CCD read noise and photon shot noise added in quadrature along the specified extraction length. Spectra were extracted over both the full slit length (11.9” for the blue and intermediate setup, 19.8” in the red), and over a smaller length of 6.5” corresponding to the limits of the ”central cavity region” exhibited by many lines of low ionization species (see Figure 2.4). The modified Ranch et al. extraction routines also flagged individual isolated pixels that exceeded a Specified flux threshold as probable cosmic rays, by assigning the total flux extracted along the column containing the pixel with a large variance. During later variance weighted co-addition, the positions in each spectrum where these artifacts occurred were given lower weights in the sum. The full slit length spectra were used to detect extremely weak lines more efficiently, while the smaller Slit length spectra were used to provide a uniform set of emission line fluxes sampled from the same area of the nebula under each instrumental set-up. Since the nebula completely filled the slit length in two of the instrumental set-ups, no sky subtraction was done during the nebular extraction. The scattered light subtraction, obtained from fits to the regions of the spectra between the orders, was utilized to establish the zero point of the flux scale. Wavelength calibration was accomplished through the use of ThAr comparison lamp spectra taken periodically throughout the night, using the IRAF task ecidentify. The RMS errors of the final fits to the dispersion solution were generally on the order of 0.5—1.0 km sec‘1 for the blue and intermediate set-ups, and 1.0-1.5 km sec‘1 for the red set-up. The smaller number of non-saturated ThAr reference lines in the red spectra, is primarily responsible for the increased scatter in the red spectra solutions. 30 However the error is well below the individual pixel size of about 3 km sec‘1 in all Spectra. Each extracted 1-D standard star and nebular Spectrum was re-binned to a linear wavelength scale from the ThAr comparison 1-D Spectra taken nearest in time to that spectrum. The nebular Spectra were flux calibrated by employing spectra of the standard stars 62 Cet, 29-Psc, and 0 Crt, taken with a 6.6” slit oriented parallel to the parallactic angle, obtained at the beginning and end of each night. The Spectra of the flux standard stars were extracted, wavelength calibrated, and compared to tabulated, low resolution flux calibrated spectra of the same star taken at contiguous 16A intervals (Hamuy et al. 1994). A “sensitivity” function that converts total counts within a pixel in the extracted Spectra to units of flux was then established by fitting a multiplicative function whose efiects bring the two standard star spectra into alignment, using in the IRAF task sensfunc. Prior to wavelength calibrattion, to improve the quality of the fit, each spectra was divided by a spectrum representing the combined signature of the blaze function and a black body. The continuum was strongly non-linear on the edges of the orders, where the blaze function was at its minimum, and in the vicinity of broad stellar and atmospheric absorption features. This division has the effect of flattening the standard star spectra, making it more tractable to fit the sensitivity function with a lower order function. This was necessary in order to constrain the sensitivity function fits which were based upon only a dozen or so calibration points across each echelle order. A flat field spectrum of a quartz-iodide continuum source, taken through the narrowest possible decker (1”), was obtained each night for the purpose of flattening 31 the spectra. This spectrum was extracted in the same manner as the standard star Spectra, and divided into each standard star and object Spectrum prior to wavelength calibration. The resultant sensitivity functions were then applied to all other object Spectra taken within that night. A comparison between a flux calibrated standard star spectrum employing this sensitivity function and the original low-resolution spectrum is shown in Figure 2.5. The two spectra essentially overlap, with only 1-5% difference between continuum levels except along the extreme edges of orders where the echelle blaze yields a minimum intensity. Individual flux calibrated object spectra within an instrumental set-up, with Sim- ilar exposure times and extraction widths, were then co-added. A correction for instrumental flexure afl'ecting wavelength alignment between individual spectra was made beforehand. This was accomplished by choosing a fiducial spectrum within an object group, calculating the average shift in wavelength of a series of strong lines observed in each of the other spectra relative to the fiducial’s values, then adding an additional shift equal to the amount necessary to bring the fiducial’s measure of a strong night Sky line wavelength into alignment with the laboratory value. This put each individual Spectrum onto an absolute wavelength scale exhibiting an average 1 within each group. To account for the possibility of scatter of about :El km sec" variable cloud obscuration of the object in between individual exposures, or between those taken on differing nights, the individual Spectra were scaled in flux to another chosen fiducial exhibiting the strongest average flux value for a series of strong emis- sion lines. This assumes that the brightest Spectra was the one least likely to have been obscured by clouds. Spectra were then added together using the average value at 32 .330 £095 23 96% ”:5 wamxosm amofiams one 3 @3865 mm @820 mo 835 on... :o 5335c mEOm mm 823.

Cosmic rays were effectively rejected from the calculated average at each pixel, due to the large sigma assigned to the pixels in which they were located during the extraction process, and the use of sigma clipping. Final spectra derived from individual spec- tra of both short and long duration and of differing extraction widths along the slit were constructed for all three instrumental set-ups in this manner. Spectra created from from individual short duration exposure spectra (30 sec, 120 sec, 300 sec) are denoted short, those from long duration exposure (1000 sec, 1800 sec) labeled long. Those Spectra extracted from the full length of the slit are called full, while those from the extracted over the position of the slit corresponding to the central cavity region are called cavity. Table 2.2 includes the total effective integration times of each extracted spectra. The blue spectra exhibited artifacts known as Rowland ghosts, which arise from beat frequencies due to periodic ruling errors from the 79 grooves cm‘1 echelle grating used in the blue set-up, and are a commonly known anomaly of spectra obtained with 34 this class of grating. These ghosts manifest themselves as two pairs of symmetrically positioned emission lines flanking real, strong emission lines in the extracted spectra. The position and strength of these ghost lines is related to the position and strength of the line they flank. The method of Baldwin et a1. (2000) was followed in modeling the ghosts with a kernel, convolving it with the spectra, then subtracting off the convolved spectra from the original spectra. No Rowland ghosts were evident in the intermediate and red set-up spectra, which were taken with a different echelle grating. Emission line detection was carried out on the long, full object spectra using the program RDGEN (Carswell et al. 2001). This program automatically finds emission lines above a specified threshold related to signal-to-noise (S / N). Details of its oper- ation may be found in Appendix B. RDGEN provided estimates of the center wave- length, full width at half maximum (FWHM), and S/ N for each detected line. The original 2-D spectra were then examined to remove spurious line detections caused by residual scattered light artifacts, specifically cross-CCD flares which arise from a combination of the nature of the echelle grating and reflection of strong lines off the optics of the spectrograph. These appeared as roughly horizontal or vertical streaks across the CCD, centered on strong emission lines, and can mimic or blend with real emission lines at the locations of the orders they intersect. Residual cosmic ray strikes were also identified and removed at this stage. Remaining line detections were confirmed by looking for evidence of true nebular origin, i.e. similar line morphology, exclusive filling of the nebular portion of the image slit, and repeated detection within orders with overlapping wavelength coverage. The statistics of the remaining lines detections, as a percentage of those retained versus the total number of lines detected 35 in particular S / N and FWHM bins suggest that lines with a S / N 2 7 were at the noise limit, and those above S/ N = 20 were clearly detected. Similarly, lines with F WHM in a range bounded by the instrumental resolution at it: 9 km sec‘1 and an upper 1 were considered probable detections when the same statistics limit of 50 km sec’ were considered. In general only line detections having a S / N Z 7 and with FWHM in the above range were retained as probable detections of genuine lines. However, exceptions were made for some line detections outside these limits, such as when the lines were clearly evident in the extracted spectra and in the 2-D image, or for line blends detected by the software as a single lines, but having FWHM that exceeded the upper bound. A portion of the full, long blue spectrum is depicted in Figure 2.6. In general, emis- sion line profiles fell into 3 categories: Gaussian, double peaked, or blends. Any line of sight penetrates through the nebula and intersects both the forward and backward edge of the expanding gas shell, as well any intervening more highly ionized region in between. The double peaks arise from the large change in the radial component of the expansion velocity between the front and back components of the shell (on the order of 12 km sec'1 for [N II] in IC 418, as determined by Acker et al. (1992), and quoted in Hyung, Aller, & Feibelman (1994) (hereafter HAF)). Thus double peaks generally denote a line originating from the outer, more rapidly expanding portion of the nebula. In contrast, a Gaussian line profile signifies confinement of its parent species to the slower moving inner regions of the nebula, where the differential ex- pansion velocity is either unresolved at our resolution or below the intrinsic profile FHWM of the emitting gas itself (about 20 km sec‘1 for hydrogen).

This demonstrates the differing profile morphologies exhibited by lines whose parents ions are of different ionization potentials. Higher ionization lines, such as [Ar III] A5191.8A on the left have more Gaussian-like profiles, while low ionization lines, such as the [N I] doublet on the right have double peaked Gaussian-like pro- files, as influenced by the differential expansion velocity of the nebula exceeding the thermally generated width of the line. take on a variety of appearances, depending upon the particular morphology, number, and difference in wavelength of its constituents. For every line detection made by RDGEN in the full, long spectra, deemed genuine by the above standards, a fit to the local continuum and line profile in the cor- responding long, cavity spectrum for the same instrumental set—up was made at the wavelength of the detection. For lines saturated in the long exposures (see Table 2.3), the fit was applied to the short, cavity spectrum. The fitting function was the combi- 37 Table 2.3 Lines saturated in the long spectra.

Such a function was fit to all lines regardless of a priori knowl- edge of actual line profile morphology, using a standard X2 minimization software routine, the details of which may be found in Appendix C. The wavelength measure in this case was the center of Gaussian function that best fit the line profile. In cases where the profiles were clearly non—Gaussian, the flux was calculated by fitting the local continuum with a low order polynomial around the line and simply summing the flux contained within the region where the line clearly extends beyond the con- tinuum. The wavelength measure here was the first moment of the line profile, the flux averaged wavelength over the entire line profile. Where line blends were clearly separable by multiple Gaussian, they were fitted using multiple Gaussian functions by the “d-d” (de-blend) option in the IRAF task splat. Otherwise the simple sum was retained. Night sky emission lines from the Earth’s atmosphere also appear in these spectra, particularly in the red spectrum. These lines are narrower than the PN lines in general, and have uniform surface brightness along the slit (see Figure 2.7). With the 38 Figure 2.7 A portion of the 2-D red spectrum which depicts an obvious night sky emission line near the center of the image. Note that it fills the entire slit rather than just the portion superimposed on the nebula, as the adjacent nebular line does. Both lines sit on the wing of the broad nebular emission line blend of O I A8446A on the left edge of the picture. From Osterbock et al. ( 1996) the night sky line is most likely 6-2 P2(3.5) A8452.250A, a vibration-rotational transition of the terestrial OH molecule, and has a FWHM of z 9 km s"1 which is the instrumental resolution. The adjacent nebular line we believe is He I A8451.158. aid of the Osterbrock (1996,1997) atlases of night sky lines, plus careful examination of the 2D images, it was possible to identify most of these and eliminate them from the line list. However a few such lines in blends may have survived this screening process. To account for differing photometric conditions on the observing nights, for er- rors in positioning the slit in exactly the same place between nights, and differences in the wavelength dispersion solutions used in the individual spectra, all line mea- 39 surements were normalized to a chosen fiducial, the long intermediate spectra. This was accomplished using the procedure described in Sect 2.3.2, and involved making comparisons between measurements for the same line present in the overlap regions between spectra. Similarly, the line measurements from the short exposure spectra were normalized to their longer exposure counterparts, by taking the average ratio of fluxes for ten well defined intermediate strength lines, measured in both the long and short exposure spectra. Scale factors of 0.900, 0.925, and 1.060, derived from the average ratio of the ten lines, were applied multiplicatively to the line measurements from the short exposures spectra of the blue, intermediate, and red, respectively, in order to align them with the fiducial. Finally, line measurements were considered arbitrarily to represent the same line if 1 . Only those measurements the difl'erence in wavelengths did not exceed 15 km sec’ possessing a S / N within a factor of two of the largest value, among all measurements considered to represent the same line, were included in the final sum. Also rejected were line measurements corresponding to line profiles with obviously poor morphol- ogy, such as those on the edges of orders, or in regions were the flux calibration was suspect, such as near strong absorption features in the standard stars. Line measure- ments meeting the above criteria were averaged together, with the largest S/ N among the group of measurements and its FWHM adopted as the S/ N and FWHM of the individual line. ' The wavelengths for all lines were corrected to the air wavelength in the nebular rest frame by using the median difference between the accepted and observed wave- lengths for 47 Balmer and Paschen lines (see Table 2.4).

Intervening nebular and interstellar dust act to preferentially scatter out the blue component of, or “redden”, the inbound flux. To correct for this effect, final line fluxes were de-reddened through the application of the reddening curve of Cardelli, Clayton, & Mathis (1989), with a standard RV value of 3.1. The de-reddened intensity of any emission line can be related to the de-reddened intensity of HB through the following relationship: 1A0 = Ammauoknnml (2.1) [H60 1H5 , where I A is the measured flux of a line, [AD the measured flux corrected for reddening, [H5 and [H50 the same for the H5, CH5 is the log extinction at HB, and the quantities f (A) and f (H6) are the relative extinction curve values of Cardelli, Clayton, & Mathis normalized to H6 at the wavelengths of the lines. The value for CH5 was established by comparing the final relative flux values between 20 pairs of Balmer and Paschen lines beginning from the same level. Since these lines arise from the same upper level, their relative intensities should be the simple ratio of the products of their Einstein transition coefficients and photon frequencies. Since the intrinsic intensity ratio is known, the equation: IP11,O _ {Fl—110CH3[f(P11)+f(H11)] (2.2) IHII,O [H11 , may be solved for cm for any pair of Paschen (P11) or Balmer (H11) lines.

This value exceeds the published values of 0.21 from HAF and 0.14 from HKB, but agrees well with the value of 0.34 determined by the Shaw & Dufour (1995) re-analysis of the HAF data, as well as with the value of 0.29 from Mendez (1989). It is likely that the amount of reddening varies with position in the nebula, so some variance in the coefficient is expected when comparing studies looking at different parts of the nebula. De-reddened using eq. 2.1 above and our determined extinction value at HB, the Balmer to Paschen line intensity ratios show a 6% scatter from the expected 43 values. 2.3 Error Analysis Here we assess the degree of uncertainty in the wavelength and flux measurements by studying the consistency, within and between each spectrum of repeated measures of the same lines in differing spectral orders and in spectra from different observational set-ups. In addition, we gauge the degree of accuracy of our reduction steps by comparing to theoretical values and previously observed values of the wavelength and flux for a selected group of lines. 2.3.1 Internal Agreement In Figure 2.8, the wavelength difference between the reddest and bluest individual measurements (in the sense of reddest minus bluest) of the same line measured from diflerent orders of the same echelle spectrum, are plotted against the minimal S/ N of those measures. Comparison against the minimal S/N, emphasizes the poorest quality measurements, such as those closest to the edges of spectral orders, where the S/ N is generally lower, profiles less distinct, and calibration generally the worst. Similarly, we plot the ratio of the fluxes of the reddest and bluest measurements for the same line. The 1 a scatter in the wavelength differences (in km sec‘1 ) and flux ratios, and the median values of all such measures in both parameters from different ranges of minimal S / N are compiled in Table 2.6. We include night sky line detections in the wavelength analysis that follows, but not in the flux analysis, since night sky 44 line intensities vary with time and position in the sky. The scatter in both wavelength and flux generally falls in all three spectra as one goes beyond the S/N=20 value established for lines “clearly separated” from the continuum. For higher S/N measurements, the median wavelength difference and the scatter about the average wavelength difference declines down to the level of the individual dispersion solution fits (about 0.5-1.0 km sec‘1 in the blue and intermedi- ate red, and 1.0-1.5 km sec’1 in the red). Flux agreement also improves across the S/N>20 threshold for all three spectra, again on a par with the 5% uncertainties in the individual sensitivity function fits used to flux calibrate the individual con- stituent spectra. If the five strongest lines with multiple measurements are chosen from each spectrum, the average velocity difference and ratio of flux between measures is 0.4:l:0.4 km sec"1 and 0.95:1:0.05, 0.23:1:0.08 km sec‘1 and 1.04:1:004, and 1.4:l:1.0 km sec"1 and 1.03:}:002 for the blue, intermediate, and red spectra respectively. The somewhat larger wavelength difference in the red arises directly from the larger resid- ual in the red dispersion solutions. An obvious small shift is seen upon inspection of their respective profiles, but is still well within the uncertainty expected from that source. It is also small compared with the instrumental resolution of 10 km sec‘l . The scatter in wavelength and flux ratio matches the expected uncertainty from cali- bration for line detections above S / N220, suggesting that errors from the calibration steps dominate the total error in the measured parameters for those detections. The increasing amount of scatter below the S/N=20 cutofl, indicates that measurement errors contribute dominate in weaker lines. Since these measurements are made at the edge of each echelle order and thus represet the worst case comparisons, we judged 45 w) L 4 r0 Bwe ‘ o — arr E 1 ‘.9 ‘ o :3 :9 ,0: s '0 ‘5 _ u: — IL <1 76 . >00 4 '0% 0 ° 0 4 o '4 0% O D_@.Q__o.__°_0 _____ _, L A111] 11; All 4 ‘ L 0 100 200 300 400 500 MhiRDCEN S/N u) POVYrVTjfiYtI'V"TTWV'IY‘rjfi I0 3 ‘ Inter ‘ th— — a)?“ \ b 4.9 E. :0 :2 E p 7 ’3‘ 2m? 0 1:: < r 1 .0 . o 4 o 0‘3 4 o o O gaomgo _______ Q__.___...

In Figure 2.9, the same flux ratios and wavelength differences are plotted as a function of wavelength for all three spectra, including only stronger (S / N 2 20) lines. This is done to look for any gross systemic errors in dispersion solutions or in the sensitivity functions that trend with wavelength (which acts as a proxy for position on the CCD). The general wavelength difference scatter does increase on the edges of all spectra. This is expected from the declining instrumental sensitivity at the edges of spectra, which makes line profiles less distinct, and measures from order to order less certain. Apart from the systemic trend in the red spectrum past 9400A, due to the previously mentioned deterioration of the dispersion solution fits in this undersampled region, no other apparent trends are evident. No evidence for a wavelength dependent flux ratio is present in any of the three spectra. 2.3.2 Systemic Disagreements Between Spectra Systemic differences between the three difl'erent instrumental setups are determined by comparing measurements for lines with at least one measurement in each overlap- ping spectrum which had suflicient S / N to be included in the final average values for that line.

The median values of the ratios and differences and the 10 scatter in those values about the mean for all such lines are listed in Table 2.6. The median wave- 1 was added to the blue measurements length difference of approximately 1.2 km sec— to bring the two spectra into alignment. Similarly, a scale factor of 1.138 was divided into every blue measurement to align the two spectra (we arbitrarily chose to use the intermediate spectra as the fiducial for both wavelength and flux). These corrections were applied to the blue measurements prior to collation of the measures to determine the line’s wavelength and flux. The asterisked rows in Table 2.6 show the significant improvement in the median value of wavelength difference and flux ratio with blue measurements corrected in this manner. The flux agreement seems tolerable, in light of the expected 5% errors in the flux calibration for each spectrum. Unfortunately, in the intermediate-red spectra overlap region, similar comparisons are difficult to interpret, because the size of the overlap was small, and due to the lack 50 of S / N _>_ 20 measurements in the portion of the intermediate spectrum correspoding to the overlap with the red. The scatter here is also expected to be somewhat larger given that more individual measurements can contribute to the final line attribute calculations, sometimes as many as four, two from each of the spectra. The results in Table 2.6 suggest that a small offset exists in wavelength between the intermediate and red spectra wavelength measurements. Because the overlap region covers only the extreme end of the intermediate spectrum and the beginning of the red spectrum, covering only about two orders in each setup, it was decided not to adjust all red values based upon results from one or two orders alone. The flux values show the same level of agreement, despite the small number and mostly lower S/ N measurements, as in the blue-intermediate region, again within the expected 5% flux calibrations errors from each spectrum. Increasing our confidence in the match between the red and intermediate measurements, is the agreement between the Balmer (from the blue) and Paschen (from the red) line wavelengths (Table 2.4), and the low scatter in the de-reddened fluxes (Table 2.5). Since the blue and intermediate measures are both fairly close, we infer that the intermediate and red measurements are within 95% or 1 better agreement in flux, and are apart by no more than 1 km sec“ in wavelength. 2.3.3 Obtaining a Total Error Estimate for Final Line Values Consistency has been shown both within and between the spectra, and a reasonable idea of what sources of error dominate particular classes of lines has been determined. Now we attempt to decouple the various sources of error to arrive at a crude estimate 51 LO LO ‘— I I I I r «— I I I T -1 l- 1 1 " I 4 4 1? E - ”a?

Wavelength Uncertainty One source of wavelength error is poorly defined line profiles, or measurements in the vicinity of scattered light features or flares, problems to which weak lines are more vulnerable. For lines below S / N<20, this measurement error dominates. To obtain a value for the likely error due to this eflect, we first plot the 10 scatter (in km sec“1 ) in the individual wavelength measurements for each particular line, for all measurements that went into calculating that line’s final wavelength, against the S/ N of those lines (left panel Figure 2.11). The average amount of that 10 scatter among those lines above and below the S/N=20 cutoff is then calculated. We make the assumption that these average values of individual measurement’s scatter are characteristic of the measurement errors for all lines within each S/ N regime even though, as has been shown, it is more likely the residuals in the wavelength calibration dominate for lines 52 with S/N> 20. To obtain an estimate of the error due to wavelength calibration problems alone, we plot the same 10 scatter in individual measurements as was done before, as a function of wavelength for only those lines with a S/N> 20 (right panel Figure 2.11). Then we calculate the average of the lascatter within 500A bins, and adopt this value as the error arising from the calibration steps for all lines with wavelengths within a specific bin. For the most part these values fall within the expected 0.5 — 1.5 km sec"1 errors in the dispersion solutions, and including this factor takes into account the deterioration of the dispersion solution in the red spectrum seen in Figure 2.9. Finally, to look for any absolute systemic bias in the final wavelength values, we determined the difference between the final values of wavelength (corrected to the rest frame of the nebula as established for ionized hydrogen) for several well known un-blended emission lines (Table 2.7) with indisputable identifications, against their accepted wavelengths as drawn from the NIST database 2. The results are shown in the upper panel of Figure 2.12. The lower panel of the same figure, shows the wavelength difference plotted as a function of the ionization potential of the lines’ parent ions. There is a definite trend towards a higher velocity difference for lower ionization potential ions. This might be reflective of a legitimate differential expansion velocity with ionization potential energy along our line of sight to the neubla, like that predicted by Gesicki, Acker, & Szczerba (1996) for IC 418. It might also simply indicate uncertainties in the accepted wavelengths (indicated by the error bars in the plot) or may be the result thtp: //physics.nist.gov/cgi-bin/AtData/linesiorm 53 Table 2.7 Wavelengths of strong lines, and ionization potentials of their parent ions.

As no particular source can be ruled out, we assume the worst, that the difference is purely due to the wavelength measurement technique, and adopt a value of 1.9 km sec"1 (indicated as a straight line in the upper panel of Figure 2.12), as a systemic wavelength uncertainty for all lines. An additional :l:0.9 km sec‘1 uncertainty can be added directly to this to represent an additional systemic error arising from the radial velocity correction (see Table 2.4) for a total of 2.8 km sec‘1 for all lines regardless of S/ N . The measurement and calibration errors could conceivably cancel out each other, but the 2.8 km sec‘1 total potential systemic error cannot be added in quadrature with the other errors. We express the total approximated uncertainty in line wave- lengths as: 0tot = V UM2 + 002 + 0’5, (2-3) Where OM is the error due to measurement problems, 00 is the error to wavelength calibration problems, and as is the 2.8 km sec“1 total systemic error described above. A summary of the components of the estimated total wavelength uncertainty is shown in Table 2.8. We compared this error, at“, calculated for each line, against the original 10 scat- ter shown among those individual measurement used to calculate that line’s wave- length, and adopted the greater of the two for the total wavelength uncertainty for that line. The error calculated in eq. 2.3 was adOpted for all lines with single con- tributing measurements. We believe this gives a reasonable upper limit to wavelength 56 Table 2.8 Estimated wavelength uncertainty budget for each line, depending upon it’s S / N and final wavelength.

See Table 2.5 57 uncertainty for each line. Flux Uncertainty Contributing to the uncertainty in flux measurements, are errors in the flux cal- ibration, systemic errors arising from the peculiarities of observing equipment and variability in observing conditions, and measurement errors due to poorly defined profiles of weak lines. The distinct contributions from these sources are difficult to de—correlate from one another. Comparisons between previously obtained flux standard star spectra, and spectra of those same stars calibrated in the same way as our object spectra, in all observing set-ups, show that over the majority of most orders, the flux calibration is better than 95% accurate (see for example Figure 2.5). However, on the edges of orders where the echelle blaze function rapidly falls off, the accuracy of the calibration declines. The accuracy also falls in the vicinity of places with problematic calibrations. Specific problems exist at wavelengths near the broad hydrogen absorption features in the standard stars. Nevertheless, since these locations also correspond to places where the S/ N is relatively smaller, and the locations in the nebular spectra corresponding to strong absorption lines in the standard stars were carefully screened, the influence of individual measurements from these locations is somewhat mitigated by our mea- surement selection criteria. Therefore, we simply adopt a value of 5% as the likely error due to errors in flux calibration. We tested for any bulk systemic errors by comparing observed, reddening cor- rected, line flux ratios with their theoretically calculated values for several un-blended, un-ambiguous, close pairs of lines, such as those used to calculate electron density. 58 UFlux (7°) —|og (lx/le) Figure 2.13 The percentage flux error (10 measurement scatter) as a function of -108(1(/\)/1(Hfi))- These pairs were chosen because of their large flux, the fact that their intrinsic flux ratios depend only upon atomic parameters (i.e. spontaneous transition coefficient and wavelengths), and their relative closeness in wavelength which minimize redden- ing correction problems. For the following pairs of lines: [Ne III] AA3869/396SA, [O 111] AA5007/4959A, [N II] AA6548/6583A, and [o 11] AA 6300/6363A, the theoretical ratios exceed the observed ratios by 1.4%. Such a small departure was judged not to be statistically significant. It is traditional in nebular astrophysics to estimate the errors attributable to measurement problems by determining the scatter in individual flux measurements for those lines having multiple individual contributing measurements, as a function of the fluxes of those lines. In Figure 2.13 we plot the measurement scatter (10) as a percentage of individual flux, against the log of the line fluxes normalized to 59 the de—reddened flux of H73. We then calculated the average scatter within decadal bins. We find that the average scatter plus systemic error for lines of flux I(A) to be: I(A)/I(HB) < 10‘4 = 20%, 10‘4 < I(A)/I(Hfi) < 10‘3 = 10%, and for all higher bins I(A)/I(HB) > 10‘3 = 5%, the level of the expected uncertainty in the flux calibration alone. While some individual lines exhibit a larger amount of scatter, the general level of uncertainty for the strongest lines compares quite favorably with those levels given by HAF, HKB, Baldwin et al. (2000), and Esteban et al. (1998), to which this work is compared. To obtain an estimate of the intrinsic uncertainty of the line flux measurements, we adopted the values determined for the measurement uncertainty above, and added in quadrature a potential 5% error due to flux calibration. This yields for lines of differing flux a AI of: I(A)/I(Hfi) < 10‘4 = 21%, 10‘4 < I(A)/I(Hfi) < 10‘3 = 11%, and for all higher bins I(A) /I(Hfl) > 10‘3 = 7%. In those cases where lines had higher flux measurement scatter than the value appropriate for its flux under this criteria, the actual measurement scatter was adopted as the flux uncertainty for that line. Lines fluxes may also be susceptible to uncertainty in the reddening correction. The flux of any reddening corrected line may be represented by the following equation: 10 = Iec”BD(’\), (2.4) where Io is the reddening-corrected flux, 1 the observed flux, CH5 the log extinction of H5, and D(A) = f (A) / In 10) the rescaled extinction function curve at wavelength A. Assuming that the reddening error is a systemic error, the flux of a reddening 60 corrected line and its error may be represented: I, = IeCHBDW, a], 31,, A10 — (BI) AI+ (aCHBACHB), = 1, [ATI- + 000mm,] , (2.5) where the Acme is the uncertainty in the log extinction at H5, CH5 listed in Table 2.5. 2.4 Comparisons With Other Spectra HAF and HKB have previously observed emission lines in IC 418. General compar- isons of our final flux values may be made to both studies in order to look for gross problems with the flux calibrations, even though their slits were positioned at difler- ent locations within the nebula. In Table 2.9, comparisons between fluxes are made between a wide variety of strong lines with un-ambiguous identifications from the three studies, where the columns (2),(3),(4) are the reddened line strengths, normal- ized to H6, for the lines listed in column (1). The ratio of each studies’ line strengths relative to each other follow in columns (5),(6), and (7). The spectra of HKB was of insufficient resolution to resolve many close line pairs (e.g. [O II] AA3737,3729A) and thus comparison are made between the sum of the flux in the pair, which is indicated by a dashed line in the row of the line with the redmost wavelength in the pair. The average of the ratios of intensities between each pair of studies is relatively constant around unity, even if the scatter about that average is fairly large. Some individual lines approach a factor of two difference in flux between studies (see for example the 61 Table 2.9 Comparisons lines (I 3,3 = 100). Line (Ion/A (73.))

Nev- ertheless, if there were any large overall systemic problem with the flux calibration, it might be expected that the average of the ratios would be further skewed in a par- ticular direction from unity. We concluded that the present survey’s flux calibration is at least as accurate as the previous surveys it is being compared against here. Comparisons can also be made to the between observed and theoretical ratio of lines whose relative fluxes depend either only on atomic parameters, as in the case of forbidden lines arising from the same upper level; or only weakly upon nebular physical conditions, such as recombination lines from the same ion. Theoretical ratios were calculated for the list from Table 2.7 and several other line pairs. The inputs included spontaneous transition coefficients and wavelengths drawn from the NIST database, line emisstivity ratios for H I recombination lines (Balmer and Paschen series) from Storey & Hummer (1995), typical IC 418 electron temperature (10000 K ) and density of 10000 cm'3 (HAF and here see Section 4.1.1), and the emissivity ratios of Brocklehurst (1972) for He I recombination lines. These flux ratios are compared to observed values from our data, HAF, and HKB in Table 2.10, where column (1) lists the line pair, (2) the theoretical ratio of the line strengths, and (3),(4),and (5) the observed flux ratios of these lines from this study, HAF, and HKB. As can be seen, good agreement between the theoretical and observed flux ratio values in this study and the close agreement with the observed ratios in the other studies suggest that the present survey’s flux calibration is at least as accurate as previous studies. HKB suggest that their strongest lines are in the neighborhood of 10% flux accuracy.

In summary, we have attempted to calculate and quantify the legitimate sources of error that could contribute to the final wavelength and flux values of each emission line. Our data set has been shown to be both internally consistent and comparable to previous data, with a reasonable degree of confidence. Adjustments have been made to remove systemic sources of error, whenever such adjustments did not introduce additional spurious noise. The remaining errors are most likely a product of the limitations of the instrumentation and reduction techniques, although we believe that their magnitude, approximately equivalent to other nebular abundance studies, should be sufficient for obtaining decent information regarding the physical attributes of IC 418. 64 Chapter 3 A Semi-Automated Emission Line Identifier - EMILI 3. 1 Introduction Deep, high-resolution emission spectra of planetary nebulae (PNe) and H 11 regions obtained with modern instrumentation (Esteban et al. 1999, Baldwin et al. 2000, and this study) reveal hundreds of emission lines, including numerous weak recombina- tion and collisionally excited lines, which have not been routinely identified. The traditional approach for identifying such lines is a manual one. For each observed line, an atlas of known lines is consulted, and candidate lines at about the observed wavelengths are then ruled either in or out on the basis of being from ions in plausible ionization states with plausibly high chemical abundances, on the presence or absence of other member of the same multiplet, and so forth. This procedure is extremely time consuming, demanding, and subject to observer bias. 65 EMILI, for Emission Line Identifier, is code designed to automate these steps, making use of a portion (3000-11000A) of a large atomic transition database (Atomic Line List v2.04, van Hoof 1999), which includes r4:200,000 transitions from all ele- ments Z s 30, from which more possible IDs than could reasonably be considered manually can be tested for suitability. To assist in the identification process, the code models nebular ionic abundances, adjusts for any ionization energy dependent wavelength shifts among the observed lines (nebular velocity structure), and makes order of magnitude estimates of each transition’s possible flux under assumed nebular physical conditions. The latter overcomes a limitation of spectral modeling in which exact atomic parameters, i.e. eflective recombination coefficients and collisional cross sections and strengths, need to be known, but are often in short supply. Likely iden- tifications are ranked, with the results presented in a straightforward manner to the end-user. We present here the basic framework by which EMILI makes its identifications, and provide comparisons between manually and EMILI- derived identifications for high resolution nebular spectra as a gauge of its accuracy.

Rate each transition’s likelihood of being the possible ID for a line, based upon the agreement between laboratory and observed wavelengths, the predicted strength of transition relative to all other possible IDs for that line, and re- sults of the multiplet check, to arrive at a rank-ordered set of possible IDs for presentation to the user. 3.3 Modeling the Nebula EMILI models the observed object as consisting of five distinct zones or bins, each representative of a different range of ionization potential energy. The bounds of each bin are listed in Table 3.1. EMILI utilizes the information provided in the Matched Line List to determine the properties of all transitions whose parent ions reside in one of those bins. Specifically, EMILI calculates a correction to the observed wavelength of each unidentified emission line, depending upon the parent ion for the transition 69 being tested as its possible ID, appropriate to that’s ion’s residence within one of the energy bins. EMILI also determines the parent ion’s abundance, based upon which bin it resides in. 3.3.1 Velocity Structure Modeling Baldwin et al. (2000) showed in their spectrum of the Orion Nebula that among their observed emission lines, the magnitude of the residual wavelength difference between the observed and laboratory values (after correction to the rest frame of the nebula) correlated with the ionization potential of the lines’ source ions. They attributed this to a foreground matter flow having a component parallel to the line of sight, with a differential flow velocity. PNe have been shown to have a radially differential expan- sion velocity (see for example Gesicki, Acker, & Szczerba (1996) for IC 418), with increasing velocity correlated with increasing distance away from the central star. As ionization stratification means higher ionization potential ions concentrated towards the central star, the result is to anti-correlate ionization potential with velocity. This effect, coupled with hypothetical flows and geometric effects, can produce a pattern of velocity residuals similar to that seen among the Orion emission lines. EMILI calculates a correction to be applied to the observed wavelength of any unidentified line, based upon the ionization potential of a possible ID transition’s parent ion. For each line listed in the Matched Line List, the bin to which its parent ion belongs is determined, and the velocity difference between the laboratory and 70 observed wavelength (Am), and Aobs respectively) is calculated according to the formula: (am where um, is the velocity difference in km sec‘1 for that transition and c the speed of light. For each bin the average um, is determined from all lines in the Matched Line List belonging to that bin, to arrive at a correction for all potential ID transitions whose parent ion falls within it. When a particular transition is being tested as a possible ID, the observed wavelength of the unidentified line is corrected to the “rest” wavelength of that transition (Am, according to the formula: hszm0+flfU, (33 where here um, is the average wavelength correction (in km sec‘1 ) for ions belonging to the bin in which the parent ion of the transition resides. The number and extent of these bins were established to match the ionization potentials of the ions producing the most well-observed nebular emission lines, in order to maximize the chance that each bin would be equally and adequately represented in constructing the velocity model. Matched Line List has no entry for a bin, the bin adopts the correction value of the nearest bin with a non-zero um. In Figure 3.3, the correction value, um for each bin for the present IC 418 dataset, as calculated by EMILI, is plotted, indicating that a real ionization energy dependent velocity field attributable to some source is evidenced in the line wavelengths. 71 ‘0 I I I I I For IC 418 Matched Line List to w 8 rt) L (I) \ E 35 3 N l.

The overall elemental abundances with respect to hydrogen are read in from the default solar (or user-supplied) abundance table, and are modified by ionization correction factors (ICFs). ICFs are calculated using the strengths of certain “signature” lines (again see Table 3.1) listed by the user in the Matched Line List. Each ICF value acts as the fraction of the total elemental abundance present in ions in each of the ionization energy bins. Multiplying the elemental abundance by a combination of these ICF values, as described below, yields 72 ionic abundances for all ions of that element present in the nebula. For the first ionization energy bin “A”, the code looks for strong, collisionally excited, forbidden transitions for neutral ions such as [C I] A8727A; or for strong, collisionally excited permitted resonance lines like the Na I AA5890,5896A and the Ca II H&K AA3934,3968A doublets. EMILI arbitrarily assigns a value for $4, the ICF for bin “A”, based on the flux, I ,\ / 1H3, of the strongest observed signature line listed in the Matched Line List for the bin. If the strongest line has a flux IA/IHB < 10‘4 then 17,; = 0.001; if 10‘4 S IA/Iug < 10“2 then 1174 = 0.01, and if 10'2 S [A/Ifig then 23.4 =2 0.1. A minimum value 27., = 0.001 is assigned if no lines are observed or included from bin “A” in the Matched Line List. In a similar manner, the code looks for lines belonging to ions with large (>100 eV) ionization potentials (the population of bin “E”). Depending upon the strength of the strongest signature line that is found for bin “E” in the Matched Line List, EMILI will assign a value: 173 = 10‘3 + IA/Infi, (3.3) where I ,\ / [H5 is the flux of that indicator line with respect to H5, up to a maximum 23E 2 0.5. Again, a minimum value of x3 = 0.001 is assumed if no lines are present from this bin in the Matched Line List. The ratio of ICFs for the “B” and “C” ionization bins is determined by the code by comparing the ratio of the observed fluxes with the theoretical value. The calculation uses a pair of particularly strong lines: H5 from bin “B”, and He I A5876A and A4471A from bin “C”. The theoretical ratio is related to the observed ratio of the 73 lines, IHe+ /IH5, by: I”... _ NH..N,a*;{j,A,,B ‘— 1 3.4 [He NpNea‘gfif A ”8+ ( ) where NH8+, Np, and N, are the densities of ionized helium, ionized hydrogen, and electrons respectively. The are” factors refer to the effective recombination coefficients for the transitions (cr‘lzifef.r for He I A5876 or A4471 etc...), and the A values are the wavelengths. Some fraction, 51:0, of the helium atoms along the line of sight are singly ionized, and similarly, a fraction, :63, of hydrogen atoms are also ionized. These are equivalent to the ICF values :33 and 2:0. Calling y the elemental abundance ratio between hydrogen and helium, and assuming completely ionized hydrogen in the ground state at the location of He++ production, the ratio of the fraction are to :33 may be expressed as: 5170 _ _1_IHe+ 02ft; /\He+ 5178 _ 11 1H6 /\H5 (12%. ' (3.5) We assume (Osterbrock 1989) an intrinsic intensity ratio of [15876 / 114471 2 2.76, and standard values for the eflective recombination coefficients for H5 , c135! , and for He I A4471, “144711 of 3.03 x 10“14 and 1.37 x 10"14 cm3 sec“1 respectively at an electron temperature of 10000K and density of 10000 cm‘3 (Osterbrock 1989). These values of the effective recombination coefficients vary less than an order of magnitude over all typical nebular temperatures and densities. The value of 230/233 is calculated from the intensity, with respect to H5 , of either He I line. For He I A5876: x—C 0.7415173, (3.6) 51313 y 1H5 74 and for He I A4471: £9 = 2.03124471 . (3.7) $3 y 1116 The average of the two :60 / :1: 3 ratios is used if both lines are observed and present in the Matched Line List. The ratio of the ICFs $0 to 3:0 is computed using the observed fluxes of the same two He I lines, and the observed flux of He II A4686A: f2 : ’\He+ aifiégs IA4686 (3 8) SEC ail)"; /\(4686) IHC+ , ' where the H e+ subscript refers to the use of one or the other of the He I lines. Using dig“ = 1.37 x 10‘13 cm3 sec”1 for the effective recombination coefficient of He II A4686A, and the same assumptions used in calculating :rC / 133, the ratio of 2:0 to me can be expressed in terms of the intensity ratios: I x—" = 0.11 “686 , (3.9) 113C IA5876 01‘: I £9 = 0.04 “686. (3.10) 1170 IA4471 The average arc/2:1) is used if both He I lines are observed and listed in the Matched Line List. The values for 23,, and 333 are then used with the ratios from eqs. 3.6-3.7 and eqs. 3.9-3.10, and all the ICF values normalized to sum to unity, providing a system of equations from which EMILI solves for .133, (cc, and 2:0. Where signature lines are not present in any bin “B”-” D”, EMILI assumes the following in its calculations for the remaining ICFs: 75 o If no signature lines are present in either bins “C” or “D”, the object is assumed to be of extremely low ionization, in which case most of the ions reside in bins “A” or “B”: are and :30 are assigned values of 0.001 and 2:3 assumes the remainder of unity after subtraction of all other ICFs. Alternatively, the object may instead be of extremely high ionization, with most of the ions in bin “E”, indicated by .735 assigned its maximum value. In this case 1:3 through 1:0 receive minimum values of 0.001. c If no signature lines are present in bin “D”, but bin “C” is p0pulated, it is assumed that the object is in fairly low ionization. In this case 330 takes a minimum value of 0.001, and x3 and are share the remaining portion of unity according to the value of ate/3:3. o If signature lines are present from all bins “B” -” D”, then the ionization is as- sumed to be moderate, and the values of $3, 3:0, and 3:0 split the remaining portion of unity (after subtraction of 117.4 and mg), with 2:3 and 2:0 getting the majority, and all factors proportioned according to the ratios of 330/233 and 30/303 1133 =(1—$A—$E)/(1+—+——), 5130 170 = 173—, $3 $1) 1131) = 5130—. 1130 0 Finally, if signature lines are absent from bin “B” but present in bins “C” and “D”, the object is considered to be highly ionized. Then 2:3 assumes a minimum 76 value of 0.001, and 2:0 and :60 share the remainder according to 1130/5150. It is important to note that while the ICFs act as percentages of a particular element present as a specific ion in the nebula, the sum of the products of the ICFs multiplied by the overall elemental abundance for each of its ions need not sum to the elemental abundance. This is the case where elements may have multiple ions within a particular ionization bin. The goal of these calculations are rough estimates of the ionic abundances only. To smooth out the abundance model, for ions with ionization potentials near the edges of the bins, and a next lower stage of ionization in a different bin, the average of the ICF values for those bins is multiplicatively applied to the overall elemental abundance. For example, O++ has an ionization potential of 54.94 eV, while O+ has an ionization potential of 35.12 eV. Since these energies lie within different bins the abundance of 0+2 is calculated as: = _(O). (3-11) since the ionization potential of singly and doubly ionized oxygen reside in bins “B” and “C” respectively; “O” is the elemental abundance with respect to hydrogen. If the ionization potentials for an ion and its predecessor are both in the same bin however, then just the ICF value for that bin is used. For example, the ionization energy of N +2 is 47.45 eV, and for N+ is 29.60 eV, both in bin “C”. Therefore, the abundance of N +2 is calculated by EMILI, from the elemental abundance of nitrogen, as: N+2 = :60 (N), (3.12) 77 For neutral ions, the “next lower” ionization bin is the lowest energy bin. Special cases are established for completely ionized hydrogen and helium: HJr = 2:3 and He+2 = :00. In this manner ionic abundances are calculated for all ions for which line information is stored in the line database. 3.4 Template Flux EMILI draws, from its transition database, dozens of transitions within a few mea- surement uncertainty sigma of each unidentified line in the Input Line List. For each of these possible IDs, EMILI calculates an expected strength, or template flux of the emission line produced by such a transition, under the user-specified nebular temper- ature and density conditions. Only the transitions producing the strongest predicted lines (those within 1/1000 of the strongest predicted transition among all possible IDs for that line) are retained for further analysis, on the assumption that these are the most likely to be observable. The template flux calculation is meant to be only an order of magnitude estimate of the relative flux (with respect to H5) that could be observed in such a line. It is not a calculation of absolute flux, something better accomplished by emission-line region spectral modeling codes such as CLOUDY (Ferland et al. 1998). In any event, an exact calculation of the absolute flux for every transition in the Atomic Line List v2.04 would fail due to lack of atomic parameters for all but a few ions. What the code does attempt, however, is to compare transitions by their relative strengths, calculated and normalized uniformly, so that we may judge those most likely to be the 78 correct identification because they are the strongest, relative to all other transitions in the unidentified line’s immediate vicinity. When calculating the template flux for a transition, EMILI assumes that a line arising from it may have contributions from both standard recombination and colli- sional excitation. Only H5, the line to which all template fluxes are normalized, is assumed to be entirely created by recombination-cascade. The template flux equa- tion, then, has two distinct components: collisional excitation and recombination excitation. The specified nebular temperature and density, the ionic abundances, and the attributes of the transition, determine their relative contributions. The template flux equation is based upon a few simplifying assumptions: 1. The nebula has a single electron temperature and density. This is appropriate, given the approximations made for atomic parameters, and the fact that such parameters are unlikely to vary by an order of magnitude except in the most extreme conditions. 2. In the collisional contribution, each ion is modeled as a two level atom, of mul- tiplicity unity on both levels. The upper level may be collisionally excited/de- excited. 3. Only direct recombination and cascade is assumed in the recombination contri- bution. No allowance is made for possible dielectronic recombination. 4. The vast majority of the parent ion of the transition is assumed to be in the ground state. No levels are considered to be meta-stable, to have sufliciently 79 small spontaneous emission coefficients to allow self-absorption, or resonance scattering. The collisional portion of the template flux equation is derived from the equation of statistical equilibrium for the collisionally-excitable upper level of an ion of interest with net nuclear charge Z. The intensity of a line arising from this level, I ,\, divided by an estimate of the intensity of H5, 1H5, can be shown to be equivalent to (Osterbrock 1989) 1*— ~ 10 x 1014NZ q” (313) [He 1 + Ne‘Izl/Am An approximate value of afiffif z 1.0 x 10‘14 cm3 sec“1 , the nearly constant eflective recombination coefficient for H5, has been used. N z is the overall ionic abundance with respect to hydrogen; Q12 and q21 are the rates of collisional excitation and de- excitation of the ground and excited states respectively, and A21 is the spontaneous emission coefficient of the transition. The rate of collisional de-excitation has the functional form: (3.14) where 012 a dimensionless collision strength for the transition, a factor arising from quantum mechanics that is defined as the overlap between the initial and final wave- functions of the excited electron. The collision strength generally has a value between 0.1 and 10 for a wide range of collisionally excited lines. Assuming a typical value of 1, and an average nebular temperature of 10000 K, q21 can be expressed as a simple constant equal to 10‘7 cm3 sec‘1 . 80 The collisional excitation rate is related to the de-excitation rate by the Boltzmann factor: ~ 1 3 —1 912 ~ 2421 exp (kT) cm s . (3.15) Z, the net nuclear charge, is included here to scale the collisional cross-section which enters into the derivation of the collisional excitation rate for non-hydrogenic ions. x is the energy difference between the ground and excited levels. Assuming that the main temperature dependence is in the exponential factor, and scaling the temperature to units of 104 K, T4 E T/104, q12 can be expressed simply as 71,2 x 1.0 x 10'7 Z exp(—0.8x/T4) cmas‘l. (3.16) Making these substitutions, the collisional portion of template flux equation yields: _Ii ___ 1 X 1.07sz exp(—O'8X/T4) 1H,, 1+ 1.0 x 10-7N..,/.421 ' (3.17) 1 , while For a typical allowed, electric dipole, recombination line, A21 z 1.0 x 107 sec— A21 z 100 sec‘1 for intercombination lines, and A21 z 1.0 x 10‘1 sec’1 for magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole forbidden lines. These values for A21 are substituted into the final form of the template flux collisional excitation contribution: IA 5 exp(-0.8x/T4) —— = 1.0 10 N Z . I... X Z 1+ 1.0 x 10-7N../A21 (3.18) The constant pre-factor is scaled down to yield better agreement with the observed strengths of actual well-known nebular lines. The pre—factor is further diluted by a factor of 10 for transitions arising from neutral ions to account for the greater difficulty in collisionally exciting such ions (in the absence of the Coulomb focusing effect induced by the net nuclear charge of a non-neutral ion). 81 For the recombination portion of the template flux we start with a generalized version of the effective recombination coefficient interpolation formula of Pequignot et al. (1991), who fitted effective recombination coefficients to numerous C,N,O ions’ levels. We divide this by the same approximate value of the effective recombination coefficient of H5 (afffif z 1.0 x 10’”) to yield: aeff T4 —0.7 ——z1 Z 1 .1 at? 0( + )((2+1)) ’ (3 9) where Z is the net nuclear charge, equal to the ionic charge used in Pequignot et al. (1991) minus one. To convert to an intensity ratio we must multiply through by a branching ratio and by the numeric ionic abundance with respect to hydrogen for the ion NZ“, where this ion is in the next higher stage than the one used in the collisional portion. Assuming recombination to a non-metastable level, the branching ratios take the form of 1421/ (1.0 x 107 sec“1 ) where the denominator is an order of magnitude estimate of the typical sum of spontaneous emission coefficients for all permitted transitions off the level, which will dominate the de-population of such a level. A21 is the order of magnitude estimate of the spontaneous emission coefficient for the various types of transitions defined earlier. After simplification we are left with: £— _ N A21 (Z+1)1'7 1H,. _ “11.0 x 106 T."-7 (3.20) We dilute the above equation by a factor of ten for electric dipole permitted transitions to again attempt to get better agreement with actually observed line strengths. For each transition being tested as a possible ID for a particular line in the Input Line List, a value for the template flux of that transition is calculated according to 82 the sum of eqs. 3.18 and 3.20. The template flux is then normalized by the calculated template flux for H5. 3.5 Multiplet Check An important component of EMILI is the automatic checking for additional lines belonging to the same multiplet as a predicted strong transition being tested as a potential ID for an unidentified observed line. Multiplet transitions are those that are between different pairs of j states in the same upper and lower levels. A typical multiplet, and all of its associated permitted transitions, is depicted in Figure 3.4. The validity of a particular transition as a potential ID is enhanced by evidence of other observed lines which could sensibly correspond to transitions from the same multiplet. Lines from the same multiplet of the same transition type (electric or magnetic dipole or quadrupole) should exhibit similar wavelength agreement between their matches in the Input Line List and the transition’s tabulated “laboratory” wave- lengths, since the parent ion is the same, and any errors in the laboratory wavelengths should presumably be of the same magnitude and direction given a common source of measurements. These lines should also have fluxes within an order of magnitude of each other: they should differ only by the product of the relative occupation of the relevant levels (roughly proportional to their statistical weights), and their Einstein spontaneous emission coefficients (generally also within an order of magnitude of each other).

The position of the energy levels is not to any scale. Fraction beside of the levels are the j total angular momentum values of the each of the upper and lower levels. The numbers indicate the transitions and their laboratory wavelengths. ratio of strengths of two typical recombination lines from the same multiplet can then be expressed approximately as: 5 ~ (2.71 +1)/11 ~—:—-—-——, 3.21 I. (2.2+1142 ( l where (2 jl +1) and (2 j2+1) are the statistical weights of the 3' states of the upper level of the multiplet from which the lines originate, and A1 and A2 are the spontaneous emission coefficients of the two transitions. For each surviving ID transition, EMILI searches for all multiplet transitions within the wavelength bounds of the Input Line List with upper and lower j val- ues , jzower and jam," respectively, which meet the criteria of jzower > jl’owe, — 1 and jumper > jam," — 1, where jLPPe, and flower are the values of the upper and lower states 84 of the transition being tested as an ID. As an example, in Figure 3.4, if the Fe II A7399.96A line was being tested as a possible ID, all those other transitions in the multiplet other than line “9”, A7700.58, would be searched for. This is done to avoid biasing the total detection statistics, by looking for lines that might be weaker than the transition being tested and potentially undetectable in the spectra because of their smaller statistical weights. Lines from a level with large j are usually strong given the large statistical weight, while transitions between low j states are generally weak (Williams, private communication). For the same reason, EMILI will draw only those lines of the same or stronger transition type, electric dipole, magnetic dipole, or electric quadrupole in order of decreasing strength, as the transition being tested. If testing a particular collisionally excited, magnetic dipole, transition, such as the nebular [O III] A4959A line, EMILI would not look for the A4923, electric quadrupole A j = 2 line arising in the same multiplet, because the quadrupole transition is ex- pected to be generally weaker. However if the A4923 line were being tested, the code would look for the A4959 line. In the list below 11 and A1 correspond to the observed intensity and wavelength of the candidate line EMILI is presently attempting to identify. A1 and jl are the spontaneous emission coefficient and j value of the upper level of the transition EMILI is testing as a possible ID to that un-identified line. 12 and A2 are the observed intensity and wavelength for another un-identified line from the Input Line List to which a transition of the same multiplet is thought to correspond. A2 and jg are this transition’s spontaneous emission coefficient and upper level j value. In this example the j values of the upper and lower levels of the “2” line satisfy the EMILI criteria 85 for potential detection in the nebula (i.e. jg 2 jl — 1 for both the upper and lower levels). To be accepted as a detected multiplet line, the following criteria must be satisfied: 1. F luz Criteria: If both transitions have A values in the transition database, then following eq. 3.21, 0.333 < . ‘- A2(2]2 +1.) 12 < 3, (3.22) must be true. If either or both A values are not known, then a somewhat looser tolerance is allowed: 1 0.1 < —’ < 10, (3.23) 12 If the transition being tested is of lower expected strength than the other multi- plet member, (because of weaker transition type), the upper bound is expanded and the lower bound is dropped when the A values don’t exist. — < 104, (3.24) or eq. 3.22 applies if the A values are known. This reduces the possibility of the code mistaking a much stronger line, relative to the line being ID’d, as a multiplet member. The generous limits are used to accommodate the possibility of errors in the flux measurements of either lines. 2. Wavelength Criteria: Since both lines belong to the same ion and multiplet, they each should arise from exactly the same region of the nebula. Thus, the differences between the observed wavelengths, after correction for the multi- plet’s ionic parentage, and the corresponding laboratory wavelengths of the 86 transitions, should be nearly the same, assuming that lines of similar strength have similar uncertainties in their wavelength measurements and laboratory- determined values. Velocity difl'erences, 111,2, are calculated from: A1 - Alab,1 /\2 - Alab,2 c———— ' - c————— ul = , 112 — , (3.25) A100,]. Alaba2 where Alab,1 and Alab,2 are the laboratory wavelengths of the multiplet transitions. In order for EMILI to accept the line “2” as a detected multiplet member the relative difference in velocities should satisfy: [01 — 112' _<_ 02 , (3.26) where 02 is the uncertainty in measured velocity of line “2” in units of km sec‘1 . If all the lines from a multiplet fall within the larger of the user-specified instru- mental resolution or natural line width, it is assumed that the lines are blended. A statistical weight-weighted average wavelength replaces the transition’s laboratory wavelength, all the multiplet lines are considered to form a single line at that wave- length, and the multiplet check is not carried out. Currently, EMILI carries out the multiplet check for only pure LS-coupled tran- sitions. Future incarnations of the code will include the check for transitions from the three other coupling schemes employed in constructing the current and other transition database. 87 3.6 Ranking the Transitions EMILI calculates an “Identification Index” or IDI value for each transition consid- ered as an ID for an observed line, assigning an integer value based upon a three part scheme outlined in Table 3.2. The scheme gives equal weight to the relative template fluxes for all possible IDs for a line, the degree of wavelength agreement, and the multiplet check results, to calculate a numeric “score” for each competing ID transition. The relative IDI values within a particular line can be used to judge the most likely ID, while the absolute values may be used to judge the quality of a particular ID. A lower value of IDI indicates a better identification. As an aid in visual inspection of the output, in addition to the numeric IDI value, EMILI assigns a alphabetic “rank”: “A”’, “B”, “C”, or “D” based upon the relative IDI values for all potential ID transitions within a particular line, with rank “A” being the “best” ID for that line, “B” the second best and so on, with ties in IDI value receiving equal ranks. 3.7 Output EMILI’s output consists of a large ASCII file (referred to as the Full Output List). The list begins with a header contains information about the run’s parameters, names of input and output files, the user-specified temperature, density and instrumental resolution, and the calculated velocity corrections, um, and ICF values (174 -zE). The header from the output for the EMILI run on the present IC 418 dataset is shown in Figure 3.5. 88 Table 3.2 The IDI assignment breakdown for a putative IDs for a given unidentified line. A lower IDI value means a better ID in general. 1.

(10) If additional multiplet lines are found by the code, they are listed along the same row in decreasing observed flux order. The velocity difference between the multiplet transition’s laboratory wavelength and the corrected, observed wavelength from its corresponding line are listed for each multiplet line found. Up to 91 three such lines at maximum are displayed. Additional marks in the individual line identification entries include a “+” be- fore column (1) which indicates that the laboratory wavelength is within 1.50 of the observed, corrected wavelength, where a is the observed wavelength’s measurement uncertainty. An “*” after column (3) indicates that all the lines from the multiplet were within the instrumental resolution or natural line width, and the listed wave- length is a statistical weight-weighted blend wavelength. A “8” in transition was not a pure LS coupling. The multiplet check is not currently carried out for such transitions, indicated by a “0/0” entry in column (8). Finally the last row in each identification, with a “>” preceding column (3) and a “<” in column (9), indicates the strongest predicted transition in the velocity region between the initial search ra- dius from the transition database, and twice that radius. This allows strong lines with poor theoretically calculated or laboratory observed wavelengths to be considered as possible ID. The multiplet check is carried out for these lines, but the transition is not ranked and no IDI value is calculated. EMILI suggests that for the weak line (3.3 x 10’5 times the flux of H5) whose EMILI output is depicted in Figure 3.6, N II A5179.52A is the most likely ID. This is based upon its relatively strong template flux, actually within an order of magnitude of the observed value, close wavelength agreement, post-velocity model correction, and the detection of a second line, out of a possible two, from the same multiplet. It is significant that this line, N II A5179A 3p 5?” - 3d 5F, must arise from di- electronic recombination, as it belongs to a multiplet with spin multiplicity of 5, a level incapable of being excited by standard one-body recombination between N ++ 92 and a free electron. Such a line, unusual among nebular lines, may not have even been considered as a possible ID using “conventional” manual identification procedures, nor have been included in a model spectrum. A second output file, called the Summary List, simply states the observed wave- length and all “A” rank EMILI identification for all unidentified lines. An example, generated by a run on the IC 418 dataset, may be seen in the EMILI User’s Manual (Appendix D) 3.8 Application to Other Spectra EMILI has been applied to several nebular spectra, including the Orion Nebula (Bald- win et al. 2000) and NGC 7027 (Walsh et al. 2001), in addition to the present dataset on IC 418. Manual IDs were available for the Orion and NGC 7027 datasets, which allowed a comparison with the IDs suggested by EMILI. Comparing EMILI primary rank “A” IDs against manual IDs in the two datasets (Tables 3.3 and 3.4) shows that at least 75% of the time, the EMILI primary ID corresponds to the manual ID. Including cases where EMILI secondary and tertiary IDs correspond to the manual IDs are included, the matching statistics improve to about 90% or better in both objects. In these examples where individual lines were listed with multiple IDs, the matches include only the highest ranked EMILI ID among those manual IDs. Running the present incarnation of EMILI with the IC 418 data of Hyung, Aller, & F iebelman (1994) (HAF) (at a Te 2 10000 and N8 = 11500), yields the results in Table 3.5, where EMILI IDs are compared to manual ones for lines in which HAF 93 Table 3.3 Manual IDs versus EMILI IDs for emission lines in the Orion Nebula as observed by Baldwin et a1. (2000). The second column lists the number of times within each EMILI rank, that a particular manual line identifications matched the EMILI identification of that rank for that line. The bottom row without a rank entry indicates the number of lines for which the manual ID was not ranked by EMILI, or for which the transition was not present in the EMILI transition database. The third column shows the percentage of all 388 lines that fall in each category. Rank N % A 329 85% B 34 9% C 12 3% D 5 1% 8 2% TOTAL 388 Table 3.4 The same as Table 3.3 for the spectrum of the PN N GC 7009 by Walsh et al. (2001). Rank N % A 258 73% B 31 9% C 23 7% D 7 2% 33 10% TOTAL 352 Table 3.5 The same as Table 3.3 for the spectrum of IC 418 as observed by HAF. These statistics include only lines assigned single distinct IDs by HAF. Rank N % A 178 88% B 4 2% C 5 2% D 0 0% 16 8% TOTAL 203 94 had a distinct single transition as an ID. Good agreement, on a par with the earlier works, is shown between the manual and EMILI-derived IDs. In addition, EMILI provides possible IDs for lines left unidentified in this work. For twenty or so lines, the transitions corresponding to the manual IDs could not be found in the EMILI transition database. In some of these cases HAF did not provide a corresponding multiplet member from which to confirm the wavelengths and transition types, nor did the listed wavelength match any nearby transition for the same ion and transition type in the database. If these lines are thrown out, the EMILI matching statistics improve to nearly 95% for primary rank “A” IDs against manual IDs. It should be noted that the manual IDs are unlikely always to be correct, so that some EMILI primary IDs may be better than their manual counterparts. 3.9 Application to Current Dataset A list of 805 probable nebular lines were submitted to EMILI for identification. For each line, the observed wavelength was assigned a measurement uncertainty based upon a statistical analysis of agreement between multiple measurements of the same line in differing orders and spectra, and agreement between the observed and labo- ratory wavelengths of several well know emission lines (see Sect 2.3.3). A subset of this list, including 40 emission lines with unambiguous identification and no obvious blending, were used by the code to establish the velocity model and ionic abundances in the manners described previously. The distribution of velocity corrections and ICF factors for each ionization energy bin are listed in the EMILI output header shown 95 in Figure 3.5. EMILI was run with T8210000 and ne=10000, composite values es- tablished from various forbidden line diagnostics (see Sect 4.1.1). The instrumental resolution was set to 10 km sec"1 . For each unidentified line, the code searched the transition database for all tran- sitions within 50, where a is the assigned wavelength measurement uncertainty, then computed template fluxes for emission lines corresponding to them. The multiplet check was carried out for the transitions with the strongest template fluxes in this region, and for the transition with the strongest template flux in the 5-100 halo re- gion. The boundary condition on the left hand side of eq. 3.22 was removed in an effort to improve multiplet member detection chances, but there appeared to be no significant difference in this regard in comparison with a previous run using both boundary conditions. Based upon the wavelength agreement between observed, corrected line wave- lengths and the laboratory wavelengths of potential ID transitions, the relative strength of their template fluxes, and the results of the multiplet check, an IDI value was calculated and a rank awarded to each possible ID for a particular observed line. A sample of the EMILI output for an individual line in this dataset may be found in Figure 3.6. The EMILI output was compared to the line identifications from high resolution PN and H II region spectra, including HAF (1C 418), Liu et al. (2000) (PN NGC 6153), Baldwin et al. (2000) (Orion Nebula), and Esteban et al. (1999) (H II region M8). The strongest recombination lines expected from a variety of ions were determined by referencing Williams (1995, and private communication), Liu et al. (2000), Moore 96 Table 3.6 Numbers and percentage of EMILI IDs chosen as final IDs for each EMILI IDI rank, out of the total number of IDs used from EMILI. The average, minmum, and maximum IDI values among IDs chosen within each rank are also listed. These numbers includes all transitions from lines thought to be blends, or which otherwise had multiple EMILI selected for them. “Total” equals the total number of EMILI IDs selected, not the number of individual emission lines. Rank N % Avg IDI Min IDI Max IDI A 543 67.5 2.7 0 7 B 91 11.3 5.1 2 9 C 56 7.0 6.3 2 >9 D 38 4.7 6.8 4 9 None 77 9.6 7.8 5 >9 TOTAL 805 (1945), and Osterbrock, Tran, & Veilleux (1992). These were used to establish likely upper flux limits for lines ID’d as belonging to those ions, and to judge the credibility of identifications made by EMILI of transition arising from ions of comparable and higher ionization potentials. Choices for individual line identifications were then made based upon the EMILI output, and the above information, and incorporated into the final line list (Appendix E). Table 3.6 lists the numbers of different EMILI ranked IDs which were chosen manually from the output as actual line IDs. Some lines had multiple IDs selected, where it was suspected that the line might be a blend of two or more individual transitions of similar strength, or where two or more IDs were thought to be equally likely. Table 3.6 includes every individually selected ID transition from these lines. On a whole, it appears that EMILI provided reliable IDs (confirmed primarily by previous literature or via the multiplet check) for about 69% (555 lines) of the total number of individual lines originally submitted for identification (805 lines). When 97 including cases where it was thought that EMILI provided at least a possible ID (624 lines) the estimated success rate rises to 78%. EMILI was unable to provide any convincing IDs for the remaining unidentified lines. However, a significant number of these lines, 250 or so, were found in the re- gion 86700-8800A. Some of these lines are fairly strong (> 10'4 H5) and inspection of the original 2-D images established that many are real, but obvious transitions responsible for them were apparently not included in the EMILI transition database. An inspection of Osterbrock, Tran, 86 Veilleux (1992) and the Kurucz atomic tran- sition database (Kurucz & Bell 1995) suggested that most of these lines correspond remarkably well to higher (n > 15) transitions from He I singlet and triplet states whose upper levels were not included in calculating the transitions in the Atomic Line List v2.04. Several Balmer and Paschen lines for transitions originating above n = 40, as well as for a handful of iron forbidden lines observed in the spectra, were also not present in the EMILI database. These identifications were made manually using information from the Kurucz database for the hydrogen lines; and Moore (1945) and the N IST database for the iron forbidden lines. These lists also provided quality identifications for a handful of additional lines in this region, with only a possible EMILI-provided ID. The remaining 120 unidentified lines had no EMILI IDs that were in any way distinguishable from each other in the EMILI output, or had IDs for ions thought not to be abundant enough to be able to produce lines of any observable strength. Many of them are on the extreme edges of the original 2-D spectra, where the signal-to-noise was not as good due to the declining illumination of the spectra at these locations. In 98 D»). 200 300 S / N Figure 3.7 The distribution of flux: —log(I(A)/I(H5)) versus S/N for remaining unidentified lines. Small triangles at S/N=150 indicate unidentified lines with in- determinate S/ N. addition, most of these lines were not observed in any of the comparison spectra we used to confirm our IDs. However, the distribution of the S/ N and observed fluxes of these lines, as seen in Figure 3.7, shows that some relatively strong lines remain un-identified. Many of these are probably real lines, although some of them may be scattered light artifacts, ghosts, cosmic rays, or night-sky lines that survived the various screening processes. 3.10 Future Directions of the Code The greatest limitation of the present code is the fact that there is no cross corre- lation between individual line identifications, beyond the multiplet check. For in- stance, there is no check to see if lines ID’d from a particular ion all exhibit the same wavelength agreement between observed and laboratory values, or all have the 99 same FWHM. Such a check could further enhance the believability of whole sets of identifications, and might reveal the existence of unresolved blends. Another limitation of the code is the confinement of the multiplet check to pure LS-coupled level transitions. The current incarnation of the code works extremely well isolating those lines that have pure LS coupling, but is incapable of defining what a multiplet is in the intermediate coupling schemes which apply to many nebular lines (especially to lines from levels with excited electrons of higher angular momentum quantum number 6 such as the strong 3d-4f lines of the abundant species O II and N II). It would be advantageous to include additional code making the multiplet check available for these important nebular lines. It is desirable that the template flux values more accurately reflect true observed line fluxes. The template flux equation makes no allowance for dielectronic recombina- tion, Bowen-like fluorescence, charge transfer, or continuum fluorescence by starlight from the central star. It addition, no provision is made for the difference in observed flux. between lines in the same multiplet, but of diflerent transition type. For in- stance, the [0 III] 3P0 - 1D2 A4923 transition (an electric quadrupole transition) has the same template flux as the [O III] 3P1 - 1D2 A4959 magnetic dipole transition, but is observed to be nearly four orders of magnitude stronger in our IC 418 spectrum. This occurs because the branching ratios and spontaneous emission coefficients of individual transitions are not incorporated into the collisional part of the template flux equation. Finally, the results obtained from using EMILI with PN spectra have shown that the code is somewhat too reliant on good wavelength agreement between the observed 100 and laboratory wavelengths of an observed line and that of its potential ID. This al- lows transitions of iron, nickel, and less abundant species to often times be ranked higher than other more obvious IDs, because of a coincidence of one of their innumer- able transitions with an observed wavelength. Furthermore, laboratory transitions, although called “laboratory”, are more often calculated from theoretical levels, rather than actually observed in an are or in some other fashion, and their wavelengths are sometimes not as accurately determined as the actual observed wavelengths of nebu- lar emission lines. A poignant example of this from the Atomic Line List v2.04 is the strong [Ne III] doublet AA3869,3968, with both lines’ laboratory wavelengths differing 1 more than twice the instrumental from their observed wavelengths by > 20 km sec‘ resolution. In future releases we will address these problems, by adding additional logic to further cross-correlate line identifications, to carry out the multiplet check for all transitions regardless of coupling scheme, and to improve the accuracy of the template flux equations with respect to actually observed relative line strengths. Furthermore, our wish is to eventually make the code iterative. For example, a user would interpret the output from an initial run and make decisions as to possible identifications for each of the lines. The user could then adjust nebular physical parameters or initial elemental abundances and re-run the code, using the chosen IDs from the previous run to re-calculate the velocity model and ionic abundances, and refine the quality of the line identifications. The detection of He I lines in our spectra which were not present in the transition database, as well as Balmer and Paschen lines above n = 40, demonstrates the need 101 to link, broader transition databases to the program. Presently, the Atomic Line List v2.04 is virtually meshed into the code, making updating to a more expansive database difficult. However, plans are in the works to incorporate its successor, the Atomic Line List v2.05, into EMILI. This line list expands the available ion list to Z S 36, and includes He I out to n = 50. Because of the similarity to the presently utilized transition database, its incorporation into EMILI should not require extraordinary effort. A longer-range goal is the establishment of an EMILI “standard” to which any transition database can be converted and utilized, and to allow multiple databases to be accessed simultaneously. Not only would this allow rapid upgradability, it would also allow EMILI to utilize transition lists more appropriate to specific classes of emission-line objects such as PN, quasars, or novae, or to incorporate molecular lines, or even to make EMILI applicable to stellar absorption spectra. 3.1 1 Conclusions We have presented a software package called EMILI, which is specifically designed to take advantage of the vast amount of information available in modern atomic transition databases, to aid in the identification of atomic emission lines in PN, H II regions, and other emission-line region objects. EMILI overcomes some limitations present in model spectra by using generic values of scarce atomic parameters. EMILI is a tool specifically tailored to PN and H II region emission line identification, by employing techniques to model the expansion velocity distribution along the line 102 of sight to a such an object, and to calculate rough ionic abundances. The code minimizes the observer bias that could go into the line identification by providing a uniform set of criteria by which individual potential identifications can be judged. The code automates a time consuming and tedious process. Finally EMILI provides good agreement between manual and code-derived IDs. We believe that EMILI is an invaluable tool for those studying emission line regions and their spectra, which should only improve with further work. The code is publically available at: www.pa.msu.edu/people/sharpee/emili.html 103 Chapter 4 Results 4. 1 Plasma Diagnostics 4.1.1 Temperature and Density Diagnostics Electron temperature and density estimates were established from the relative strengths of various collisionally excited lines in particular combinations (diagnos- tic line ratios). Tasks from the IRAF nebular package (Shaw & Dufour 1995), which solve the statistical equilibrium equations for the collisionally-excitable levels of the involved ions, using a five or greater level ion, were used along with the observed values of the diagnostic ratios to make the density and temperature determinations. We used the most recent version (2.0) of nebular. However, it was found that the default transition probabilities and collision strengths that came with the package produced unlikely results.

After considerable investigation, it was decided to go back to the original atomic parameters for most ions, which came from the sources that still are the most widely used.

These intersection points between diagnostics may also be directly inferred from the diagnostic diagram shown in Figure 4.1.

In the diagram “D” adjacent to the ion denotes a density diagnostic for that ion, while “T” denotes a temperature diagnostic. and densities. These errors may be overestimates, as the measurement scatter for all the diagnostic lines with repeated measurements was smaller than the tabulated error value. Since diagnostic ratios match lines of neighboring wavelength, the effects of flux calibration and reddening errors are minimized when their strengths are compared in ratio. As seen in the figure, nearly all the diagnostics seem to converge in the vicinity of 10000 cm‘3 and 9600 K (the average values excluding the [8 II] temperature, and [S II] and [Ar IV] densities). There is a general trend in increasing temperature with decreasing energy of ionization. This is in line with the notion of the general 107 hardening of the central star radiation with increasing distance from the central star, assuming that decreasing ionization potential energy also correlates with increasing distance from the star. The lower [0 III] (source ion 0”) temperature with respect to [0 II] value is also in line with the probable effects of efficient cooling by strong 0“2 IR fine structure lines, to which 0+ has no analog (Garnett 1992). The lower [S II] temp is a direct consequence of its pairing with the (probably saturated) [S 11] density diagnostic, and its curve does pass through the region where many of the other diagnostics intersect. The composite temperature from the diagnostics is about 1000 K less than that observed in Hyung, Aller, & Feibelman (1994) (HAF), but our data show greater internal consistency than the various temperature diagnostics calculated by HAF and Henry, Kwitter, & Bates (2000) (HKB) for IC 418. The [N I] and [S II] diagnostic ratios are most likely saturated: observed values place them at the high density limit of their theoretical intensity ratio versus density curves (Stanghellini & Kaler 1989). [In the high density limit the theoretical ratios become essentially constant with respect to density. Small observational errors in the observed ratio can lead to large uncertainties in the calculated densities. This is reflected in the tabulated null uncertainties recorded for the upper [N I] and [S II] uncertainties and their matched temperature diagnostic lower bound uncertain- ties. Interestingly, both HAF and HKB determined [S 11] densities, 5600 cm‘1 and 3300 cm‘3 respectively, that were much lower than the value determined here, and in the case of HAF, lower than those from any of their other observed density di- agnostics. However, a compilation of previous IC 418 [S 11] density determinations made by Stanghellini & Kaler show a wide range of observed values, 4300-25000 cm‘3. 108 Furthermore, Copetti & Writzl (2002) have shown that [S 11] densities are statisti- cally higher than [0 II] densities for the densest nebulae from a compendium of PN observations. The [Ar IV] density diagnostic, observed in IC418 for the first time here and the highest ionization diagnostic we observed, yields the lowest density value. This lends credence to the notion that these lines arise from the central cavity observed often in other PNe (Stanghellini & Kaler 1989). For IC 418, such a cavity has been previously conjectured to be of lower density then the surrounding nebular shell in order to explain the deficit of Ha emission observed spectra-photometrically in the central region of the nebula (Reay & Worswick 1979). However, the location of the slit (see Figure 2.1) doesn’t appear to correspond to the obvious visual location of the central cavity. The atomic data may also be incorrect for this ion; the use of the Ar+3 atomic parameters used presently in nebular (Kaufman & Sugar 1986) at the [0 III] temp of 8900 K, returns a somewhat higher value of 7800 cm'3, even though other diagnostic Show tighter agreement when the previous atomic data is used. Alternatively, these lines are also the weakest of our observed diagnostic lines with uncertainties which would bring it into alignment with the other diagnostics. However, since both diagnostic lines are distinct in profile and free of blending in our spectra, we assume that lower density is not an observational artifact. We conclude that the agreement among the diagnostics is very good. The dis- agreements are attributable to expected observational errors in the line intensities, real effects such as diagnostic line ratio saturation, or inaccuracies in atomic parame- ters, and a (probably) non-homogeneous, stratified ionization structure, even though 109 IC 418 appears to be a uncomplicated system. 4.1.2 Balmer Jump Temperature The difference in the continuum levels across the Balmer jump (at 364697131), com- pared to the strength of a Balmer line, may also be used to measure the nebular temperature. From the Milne relation, the emission coefficient of the continuum due to recombinations to the first excited state alone, jg, can be written as (Kwok 2000): , _ 2.16 x 10-38 NpNe 0.8761 4.1 .72 47f T43/2 8 a ( ) where all other symbols are defined as before. Dividing by the emission coefficient for H5, incorporating the weakly temperature dependent formula for agfln) from Pequignot et al. (1991) leaves 12. = C jug agg(T4)T43/2 ’ (4.2) where C is a constant. Since the intensity of a line is directly proportional to the integral of the emission coefficient along the line of sight, the observed intensity difference in the continuum across the jump divided by the observed H5 intensity can be equated to eq. 4.2, and the equation solved for temperature. To obtain the value of the jump, a linear least squares fit to the continuum ex- cluding obvious emission lines and scattered light features, was made blueward (3500- 364591) and redward (3775-4065A) of the discontinuity. The jump values was then determined by extrapolating the fits on both ends to the Balmer series-limit wave- length (364697A). These fits sampled wavelengths in overlapping orders twice. The 110 continuum values were weighted by the associated spectrum error array, and sub- jected to three cycles of sigma clipping to reduce the effects of remaining weak lines and artifacts within the fitted regions. The resulting fits are displayed in Figure 4.2. The He I recombination discontinuity at 3680A wasn’t accounted for as it wasn’t clearly evident in the spectrum. The redward fit value was then subtracted from the blueward fit value to yield a jump intensity. The jump intensity was then corrected for reddening, and divided by the dered- dened intensity of H5. The observed ratio was equated to eq. 4.2, and the relation solved for temperature. A temperature of 5300 Kzlz500 K was determined, where the error is derived from the formal errors in the fit coefficients and reddening correction, propagated through the temperature calculation. The region immediate redward of the jump was not originally included in the fit due to the confusion of the contin- uum level by crowded lines at the series limit, and an overlaying contribution to the continuum by a broad flare from the [0 II] /\/\3727,3729 doublet in an adjacent order. Carefully selecting only a narrow region of relatively flat continuum nearer to the jump than the previous fit (3673-3686A) yields a somewhat higher value of 6600 Ki600 K. The resultant temperatures agree with the standard observation of lower Balmer jump temperatures with respect to the forbidden line measures. This is attributed to recombination-derived temperatures giving a large weight to cooler regions where recombination is the most efficient, while collisionally excited line-derived tempera- tures tend to weight more strongly the warmer regions where collisional excitation is most efficient (Liu & Danziger 1993). However, as seen in Figure 4.2, scattered light 111 $828888va 838383 5o: 8 wow: mm? .8: ~58 8808.8: 3588 3 85888 d8“; one mo 86.383 E 08.8 23. . mecca mo Q88 5 mEoE 88 d8=_. 2: .«o 5883 38888“ 8 am a mm on: 85.8 2; . vm comm mo Q88 a 863 88 38% 2: 80¢ 83w 895888 05 mo 8&8 03.2 on... 58 am a 88088 8: $808.83 23m 23. d8?“ 23 mo panacea 855888 05 3 m5 o3... com: 85 .8: 18383 on... 3 83.388 £thme 8 mm Q83 one .202: 855888 05 88388 3 5 803 85 82mm: :5 $5538 £8: 82me $815 2: mo 388? 2: 8 888QO 0:3 BEL m6 oSwE 2323 8:. 89 89 8% 8% 88 88 SS 83 88 8% 8mm 83 112 N_oms xnu .0 I I I I I I l l I I I tl-Ol‘ 8; 033 0:3 0:3 artifacts, the inaccuracy of the scattered light correction, lingering intensity profiles inherited from the echelle blaze even after correction by quartz lamp division, and the weakness of the continuum level itself, all contribute to making this determination somewhat dubious. Finally, the choice of where to fit the continuum redward of the jump also plays a significant role in the determined temperature. A similar temperature calculation in the Paschen continuum is complicated by the presence of numerous broad and deep atmospheric absorption bands, which con- trive, along with the problems described above, to confuse the true continuum level. Therefore, this calculation was not carried out. 4.2 Abundances 4.2.1 Ionic Abundances from Collisionally Excited Lines We calculated abundances for C,N,O,Ne,S,Ar,and Cl ions, with respect to ionized hydrogen (NH/H1"), where is the ionization state of the particular ion, from the intensities of their collisionally excited lines, using the abundance and ionic tasks from the IRAF nebular package (Shaw & Dufour 1995). This task solves for the populations of the affected levels of these ion and returns an abundance, given the intensity or intensities of observed lines corresponding to transitions between these levels, and a temperature and density value. In the case where multiple lines from the same ion are observed, the task returns an abundance value that is average of the abundances determined from each transition, weighted by their relative intrinsic 113 strengths. The atomic information used in these tasks is derived from the references in Table 4.1. For each ion’s abundance calculation we used the temperature and density deter- mined from its forbidden line diagnostics (an “ion-specific” temperature and density), or those from the ion with the closest previous stage ionization potential. This ap- proach, in the absence of an explicit ionization model, is superior to using a single temperature and density: the different ionization zones in the gas are expected to have different temperatures due to differing cooling mechanisms (Garnett 1992) and characteristics of the local radiation field (Osterbrock 1989). Our observations sug- gest a real scatter in the nebular diagnostics that goes beyond observational errors, where the application of a single set of parameters could be un-physical. However, we also repeated our calculations using a single set of temperature and density values: 9600 K and 10000 cm”3 which represent an average of our diagnostics except those from the [S II] and [Ar IV] lines. This allows a direct comparison with the results of Liu et al. (2000) in NGC 6153, who employed a single set of temperature and density values for most of their own abundance calculations. Calculations were carried out for individual lines in ionic and for line groups and ionic averages in abundance. The matrix of results from various combinations of lines within each ion is listed in Table 4.3. The entry for each ion in this table concludes with the weighted average of the abundances from multiple collisional lines, calculated at the ion specific parameters, as determined by abundance. In general, the abundances of individual lines within an ion show as good or better internal agreement when calculated at the ion specific parameters, than they do when 114 the average temperature and density are used. This is not surprising since the same lines were employed to calculate the density and abundance in the first place. However for three ions, N+, 0+2, and S+2 an additional non-diagnostic collisional line yields an abundance that closely matches those calculated from the diagnostic lines. The large scatter in the Co/H+ ratio is the result of the A9824 line being on the extreme edge of the final order of the red spectrum, where the flux calibration is dubious. The calculated S+ abundances are probably overestimates, given the artificially low ion diagnostic temperature employed. The slightly better internal abundance agreement for this ion using the average as opposed to ion specific parameters, suggests that the S+ temperature is probably closer to those values determined from the other diagnostics coming from ions with similar ionization potential. We note that the auroral line [N 11] A5755, and the trans-auroral lines [0 II] AA7320,7330 do not exhibit a noticeable departure in abundance from the other lines from the same ion. It has been conjectured that these lines could have significant contributions to their strengths from recombination cascade, roughly proportional to the ionic abundances of their parent ions (Liu et al. 2000). Because these lines give similar abundances, and because the ionic abundances determined from the recom- bination lines of their parent ions are at least two orders of magnitude below their measured intensities, we don’t believe recombination plays a significant role in their excitation. We adopted for all ions the abundance determined from the weighted average of the ion’s diagnostic lines calculated at ion specific diagnostic parameters, except for C" and 8“, where we used the [C I] A8728 abundance and the weighted value 115 at the average nebular diagnostic parameters, respectively. Temperature uncertainty dominates collisional abundances determinations, incorporating the uncertainties in the intensities of the individual diagnostic lines. We determined the uncertainties in collisional abundances by taking the extreme temperature and densities values, determining the abundances again, then using the extremes in the abundances as the uncertainty limits of the abundance. For ions of particular interest (those with directly comparable recombination lines) the final abundances and their uncertainties are: N+/H+ 4.124(+3.204, —0.556) x 10-5, o+/H+ = 1.663(+19.687, —1-308) >< 104’ 0+2/H+ = 1.201(+0.188, —0-142) >< 10”, Ne+2/H+ = 4.344(+0.761, —0.616) x 10-6. The larger relative uncertainty in the O+/H+ value is due to the large temperature errors from the [0 II] temperature diagnostic ratio. These propagate into large errors in abundance when those errors are calculated using the method described above. However, given the relative agreement of the [0 II] diagnostic temperature with other temperature diagnostics of similar ionization potential, and the realistic trend in temperature with ionization potential among the diagnostics (see Figure 4.1), the actual uncertainty in the [0 II] temperature is probably smaller than than our best determination of the formal error from line intensities and the reddening correction. Thus, while we quote here and will continue to quote the formal error in the O+ abundance as a manner of form, we believe it to be too large. 116 117 88 A1 88 888884.884 88 a; 88 588.88? 28 cl 88 ~82 8.8.8 cl 83 888 88 3.: 83 88 88.8 3...: 88 28.2: 88 :80:88 888 3:0: +820 88 cl ”8.3 882.882.888.882 3; 88 :l 83 88.88?

The abundance of a particular ionic species of ionization state i with respect to ionized hydrogen (N H / H+), as determined from a specific recombination line of that ion, can be expressed as: _A: _ AHB aeff(AiTe)_I; H+ MA) awe) IHB’ (4.3) where A is the air wavelength of the recombination line, AM is the air wavelength of the H8 line (4861325150, as” (A, Tc) and dig are the weakly temperature dependent effective recombination coefficients of the ionic transition corresponding to the line and H8 respectively, and I ,\ / 1H5 is the de-reddened intensity of the line with respect to H5. We used the emissivity interpolation formula of Aller (1984) to calculate 0:35], as this was the formula employed by the IRAF tasks nebular and ionic which were used to calculate the ionic abundances from collisionally excited lines. Table 4.4 lists the references for the atomic data we used in our recombination line abundance calculations. Most of the references do not list values for effective recombination coefficients for individual transitions, only for the entire multiplet to which a transition belongs. The multiplet values must be multiplied by a branching ratio to get an individual transition’s effective recombination coefficient. This ratio accounts for the likely population among the multiplet’s fine-structure states and the relative contribution of each multiplet transition to the multiplet’s total intrinsic 120 intensity. To obtain unknown branching ratios, we adopted a technique described in the NIST database 1. The branching ratio, B, for a particular transition is derived from the ratio of its atomic parameters to those from all transitions in the multiplet: 2(j+1)AA B = , Z: 20:“ + 1)Ai)\i (4.4) where A is the spontaneous emission coefficient for the transition of interest, 2( j + 1) is the statistical weight of the level from which the transition originates within the multiplet, and A is the air wavelength of the transition. The denominator is the same for all z' permitted transitions of the multiplet. The above scheme assumes that all levels in the multiplet are populated according to the their relative statistical weights, a common assumption for all but metastable levels. Eq. 4.4 assumes that all transitions follow LS coupling selection rules, which falls short for transitions from levels generated by a valance orbital of angular mo- mentum quantum number 8 > 2 (i.e. 3d-4f transitions in N+2,O+2, and Ne”). Calculations were carried out for the following opacity cases for which atomic data was available.

For each ionic abundance calculation, the ion specific temperature or that from a ion with a similar ionization potential, as determined from the diagnostic line ratios, was utilized. Table 4.5 lists the temperatures used for each ion. The same temper- 122 Table 4.5 Temperatures used for recombination line abundance calculations.

Recombination line abundances are mostly insensitive to density and all calculations were carried out using the mean density of 10000 cm“3. Within each multiplet of an ion, abundances from individual lines, as well as a complete “summed” multiplet abundance, were calculated. In the summed multiplet abundance, the numerator of eq. 4.4 is replaced with the sum of the atomic parameters for all lines observed from the same multiplet, and the intensity used in eq. 4.3 is the sum of their observed intensities. This approach is superior to averaging individual line abundances, because large deviations arising from poorly observed individual lines are smoothed out. In the following abundance tables, summed multiplet abundances are referred to as “Sum”, while a colon after the intensities of lines indicate that the line intensity is suspect, due to poor measurement, uncertain identification, or suspected blending. Multiplets with at least two lines observed and included, will have a summed abundance, set off by bold typeface. Finally, for recombination lines the main source of error is the uncertainty in the intensity measurement. Abundance is linearly proportion to intensity, as seen in 123 eq. 4.3, so the errors in abundance may be determined directly from the intensity errors for individual lines. Calculating a summed multiplet abundance reduces the influence of intensity uncertainties. He+ /H+ and He+2 /H+ We follow Liu et al. (2000) in obtaining the He“L abundance from the arithmetic aver- age of the He+/H+ values determined from He I A4471, A5876, and A6678, weighting by their rough intrinsic uncertainty ratio, 1:3:1, respectively. Prior to the abundance calculations, the line intensities were corrected for electron collisional excitations from the He" 25 3S metastable level. These excitations alter the populations of the lines’ origin levels, according to the formalism of Kingdon & Ferland (1995b) at the mean temperature and density (9600K and 10000 cm'3). The emissivities2 and intrinsic intensity ratios of Smits (1996) tabulated at 10000K and 10000 cm"3, the closest to our mean diagnostic temperature and density, were used to make the abundance calculations for the individual lines. Emissivities were only available for hydrogen case A for the He I triplet lines AA4471,5876, while both case A and B were used for A6678. The resultant abundances are listed in Table 4.6. The line abundances show a systematic increase with wavelength which could be indicative of an error in the reddening correction, or an effect of the flux calibra- tion disagreement between the blue (A4471) and intermediate spectra (A5876,6678). Corrections for the collisional excitation from the 28 3S level are sizable: 5% for AA4471,6678 and 11% for A5876. However, the disagreement only gets worse if these 2Ernissivity E hc/A x ae”(/\, Te) 124 Table 4.6 Recombination line He’r/H+ abundances.

Examining Smits (1996) Table 4 shows that for two surveyed PN, the ratio of observed to theoretically calculated flux of A6678 is consistently less than 1.0, while the same ratio for A4471 was unity. Decreasing the emissivity of A6678 with respect to A4471 would bring the A6678 abundance in closer agreement with the A4471 value. However, A5876 shows a neutral or opposite trend in those same PNe, and Liu et al. (2000) found the opposite trend from ours in their A6678 abundance. Alternatively, since the emissivity ratios of AA5876,6678 to A4471 decrease with temperature, a lower temperature could also bring their abundances into alignment. Using Smits (1996) at 5000K and 10000 cm“3 reduces the scatter in the line abun- dances from 12% to about 3%, and simultaneously removes the wavelength trend. The line abundances also decline 5, 6, and 13%, for A4471, A5876, and A6678 respectively, from their higher temperature values. This suggests that the He+ ion is more accu- rately described by a temperature characterizing a larger portion of the nebula, such as the Balmer jump temperature, than by temperatures determined from relatively 125 smaller zones. For the final He+ abundance, we adopted the 9600K case B average, which uses the case A AA4471,5876 and case B A6678 abundances. We caution, however, that the actual abundance may likely be somewhat smaller, for the reason described above. Errors in reddening, the collisional excitation correction, and the flux calibration, may also play a role. Our deep spectra exhibit a rich He I recombination spectrum, with some triplet sequences observable out to principal quantum number n = 27. However, no observ— able He II lines, even the intrinsically strongest A4686 line, were observed by us or by Hyung, Aller, & Feibelman (1994) (HAF). Interestingly, three of the remaining un- identified lines in our IC 418 line list correspond in wavelength to He II recombination lines identified in N GC 6153 by Liu et al. (2000). However the lack of an observable A4686 line suggest that these are probably just a coincidence. We conclude that the value of He+2/H+ is probably negligible. C+/H+ N o C I recombination lines were observed in IC 418 by HAF. This is probably because the expected strongest C I multiplets are either located in the near-IR (multiplet 1 at @10695A) and beyond their wavelength coverage, or correspond to possibly optically thick resonance lines in the UV (Pequignot et a1. 1991). We observe only one C I line with a credible ID, A9094.830 (S/ N = 127.4, FWHM=80.8 km sec"l , flux=0.0103) from multiplet 3. According to eq. 4.4, this transition has the highest branching ratio among all transitions of the multiplet, so 126 its appearance, coupled with the reasonably large multiplet effective recombination coefficient, appears genuine. Other transitions of this multiplet have branching ratios a factor of four lower, so their absence among our detected lines is not necessarily significant. Using the effective recombination coefficient for the multiplet from Pequignot et al. (1991), the ionic abundances are C"/H+ = 2.274 x10"4 and C+/H+ = 0.673X10‘4 for cases A and B respectively. Given that the resonance C I recombination lines3 in the UV were not detected by HAF or Henry, Kwitter, & Bates (2000) (HKB) in their UV surveys of IC 418, we assume that case B prevails for this ion and adopt the A9094.830 abundance for this case as the ionic abundance. Additional C I recombination lines were identified in the vicinity of 6000-6020A. Examination of the spectrum show that most are probably real lines. Effective re- combination coefficients for their multiplets are available only for case B in Escalante & Victor (1990). Abundances calculations from un-blended lines are two orders of magnitude greater than for the A9094.380 line. The lines seem inordinately strong if they are true C I recombination lines. The line ID’d as C I A5990.980 3p 3D - 5d 3D° could conceivably be pumped from the ground state by starlight fluorescence or a unknown Bowen-like mechanism. However, the line ID’d as C I A6019.890 3D - 5d 3F" is unlikely to be pumped, given its large angular momentum difference with the ground 2522p2 3P. The more likely explanation is that these lines are mis-identified, and we do not use them to calculate abundances. 3Resonance lines are transitions from the ground state directly to an excited level. Most often the lines leading to levels from which permitted transitions can occur are in the UV. 127 C+2/H+ Many strong C II recombination line multiplets are observed in our spectra. How- ever, effective recombination coefficients are available only for doublets. Calculated individual line and summed multiplet abundance values for our observed doublets are listed in Table 4.7. Multiplets 3 and 6 are in excellent agreement. The latter includes the A4267 lines often used to determine ionic abundance due to their strength and lack of con- tributions from continuum fluorescence and dielectronic recombination. Since it is also case-insensitive, a comparison with the extremely case-sensitive multiplet 3 lines argues that case B prevails for the ion. The overabundance in multiplets 2, 4, and 5, with respect to A4267 is probably not due to incorrect atomic parameters, since the same reference was used by Liu et al. (2000) and their results show much better agreement than that seen here. Enhanced dielectronic recombination is also probably not to blame, as effective recombination coefficients (Davey et a1. 2000) exceed by at least two orders of magnitude coefficients measuring dielectronic recombination alone (Nussbaumer & Storey 1984) for all the upper levels of the multiplets considered here. Grandi (1976) has shown that continuum fluorescence by starlight in the Orion Nebula is extremely important in feeding the levels from which many of the lines observed here. Continuum fluorescence from the the 2p 2P0 ground state of C+ by central star radiation can populate higher 2S and 2P terms directly (e.g. the upper levels of multiplets 3 and 4), or indirectly following cascades from those levels (mul- 128 tiplets 2 and 5). The sense of the abundance enhancements observed here suggest a similar mechanism here: lines from levels that could be directly populated by this mechanism show strongly enhanced intensities, whereas lines from levels one step down the cascade chain show lesser degrees of enhancement. Angular momentum states further removed from the ground state (the upper level of multiplet 6) are affected much less, as enhanced populations are diluted by longer cascade changes distributing the excess. The close agreement between multiplets 3 and 6 suggest that the population of the upper level of multiplet 3 is dominated by contributions follow- ing strong A4267, fluorescence-immune emission, despite the fact that the upper level of multiplet 3 can also be directly populated by continuum fluorescence. There are flaws to the above argument. Recombination occurs at the boundary between the C+ and C+2 zones in the nebula, whereas continuum emission should take place only where C+ is most abundant. These locations should have different physical conditions, temperatures and expansion velocities, which should affect the line profiles and their FWHM. However we note no difference in FWHM between lines enhanced by or immune to this mechanism. We will examine the actual line profiles in § 4.3.1. Also, a large population of C+ is not suggested by the strength or number of observed C I recombination lines, although the strongest C I multiplets are outside our observing bandwidth. Finally resonance transitions for these levels are all blueward of the Lyman limit. If fluorescence fuels these lines, significant C+ should exist behind the ionization front, where such lines are not optically thick due to ionizing hydrogen. Nevertheless, we follow Liu et al. (2000) in simply using the case B A4267 abun- 129 dance as the final C‘Lz/H+ value. Our deep spectra allow the observation of high excitation C II recombination lines, whose intensities can be predicted using this abundance and recombination theory. The resulting calculated intensities (Table 4.8) show excellent agreement. A number of quintet multiplets and C+ 232p (3P0) n6 series lines are present in our spectrum (see § refdielec). The former are most likely created by dielectronic recombination, since the alternative: recombination directly onto the C+2 232p (3P0) state, is unlikely given significant populations of this level are not expected at nebular temperatures (Davey et al. 2000). The quartet lines are generally less intense, by an order of magnitude or more, than their singly excited doublet counterparts. Since, they are weak, and because interactions with doublets may only proceed via inter- combination lines which are not seen in our spectra, we don’t believe they contribute significantly to level populations in the doublet states. The good agreement between predicted and observed intensities of several higher excitation lines, suggests that we are safe using the A4267 abundance as the final value for this ion. 130 .Emgm mwufl 13838:: mfi m ESSGE 538:8 ~36wa H 82 8:58: 13 8358380 3V 8an 138:: an 8m 3 mmmd Hand Nabmd fiwm odmm Hofiswmv Em..mwfi..8o.$mv is a. - 9.

(1991). The calculated abundances, listed in Table 4.9, scatter considerably both among the multiplets, and within the individual lines comprising the multiplets. Multiplet 1 is case-insensitive, but the derived abundances from other multiplets do not show better agreement under either case. Grandi (1975a) predicted that the 3d 4P and 45 4P levels are strongly enhanced by continuum fluorescence from the ground 2p3 48" ground state through particu- larly strong resonance transitions in the UV near or redward of the Lyman limit. Subsequent cascades in the IR from these terms can then feed the upper levels of multiplets 1, 2, and 3, leading to an enhancement of their line strengths. Our ob- served intensities concur with this scenario. The upper level of multiplet 19, 3d 4D, is also connected to the ground state, albeit by a multiplet of strictly LS-forbidden UV transition around A953A, and is also possibly excited by continuum fluorescence since its energy is close to the 3d 4P term. The lower transition probability (a.k.a. 132 lower stimulated absorption coefficient) in the 3d 4D resonance lines, about a factor of ten less than the resonance lines feeding the 3d 4P and 48 4P levels, is probably compensated for in the multiplet 19 line strengths, because those lines arise directly from the excited level, as opposed to falling through a cascade chain to the origin levels of multiplets 1, 2, and 3. It is obvious that the individual lines within the multiplets are not populated according to _LS coupling, given their large scatter; Esteban et al. (1999) reached a similar conclusion for the N I lines of the Orion Nebula. The lack of an exact estimate of the continuum fluorescence contribution to the line strengths (for which an explicit radiation model of the nebula is necessary), suggests that abundances determined from this ion are not reliable. We assume that the lowest summed multiplet abun- dance is most likely the closest to the actual abundance due to recombination alone, and take it as an “upper” limit for comparison purposes with the collisionally excited lines. The profiles of these lines should provide an important test of where the lines arise within the nebula. If continuum fluorescence dominates these lines, they should have identical profiles and FWHM to collisionally excited [N II] ”6548,6583.

Blend with 0 II A8188.520? High FWHM, Blend? 134 N+2/H+ We observed numerous N II recombination lines, including lines from ten triplets, a singlet line, and numerous 3d-4f transition lines. For the singlet and triplets’ lines, ef- fective recombination coefficients were available from both Escalante & Victor (1990) (EV) and more recently from Kisielius & Storey (2002) (KS). However, effective re- combination coefficients for the 3d-4f transition were not published by KS due to de- partures from LS coupling. Instead we worked backwards from the results of Liu et al. (2000) to obtain coefficients for individual lines, for a temperature of 9100 K . Using these coefficients at our assigned N+2 temperature of 9000 K increases the abundance artificially by 1-2%. A density of 10000 cm“3 was used with the KS fitting function for the coefficients. Abundances were calculated under both opacity cases, where the relevant atomic data was available. The results are listed in Table 4.10. For nearly all the triplets, the KS values, resulted in lower abundances, than those calculated using EV values. The general scatter does not favor either opacity case A or B, though the case B values yield more realistic abundances. Comparing summed multiplet abundances for triplets, our abundances show a larger scatter (a: 38%) than the Liu et al. (2000) abundances (022970) for multiplets observed in common (3, 5, 20, 28), calculated using EV case B coefficients. Our abundances calculated using KS case B coefficients have less scatter (a=25%). We therefore adopt for all triplets the KS derived case B abundances, acknowledging that not all multiplets may adhere to it strictly. For the lone singlet line observed, A4437.030 3p 1P - 3d 1D", the EV coefficient greatly exceeded the KS value, resulting in a higher abundance. 135 We arbitrarily chose to use the case A EV values, as was done for singlets in Liu et al. (2000). A second ID’d N II singlet line, A6610.560 (3p 1D - 3d 1F"), yields an abundance 5 times higher than for A4447.030 under case A EV, and is likely a mis-identification. The overabundance exhibited by multiplet 30 could be explained by a highly efficient Bowen-like fluorescence arising from the near coincidence between the He I ls2 1S - 1s8p1P° A505.68A line and the resonance transition N II 2p 3P - 4s 3P")\508.608A from the ground state (Grandi 1976). Given the 3A wavelength difference, however, it seems unlikely that this mechanism will work here, and it is more likely that the level is pumped via continuum fluorescence. Liu et al. (2002) reached the same conclusion based on the greater relative strength of the 3s-3p and 3p-3d lines compared to the 3p—4s lines of this multiplet in several of their PNe spectra. However, our observations show that the lines are of nearly comparable strength. We conclude only that some sort of ground state fluorescence is exciting this level, whether Bowen, continuum, or a combination of the two. Transitions in the cascade path are similarly enhanced (multiplets 3 and 5). Grandi (1976) also suggests that the intensity of multiplet 20 can be explained by a combination of continuum fluorescence through the resonance transition to the 3d 3D" level, and standard recombination-cascade from levels above. Since multiplet 28 shares the same upper level, presumably it too can be enhanced. Resonance transi- tions also connect the ground state with the 3d 3P0 state, which in turn can enhance the strengths of multiplets 21, 24, and 29. Only multiplet 36 is probably not en- hanced, since no resonance transition exists to its upper 4p 3D level, and because it 136 is far removed any of the previously described cascade paths. It is not surprising that this multiplet, apart from the 3d-4f states, yields the smallest abundance. For the 3d-4f transitions, the abundances were smaller still. This isn’t necessarily due to measurement error from the weakness of the 3d-4f lines, since the abundance from the 3d-4f A4447.030 line, which has a strength comparable to some of the 3-3 transition lines, exhibits yields a small abundance. The general decrease in abundance with increasing level energy or multiplet number might naively suggest the importance of the continuum fluorescence in the exciting the lower levels of the ion. However, the true explanation is unclear. The effective recombination coefficients may also be in error, being inferred from other data rather than drawn from a tabulated source. For these reasons we did not include these transitions in the final ionic abundance. We confirm the observations of Esteban et al. (1999) in the Orion Nebula: multi- plets 3 and 5 abundances agree well, “middle” multiplets 20, 24, and 28 less well, but multiplets 30 and 36 again agree well. It is unclear why the middle four 3d multiplets, show such large scatter, and why the agreement gets better again for levels of still higher energy. The 3d multiplets’ fine—structure states are apparently not p0pulated according to relative statistical weights. If the problem were due to continuum or Bowen-like fluorescence, it seems odd that multiplet 30, the upper level of which can be excited by either process, shows relatively good agreement. LS coupling may fail for the 3d multiplets, or the scatter among the lines of the 3d multiplets might be due in part to their lower S / N, while multiplet 30 lines are generally stronger. In addition to the N 11 singlet and triplet lines, members of at least two quin— tet multiplets are present in our spectra. These lines appear genuine: most ID’d by 137 EMILI as primary “A” IDs. Some of these lines have been tentatively observed in the Orion Nebula (Baldwin et al. 2000). They all have an intensity of approximately 0.60 — 5.0 x 10“5 H6, which is an order of magnitude less than the average value from the standard N 11 recombination lines. These lines must be created by a mechanism that preserves total angular momentum. While Grandi (1976) suggests that dielec- tronic recombination is unlikely to populate the levels from which these lines arise, it remains a possible excitation mechanism for them. As with the 0+ quartet lines, their strengths, and the lack of distinct inter-combination (spin changing) transitions observed in our spectrum, suggest that if dielectronic recombination or some other process is responsible for their existence, they contribute little to the populations of the levels from which one-body recombination lines arise. We will list all of these lines in § 4.3.2. A few other, mostly weak, N II recombination lines were observed in our spectrum, but generally only single members of a multiplet; some with no effective recombination coefficients. We chose not to calculate abundances from these lines. With the great uncertainty in the excitation source for the lower term multiplets, we will adopt the summed multiplet 36 abundance for N"2 based this multiplet’s apparent independence from opacity case and and immunity from continuum fluores- cence. Abundances from the 3d-4f lines, however, suggest that this estimate may still be a factor of two too high. 138 38$ 58$ 5 2:82 m mx 8%: 83$ a 3:288 m >m $9 3 - a: as 2 83:32 an: Swan :3 v3.9. 335 ”new 83. 33m 8% ”was“. 38d q: 3: page. @839. 82.. 8%: mom...» was” 8de M2: ER 5989. @388 3 $3 83m 8% $93. $85 3: 32 333$ 82mg.

The O I line A8446 line is predominantly excited by continuum fluorescence from starlight, in which resonance transitions excite upper 3S" and 3D" terms, which are then followed by cascades to the A8446 origin level(Grandi 1975a). Grandi (1975a) has shown that continuum fluorescence by starlight is 9 times more effective than fluorescence via Lfl photons directly through the resonance transition at A1012A for the 3d 3D° level followed by cascade to the 3p 3P A8446 origin level. All of the levels of the ns 3S” and nd 3D” sequences have resonance transitions to the ground state, but only some have coincidences with a specific Lyman series photon energy. Though the 3p 3P - 7s 38" A5555 transitions lacks this coincidence, its observed intensity fits well with the rest of the sequence. These sequences were still readily detectable at the highest excitation upper levels observed in our spectrum, yet both abruptly terminated when their upper levels exceeded exactly 13.40 eV. If these lines are continuum fluorescence lines, the source ion, neutral oxygen, would reside outside the ionization front beyond which the continuum radiation is truncated blueward of the Lyman limit. The Lyman limits corresponds roughly to that 13.40 eV “cut-ofl"’ energy. Thus, it is likely the same process excites all of the excited levels which feed the A8446 line. Recombination is also ruled out in dominating the excitation of the triplet lines 144 we observed based upon the comparative intensities of the A8446 line (multiplet 4) to its quintet counterpart, 33 58° - 3p 5P, at A7773 (multiplet 1). If recombination dominated both spin multiplicity groups, then the relative strengths of comparative lines, such as A8446 and A7773 should be roughly proportional to their statistical weights. However, A8446 is observed to be stronger than A7773 by roughly 20 times, exceeding the ratio of statistical weights which is unity. Fluorescence process from the ground state can’t strengthen quintet lines, but it can strengthen triplet lines. Our abundances are listed in Table 4.12. The excellent abundances agreement of the quintet multiplets indicates strict LS coupling with little additional excitation mechanism contribution beyond recombination. The much larger calculated abun- dance of A8446 attests to the efficiency of continuum fluorescence in its excitation as compared to recombination. For the quintets, effective recombination coefficients were available only for case A. Therefore we adopt the average of the case A abundances from the quintet multiplets as our final value. 145 . . .

(2000) in using for the 3s-3p transitions the LS-coupling based effective recombination coefficients from Storey (1994). For 3p-3d and 3d-4f transitions we used Liu et al. (1995a) who calculated effective recombination coeflicients based on an intermediate coupling scheme. Abundances calculated from both individual lines, and from the sum of those lines observed within each multiplet are listed in Table 4.13. Calculations were carried out under all opacity case for which atomic data existed (no case C calculations were available for the 3p-3s transitions from Storey (1994)). Blank entries under each case in the table indicate missing coefficients. Comments regarding individual lines and multiplets can be found immediately following the table. The most striking thing is the excellent agreement shown between summed abun- dances from nearly all multiplets, under the opacity case C. The large population of the 2p4 2D” that this would entail would require electron densities in the vicinity of the 0+ to be near that level’s critical density, so that a more Boltzmann-like pop- ulation distribution is set up between the collisionally-excitable levels. Our electron density, determined directly from 0+ forbidden lines, is 10000 cm‘3, which exceeds the critical density of 34000 cm“3 at the assigned ionic temperature of 8900 K. Thus it is conceivable that a significant pOpulation could be present in the 2p4 2D° state, to allow transitions terminating at the state to become optically thick, establishing case C conditions. This argues against the choice of case A for doublets, as was done by Liu et al. (2000) in their study of NGC 6153. But their density was only 3500 147 cm‘3 so our choice for case C is more valid in IC 418 than it would be in NGC 6153. The idea that IC 418 might be in case C has been previously proposed by Harrington et al. (1980). We adopted case C for all doublets, where atomic information for this case was available. For the quartets, Liu et al. (2000) chose case B, which gave better agreement between case-sensitive and case-insensitive multiplet abundances. Our data also sug- gests that either case B or C prevails for quartets. Abundances for case insensitive multiplets, such as from multiplets 1 and 2, agree much better with case B and C abundance from case-sensitive multiplets 19, 20, and 28. Case C does yields more consistent results between the doublet and quartet multiplets, for those multiplets with atomic data available to allow a calculation of case C conditions. Though case C would seem only to affect doublets, non LS-coupling schemes relax selection rules, allowing interplay between doublet and quartet states that is not allowed in strict-LS coupling. Because the 3p state was calculated here in LS coupling, adopting case C will not have a significant effect upon its level populations. So, case C values for multiplets 1 and 2 should be fairly close to case B values. The origin of the large abundance for multiplet 11 is not clear. This was not seen by Liu et al. (2000) for this multiplet. Hyung, Aller, & Feibelman (1994) speculate that several 0 II recombination lines in IC 418 could be strengthened by continuum fluorescence by starlight. The upper level of multiplet 11, 3d 4F, is connected to the ground state by a resonance transition at A430A. However, Grandi (1976) has calculated that continuum fluorescence can at most make a 20% contribution to the lines of multiplet 2, and much less to other quartet multiplets, under the physical 148 conditions prevailing in the Orion Nebula, or IC 418. Multiplet 2 does not exhibit a distinct overabundance in our data. O+ lies near the interface region where hydrogen is changing from ionized to neutral, so the Optical depth of radiation capable of exciting its resonance transitions is extremely large. We note that Storey (1984) predicts zero intensity in this multiplet under case A conditions, and the effective recombination coefficient for the multiplet for case B is eight times smaller than that determined by Liu et al. (1995a), so we might conclude that in this particular case the atomic data might truly be uncertain. Within the multiplets, individual line abundances seem to show good agreement. Much of the scatter here can be attributed to individual measurement uncertainties and blends with other lines. However, in multiplet 12 several additional lines should have been detected (AA3847.893,3864.667) according to the relative branching ratios provided by Liu et al. (2000). For multiplet 20, the LS-coupled values for abundances, using Storey (1994) effective recombination coefficients and branching ratios defined as in eq. 4.4, seem to show less scatter than the abundances calculated using Liu et al. values. The 3d-4f transitions show excellent agreement among themselves, and with abun- dances determined from other multiplets under case B or C conditions. These transi- tions are immune to fluorescence excitation and are case insensitive. Although weak, they seem to serve as excellent abundance indicators. Because of the greater consis- tency of case C abundances across all types of multiplets, we will use the average of the summed abundances from each multiplet (except multiplet 11) using the highest opacity case available (using case C when available, else case B). Included in this 149 average is the sum of the 3d-4f values. We observed enhanced abundances from multiplets 15, 16, and 36, all of which are have large low-temperature dielectronic recombination coefficients (Nussbaumer & Storey 1984). This agrees with the trend seen by Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a) in other PNe. However the abundances of these lines cannot be reconciled with other 0 II recombination line abundances, within the temperature range for which the Nussbaumer & Storey formalism is valid (to 60000K ). This may indicate that high-temperature, “enhanced” dielectronic recombination is occurring as is argued by Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a). We also observe several 0 II sextet lines, which must be formed exclusively by dielectronic recombination. The lines appear to be genuine detections according to EMILI. Their strengths are generally an order of magnitude less than recombination lines. As with the N II quintets, dielectronic effective recombination coefficients are not available. Since sextet line can not directly interact with levels from which standard recombination lines occur, and because they are extremely weak, we assume they do not affect the abundances determined from the conventional recombination lines.

Our calculated abundances from them are listed in Table 4.15. We again deduced the unpublished in- termediate coupling-calculated effective recombination coefficients for individual lines that were used by Liu et a1. (2000) for their 3d-4f transition abundance calculations, which we determined by working backwards from their tabulated intensities and abun- dances. We assumed that the calculations were carried out in case A, as was used for their 3-3 transition quartets, but it is not explicitly stated there. However, it is likely that they are case insensitive anyway. Unfortunately, the positions of many of the strongest predicted lines coincide with a region of the relevant spectrum which is particularly noisy due to nearby saturated lines and crowding at the Balmer limit confusing the continuum level. The Ne 11 lines aren’t strong enough to be clearly separable from the continuum in the short duration spectrum either. Many other lines observed by Liu et al. (2000) are outside our bandpass. The sole detected 35-3p line, Ne II A3777.134, was marginal ID’d, due to its amorphous line profile and its small theoretical strength with respect to the other lines of the same multiplet which were not clearly visible. Some of the strongest 3d-4f transitions observed by Liu et al. (2000), such as Ne 11 3d 4F - 4f 2[5]° A4409.298 and a complex of lines featuring Ne II A4428.634 3d 2D - 4f 2[3]° are clearly not present in our spectrum. None of the strongest optical recombination lines of Ne II were seen by HAF, so it may simply be that IC 418 is neon poor. 158 Table 4.15: Recombination line New/H+ abundances.

The data of Liu et al. (2000) and Luo, Liu, & Barlow (2001) showed that abun- dances from 3d-4f transitions are consistently a factor of two larger than from 3-3 transitions. Our data actually show the opposite trend. This casts further doubt on our A3777.134 ID. However, the effective recombination coefficients for the 3d-4f may themselves be in error by a factor of 2 (Liu et al. 2001). The higher abundance from Ne II A4457.050 does not arise from this effect, but probably from the existence of an unknown blend. However an obvious alternate candidate does not exist in our the EMILI output. The 3d-4f transitions. Despite the uncertainty of the effective recombination coefficients of the two prob- able 3d-4f transitions IDs, their IDs were simply deemed more trustworthy than the A3777.134 line. The final adopted ionic abundance was the average of their abun- dances. 159 4.2.4 Other Ions Besides the ions listed here, effective recombination coefficients exist for only a handful of additional ions. We observed numerous S 11 lines whose excitation is most likely recombination. While effective recombination coefficients exist for the upper levels of the transitions (N ahar 1995), specific branching ratios for multiplets don’t as yet exist. We welcome future calculations of S II effective recombination coefficients, as their recombination lines in conjunction with the strong [S III] AA9072,9530 collisionally-excited lines, can provide another excellent test of relative abundances. We also observed numerous Si, Fe, and Ni permitted and forbidden lines. As our analysis concentrates upon the C,N,O,Ne ions which have previously shown a history of the forbidden line/ recombination line abundances discrepancy problem, we chose not to calculate abundances from these lines. Finally, the strongest transitions of C III, N III, and 0 III, as determined from Williams (1995) are simply not present in our spectra. Many lines of these ions are excited either by continuum fluorescence, or a resonance fluorescence with a He II line photon (Grandi 1976). Given the lack of He II photons for excitation to allow weaker transitions to manifest themselves, and the low level of ionization in IC 418, we chose not to calculate abundances for these ions from the small number of measured lines. 160 4.2.5 Comparative Ionic Abundances Listed in Table 4.16 are the final ionic abundances determined in this study, and in other recent studies of IC 418. Bold items in this table indicate ionic abundances for the same ion derived from both recombination and collisionally excited lines observed in the present study. 161 Table 4.16 Comparative ionic abundances for IC 418 from collisional/ recombination lines, in units such that log (H+)=12.0, for present and other surveys.

We will seek confirmation of this process, as well as other additional information, through an examination of the detailed line profiles from this study’s high level of resolution (10 km sec‘1 ). Line profiles, in velocity space, are the product of the emissivity of the source ion and the thermal width of the line, as functions of radial velocity (i.e. position in the nebula), and the radial velocity distribution, convolved with the instrumental profile. We will make use of a fundamental property of line profiles: lines belonging to the same parent ion should have nearly identical profiles. Specifically, we will compare recombination line profiles with collisionally excited lines from the same source ion, or from an ion in the next lower ionization stage. Profile agreement with the same source ion favors recombination as the dominant excitation process, while profile agreement with the differing ions favors continuum fluorescence as a large contributor to a line’s strength. As seen in Figure 4.3, lines belonging to ions of increasing ionization potential, have generally narrower profiles (clockwise around the figure starting with “INS”). At low ionization, the ion is distributed further away from the central star, where the expansion velocity is the largest. Our line of sight intercepts both the front and back edges of expanding, roughly spherical shells. At our instrumental resolution 163 1 l ' [om] I 15.6 [on] 3726 5007 Relative Intensity Figure 4.3 Representative line profiles for ions of differing ionization potential with a comparative sample of the instrumental resolution element. The “INS” profile, of the night sky emission line [0 I] A5577, demonstrates the limits of our instrumental resolution. The level of ionization increases clockwise from the instrumental profile. the individual components of emission from both edges are separated in the profile, as in [O I] A6300 above in Figure 4.3. At higher ionization potentials, the ions are concentrated nearer the central star where the expansion velocities are less, and it become increasingly more difficult to separate “forward” and “rearward” nebular emission components (see [0 II] A3726, Figure 4.3). Eventually the intrinsic full width half maximum of the nebular lines due to thermal motions (about 20 km sec“1 ) prohibits separation at our resolution as the components merge together ([0 III] A5007, Figure 4.3). This clear sequence of profile width with ionization energy is a consequence of the comparatively simple expansion geometry of IC 418, and is a primary reason why this PN was chosen for observation. In the following plots we show, the profiles of representative lines from each multi- plet from which abundances were determined, choosing the strongest line most likely 164 not to be part of a blend. The abscissa of each plot is line intensity normalized to the largest intensity within the line, while the ordinate is the wavelength spread of the profile in velocity space, centered on the line ID’s tabulated wavelength. In each profile box are listed the ID (upper left hand corner, with wavelength rounded to nearest A), the FWHM (in km sec’l , upper right corner), and if applicable, the multiplet to which the line belongs (below the FWHM). CII In addition to the strongest lines, the profiles of the high-excitation lines from Ta- ble 4.8 are also included for comparison purposes. The C II A4267 line includes all of multiplet 6. This line is a blend, as are the high-excitation lines. Line profiles are shown in Figure 4.4. As mentioned earlier, the pattern of abundance enhancement shown by the other C 11 lines with respect to A4267 is in general agreement with potential continuum fluorescence excitation of some of the upper levels of the observed multiplets (mul- tiplets 3 and 4) followed by cascade through additional observed multiplets (2 and 5), as proposed by Grandi (1976). Multiplet 6, A4267, being of higher orbital angu- lar momentum, is removed from both direct excitation of its upper level, as well as cascade from higher energy levels which could be so excited. Unfortunately, no collisionally excited lines of either C+ or C+2 are present in our observed bandpass, nor is the FWHM listed in HAF or HKB for UV lines of those ions. However, C II, N II, and 0 II “recombination” lines have similar FWHM (see Figure 4.5). The C II lines here are narrow, and show negligible evidence of the type 165 I CII l f.

The dashed line is the instrumental resolution limit. of double lobe profile indicative of lines of lower ionization. The proposal of continuum fluorescence of multiplets 4 is challenged by the sim- ilarity of their line profiles with the high—excitation C II lines, which would not be excited by this mechanism. Nor do multiplets 2 and 5 exhibit larger FWHM than other multiplets’ lines as would be expected from cascades following fluorescence. Only the lines of multiplet 3, whose upper level has the possibility of being directly excited by continuum fluorescence, show a slight increase in FWHM. However the agreement between A4267 and the summed abundance of multiplet 3, would seem to confirm that the population of the upper level of multiplet 3 is dominated by strong recombination and cascade from A4267, rather than continuum fluorescence. Therefore, we conclude that the line profiles do not support a large contribution from continuum fluorescence. These lines appear to be most strongly excited by 167 recombination. Since the contribution of continuum fluorescence can not be exactly quantified without a model of the central star radiation and radiative transfer through the nebula, it is unknown what ratio of C+ to C+2 would give a small enhancement to line strengths, but leave the profiles relatively unchanged, from the straight re- combination case. The effects of continuum fluorescence over recombination are more clearly demonstrated in the N I profiles. NI Recall from Table 4.9 that each observed multiplet returned a vastly different abun- dance, when calculated on the basis of pure recombination excitation. The over- abundance was attributed to strong continuum fluorescence and subsequent cascade through the upper levels of multiplets 1, 2, 3. As can be seen in Figure 4.6, the profiles of the strongest non-blend member of the each of these multiplets resemble the [N I] AA5198,5200 lines more than any of the [N II] lines. These lines FWHM also agree well with those for the [N 1] lines. The A9810.010 line from multiplet 19, was theorized here to be strengthened directly by continuum fluorescence excitation of its 3d 4D upper level. Although the profile is less distinct, and perhaps affected by its location on the extreme edge of the red spectrum, it is again more indicative of [N I] rather than [N II]. We conclude that all of these lines are powered primarily by continuum fluorescence, and that the abundances determined from these lines’ strengths under pure recombination are untrustworthy. Splitting the two lobes of the emission in each profile yields an expansion velocity of the object. All lines (except A9810.010 of multiplet 19) were split with the “d- 168 I ' I I I [NII] 6548 39.8 I I fir 1 I ' I [Nll] 6583 40.2 3‘ 3‘ .5 '63 C C 0 0 15 L5 .‘z’ 3 15 15 o I) a: c: A 1 l I j ' I ' I ' I VI A A 1 1 1 l L 1 L l L I -40 -20 0 20 40 -4O -20 O 20 4O Velocity (km/sec) Velocity (km/sec) Figure 4.6 Line profiles from N I, [N I], and [N II] lines.

The [N II] expansion velocity agrees well with the 12.0 km sec‘1 given in Acker et al. (1992). We note that each profile exhibits a velocity dependent structure which is not symmetric about the line center, indicating that forward component emission is not as strong as the rearward component. This is a common feature of many PNe lines at 169 Table 4.17 Measured IC 418 expansion velocity from line profiles.

It may also indicate a slit location off-center from an axis through the central star. However, a comparison of the [N I] A5198,5200 density diagnostic line profiles shows that the rearward component of [N I] A5200 exceeds that of [N I] A5198 even when the relative differences in scaling are taken into account. This would indicate differing densities in the forward and rear components of the shell occupied by N". For the [N 11] lines a similar determination of temperature is complicated by the “filling in” of the line profile centers by emission from the strong [N II] A5755 and nearly saturated [N II] AA6548,6583 lines bleeding over to adjacent pixels. The much weaker [N II] A6527 possesses the two lobe pattern characterizing foreground and background emission from the same expanding shell, but in a symmetric profile. While the difference in FWHM between the A6527 and other [N 1] lines can be explained by broad non-Gaussian wings in their near-saturated profiles, it is not immediately clear why the intensity ratio between [N II] A6527 and AA6548,6583 appears to be velocity 170 dependent. Since all three lines originate from the same upper level, their intrinsic intensity ratios should be equal to a ratio of their spontaneous emission coefficients. However, since the line profiles are drawn from different spectra (AA6548,6583 from the short duration intermediate spectrum, A6527 from the long duration intermediate spectrum) we believe it is likely that the extraction windows used for the two spectra were mis-aligned, giving rise to the different profile for A6527. NII In addition to the strongest non-blended lines, we include the strongest of the 3d-4f transitions we observed, as well as the strongest quintet line (multiplet 66 A5173.385) in Figure 4.7. Our earlier conclusion was that there was no consensus on the large scatter in abundance exhibited from the various multiplets. Grandi (1976) specifically names multiplet 30 to be excited by pumping via the He I A505.68 photons. However, Liu et al. (2002) concluded that it is more likely that this multiplet is excited by continuum fluorescence from the ground state. In either case the possibility exists for enhance- ment of lines in multiplets down the cascade path. The profile of A3829.795 (multiplet 30) is somewhat broader than A6167.75O (multiplet 36), the latter thought here to be less likely affected by any fluorescence process. The profile of A5679.558 (multi- plet 3), on the cascade path, also appears slightly broader than other lines. However, A4601.478 (multiplet 5), also on the cascade path does not appear noticeably different or broader than other lines. Grandi (1976) also suggests that lines of multiplet 20 may be excited by a mix of continuum fluorescence and standard recombination.

The broad profile of A4478.682 (multiplet 21) is more likely due to the irregular profile of a comparatively weaker line with respect to the other lines, than to broadening due to significant fluorescence contri- bution. Unfortunately the A5173.385 line is weak, from which no real conclusions can be drawn. The strongest 3d-4f transition, A4041.310, has a profile that agrees well with other N 11 lines, despite a slightly higher FWHM. As with C II, no collisionally excited lines of N‘L2 were observed in our spectra, nor are statistics for IC 418 available elsewhere for comparison. However, it is clear from a comparison with the N+ collisionally excited line profiles, that this ion is not the majority parent ion of these lines. This is evident not only in FWHM, but also in the lack of a two-lobe structure characterizing lines of lower ionization potential. The asymmetry in the profiles are also not evident in the N 11 lines. We conclude therefore that these lines’ strengths are most likely not dominated by fluorescence. Nevertheless, a small contribution from continuum fluorescence cannot be ruled out on the basis of the relative line profiles alone. OI Confirmation of A8446 (multiplet 4) being strongly fluorescent-enhanced is clear by comparing its line profile, with that of the 0" collisionally excited lines [0 I] A6300, A6363, and A5577, in Figure 4.8. The two lobe signature of lower ionization is present despite the fact the A8446 is a blend of several transitions. 173 I V I I * I 1 I ' I [on] 3726 [on] 557 46.6 1 l l I I I I on 7772 38.4 1 3‘ 3‘ .6 .6 C C O 0 15 E .g .3 on 8447 68.1 15 7.5 4 a? 62 l l J 4 I I I I 0| 9266 27 a 8 L1 l l I 4 l 1 / Iv" T fin ' I V l n A 44; J L k 1 l 1 ~40 —2o 0 20 4o -40 —2o 0 20 4o Velocity (km/sec) Figure 4.8 Line profiles from [O I], [0 II], and O I lines. Velocity (km/soc) The profiles of the line A7771.944 (multiplet 8) and the blend at A9266 (multi- plet 8), show excellent agreement with one another, and align fairly well with the profiles of 0+2 collisionally excited lines [0 II] AA3726,3729. However both lines lack the two lobe signature and / or asymmetric profile indicative of lower ionization that [0 II] AA3726,3729 posses. The difference in profile may be due to a slight differ- ence in the position of the slit from the blue (AA3726,3729) to the red spectrum (AA7771.944,9266). The O I lines might also arise from a slightly different portion of the nebula than do the [0 II] lines. Recombination lines will tend to form in the portion of a particular zone occupied by an ion where recombination is most effective (cooler temperature), while collisional lines favor regions where collisional excitation 174 is the highest (warmer temperatures). This is the notion of temperature fluctuations within the region in which O+ resides. We will test for this in § 4.3.3. Given the excellent agreement between abundances determined from the A7771.944 line and the A9266 blend, based on pure recombination theory alone, re- inforced by the obvious disagreement between their profiles and those of [O I] colli- sionally excited lines, we rule out fluorescence processes as major contributors to the O I line strengths. 011 In addition to the strongest lines from those multiplets which were used for abundance determination, we plot the strongest 3d-4f transition at A4089.288, and the strongest lines from multiplet 15, 16, and 36 in Figure 4.9. Lines from the latter multiplets are thought to be excited primarily through dielectronic recombination and they yield larger abundances than most of the other 0 II lines (see § 4.3.2). The line profiles generally confirm what our abundance measurements told us: all lines strengths appear to be well-described by recombination alone. The profiles of the representative lines agree extremely well with those of the 0+2 collisionally- excited lines, and do not conform to the 0+ collisionally-excited lines. There is no evidence for the double lobe/ asymmetric structure in the 0 II lines that is evidence in [0 II] AA3726,3729. Specifically, we don’t see any obvious signature of fluores- cence activity in the profiles of the representatives from the “dielectronic” multiplets A4590.974 (multiplet 15), A4351.260 (multiplet 16; actually a blend of two transi- tions), and A4185 (multiplet 36), which could be acting to enhance their respective 175 Acou\Exv 3.00.0) .86: z o as .2: 2 .E 2 so: 8:66 25 3. 23E Acuity: £66.; Kuwml “BUM! 0* ON 0 ONI 0*] H .r WVMFHL.

The profile from the representative of the multiplet which yielded the most discrepant abundance (A3907.455, multiplet 11) is somewhat broader than the other 0 II lines. However, this is also among the weakest lines in the group, so its irregularly shaped profile could be a function of marginal detectability. Nor are there even vague traits that could cause us to think it might be similar to the [0 II] lines. Finally, the profile of A3883.137 (multiplet 12) is extremely irregular, since it’s the weakest among non 3d-4f 0 II transitions. It was included here because the other two observed multiplet members are parts of blends. We conclude that if any continuum fluorescence is acting to strengthen the lines, it is at a level that is even less pronounced than in C II or N II, and certainly not at the level of N I or O 1. Ne II We plot in Figure 4.10 the profiles of all the lines we used to determine the Ne+2 abundance. All the Ne II lines, except Ne II A4457.050, are extremely weak. Unfortunately the profiles are not distinct enough to draw many conclusions. However it does appear that A3777.134 (multiplet 1), the only non 3d-4f transition of Ne II we observed, appears to have a similar profile, in its primary peak, to those exhibited by the Ne+2 collisionally excited lines [Ne III] AA3869,3968. The secondary peak may be indicative of a second blended line or a noise spike from the continuum; it is difficult to tell. Even if it was a second line, its inclusion into the summed flux for this line (the reason for the large FWHM was the inclusion of the secondary smaller peak in the 177 Relative Intensity I ' I I I [Nelll] 3869 13.6 I T I 14.2 4 I v f Nell 3777 41.5 1 1‘: 1 = : . a 4 : [A 1] I L I I .

For the 3d-4f transitions, A4219.745 is somewhat broader than the [Ne III] lines, but this could again be contributed to noise. The A4391.991 line, which is somewhat stronger, shows good agreement with the [Ne III] lines in its profile. For A4457.050, we note that the profile is distinctly broader than any of the other Ne II or [Ne III] lines. It is not clear why this 3d-4f transition should be strengthened when others are not. The 3d-4f transitions should be immune to ground state fluorescence processes. This leads us to believe that this is a line from a different ion, with Ne II A4457.050 at most part of a blend with that line. 178 Conclusions 0 Where continuum fluorescence is predicted or shown to dominate the contribu- tion to a line strength, such as for the N I lines of the same multiplicity as the ground state, or the O I A8446 lines, it is readily apparent from the profiles that this is the case. Their profiles clearly resemble those of collisionally excited lines of the same ionization state, as opposed to those of the next higher ionization state. 0 Where continuum or Bowen-like fluorescences are thought to contribute a signif- icant amount to a line’s strength, there are hints of larger F WHM and broader profiles. However these subtle differences may be masked by irregularly shaped profiles from weaker lines. There is no distinct signature for enhancement on a lower level than that shown for the O I A8446. The dependence of a profile’s morphology on the degree of continuum fluorescence enhancement is not clearly demonstrated in our dataset. e The profiles of [N I] AA5198,5200 suggest that electron densities may vary be- tween the forward and rearward portions of the shell, evidence not seen in the [O I] temperature diagnostic lines’ profiles. 0 O I recombination lines lack the asymmetric profile of the [0 II] collisionally excited lines. This suggests that these 0 I recombination lines may be formed interior to [0 11] lines, or that temperature fluctuations may be present in the region of the nebula occupied by 0+. Alternatively, this may also be due to 179 observational diflerences between the individual spectra. 4.3.2 Enhanced Dielectronic Recombination Our long duration exposure spectra reveal numerous lines which, according to both LS selection rules and the effective recombination coefficients of Nussbaumer & Storey (1984), are either primarily or solely produced by dielectronic recombination. We list some of the brightest of these lines, and the ones with the most certain IDs, for C+2 in Table 4.18, N+2 in Table 4.19, and 0+2 in Table 4.20. This includes numerous doublet C+2 lines, whose presence is not surprising given that dielectronic recombination is dominant recombination mechanism for (3+3 (Osterbrock 1989, Kwok 2000). However, several quartet (3+2 quartet lines are also observed in our spectra, as are N +2 quintet and 0+2 sextet lines, more tentatively ID’d. These lines must be formed by dielectronic recombination, and their presence is a signature of its operation at the location we observed in IC 418. Unfortunately, recombination coeflicients for their multiplets are unavailable for direct abundance determination. It should be noted that the effective recombination coefficients for abundances calculations from the majority of C”, N”, and 0+2 lines are derived directly from the photoionization cross-sections of the initial states, with special attention paid to the resonances within them that give rise to dielectronic recombination. Separate coefficients gauging the effects of low-temperature dielectronic recombination alone on one-body recombination lines, from Nussbaumer & Storey (1984), have shown that, with the exception of a few cases listed below, dielectronic recombination makes 180 Table 4.18 C II dielectronic lines.

Given the apparent lack of lower order Ne II lines, it seems unlikely that a higher order line is present, so the sextet line could be a good choice. 183 tronic recombination rates of Nussbaumer & Storey (1984). Dinerstein & Garnett (2001b) proposed “enhanced” dielectronic recombination, perhaps on the interface of a significantly hotter central “bubble” of the nebula and the nebular shell itself, to be potentially responsible. The authors show that a correlation exists between nebu- lar surface brightness (a proxy for age), and the amount of the discrepancy between recombination and collisionally excited line O+2 abundances. Smaller, younger, and higher surface brightness PNe exhibit less of a discrepancy than older, dimmer, and larger PNe. This represents the bubble, expanding with time, carved out the center of the PNe by a strong central star wind. High temperature dielectronic recombination is an attractive alternative excitation mechanism. At higher temperatures, higher energy autoionizing states are accessible by recombining electrons. These add more contributions to the total recombination rate to a particular ion than are included in the low temperature case. Furthermore, Storey (1981) has shown that these higher energy states are more likely than low lying autoionization state to decay via stabilizing transitions rather than autoionizing. Other ions in the vicinity of the interface could also be affected. Ne”, with the highest ionization potential of any recombination line for which abundances were measured, would possibly be the most susceptible to this mechanism. The inclusion of its possible effects would probably reduce its factor of six abundance discrepancy. IC 418, with an estimated age of perhaps less than a thousand years (Phillips, Riera, & Mampaso 1990), high surface brightness, (2.3 x 10'12 in units of absolute H6 flux per square arcsec as determined by Acker et al. 1992), and low abundance discrepancy in 0”, would seem to fit this paradigm well (i.e. have a smaller bub- 184 ble size). Yet, our calculations of 0+2/H+ from multiplet 15, using the coefficients of N ussbaumer & Storey (1984) (see Table 4.20), reveals a significant departure from the abundances determined from other multiplets under opacity case C. Our long duration observations revealed two additional multiplets (16 and 36) that are also primarily populated by dielectronic recombination (Nussbaumer & Storey 1984), yielding sim- ilar but smaller overabundances. This would seem to conflict with the Garnet & Dinerstein notion of younger PNe not having a significantly large “bubble” for this enhancement to be seen over a large portion of the nebula, or specifically at the large distance from the central star we observed at. Prior to adjustment to case C, the other 0+2 multiplet abundances showed much greater scatter and were higher overall. We note also that the calculations of N 033— baumer & Storey (1984) assume Optically thin conditions for all lines. Could a similar adjustment to case C reconcile the abundances from multiplets 15, 16, and 36? An examination of the Grotrian diagrams of 0+2 from Bashkin & Stoner (1976) shows that none of the suspect multiplets originates from a level that has an obvious reso- nance transition to the doublet sequence’s 2p3 2D” “ground state”, although two of the multiplets are one step removed down a cascade path from an upper level that does. However, no members of the multiplet that would connect the 4d 2‘F level with the upper level of multiplet 15 (3p’ 2F") are visible in our spectra. Unfortunately, for the other multiplets, similar connecting transitions listed in Bashkin & Stoner (1976) are not accessible in our bandpass. Given that multiplets 15 and 36 follow the same cascade path, that the upper level of 36 is inaccessible to the “ground state” either directly or via a direct cascade from another level, and that these levels are of high 185 orbital angular momentum, it is likely that these multiplets’ strengths are immune to changes in Opacity case. For enhanced dielectronic recombination to work, significantly higher tempera- tures would be needed; on the order of 35,000—65,000K estimated to reconcile the abundances discrepancy of NGC 6720 (Garnett & Dinerstein 2001b). At such tem- peratures it might be expected that the thermal widths of lines from these multiplets would be much broader. No distinct evidence of broadening is seen of this in our line profiles, but this is not conclusive. The thermal width of an 0 II line is only 5 km sec‘1 at 10000 K ; a five fold increase in temperature would only increase this width by a factor of 2.2, just over our instrumental resolution. Furthermore, Dinerstein & Garnett (2001b) are unable to adjust physical parameters to retain other observed properties, such as the strengths of [0 III] lines, under these scenarios. Finally, the strengths of the sextet lines, weaker by an order of magnitude than most other 0 II recombination lines, suggest that dielectronic recombination is probably not going on at enhanced rate, perhaps not enough to explain the over-large strengths of multiplets 15, 16, and 36. We wonder instead if the dielectronic recombination coefficients for these multi- plets are erroneous. Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a) data shows that multiplet 15 yields a consistently higher 0 II abundance with respect ot other 0 II lines. Multiplet 36, in the same cascade path of multiplet 15, also yields a higher abundance. It would make sense that transitions along this same cascade path could all be miscalculated. Finally, any enhanced processes should go on in a narrow zone (e.g. the interface region between the bubble and the shell). Since ions are concentrated at different 186 locations, it seems unlikely that enhanced dielectronic recombination can explain all their abundance discrepancies, as well as 0”. 4.3.3 Temperature Fluctuations Temperatures as determined from collisionally excited lines may be overestimates, because collisional excitation is the strongest at the highest temperature portions the region occupied by a particular ion. Overestimates in temperature lead to underes- timates in ionic abundances. Such fluctuations in temperature arise from naturally occurring density variations within those regions, subtly aflecting temperature diag- nostic line intensities differently (Kingdon & Ferland 1995b). To gauge the level of deviation in temperature from the diagnostic line derived value in the region occupied by a particular ion, Peimbert (1967) defines a temper- ature fluctuation parameter, t2, the rms scatter about an average or “ion weighted” temperature, To: _ fT.N.N(X)dode To(X)= fN.N(X)dode ’ (4'5) and fix) E f[Te—TO(X)]2N(X)Nede€ (4.6) T02(X) f NeN(X)de€ ’ where Q is the solid angle observed and the integration is along the line of sight through the nebula, and N (X) and Ne are the p0pulation of a particular ion “X” in the source level of a particular emission line and the local electron density respectively. Each ion observed will have its own t2(X) and TO(X) (Kingdon & Ferland 1995b). In the low density limit, a collisional line’s emissivity can be expressed as a single 187 collisional term. If the fluctuations are small, the emissivities may be expanded about the ion-weighed temperature T0(X). Two such expansions may be taken in ratio, to yield a relation between the temperature Te(X) measured from the diagnostic line ratios, T0(X), and t2(X) (Peimbert 1967): Te(X) z T0(X) [1+ (T33) — 3) 3(5)] , (4.7) where AB is the sum of energies of the upper levels from which the two lines arise. This relation may be calculated for any pair of lines of the same ion, provided they don’t arise from the same level (i.e. from the same fine structure state in a multiplet) and that satisfy AE << K T... Unfortunately, this rules out an analysis of Ne+2 for which only AA3869,3969 (from the same level) are available. We used [0 II] AA7319,7330 (AE = 116448 K“) from the 0+ 2p3 2P0 level, to remain as close as possible to the low density limit, since ample evidence suggests that the critical density is reached for the lower energy O+ 2p3 2D" level. At the critical density, the emissivities for the lines (AA3726,3729 for 0+) no longer consist of only a single collisional term; collisional de-excitation must also be taken into account, and the emissivity can no longer be simply expanded. The AA7319,7330 lines originate from levels with higher critical densities. Nevertheless, no correction is made for collisional excitation from the 2p3 2D” level itself (i.e. the emissivities of the AA7319,7330 lines may also not consist of a single collisional term), so the results here must be treated with some caution. A more thorough numerical treatment of this problem (Rubin et al. 2001), would be more appr0priate for dealing with 0+. For O+2 we used the [0 III] AA4363,5007 lines (AE = 91303 K“), which are from levels of higher critical 188 density than any density calculated from forbidden line diagnostics in this study. To observationally determine the parameters TO(X) and t2(X), a second inde- pendent temperature indicator, expandable in terms of its own To and t2, must be employed. We used the Balmer jump temperature, Te(H+), with temperature param- eter inter-dependence (Liu et al. 2000): Te(H+) = TO(H+)[1 — 1.67t2(H+)]. (4.8) For IC 418 we assumed that T0(H+)z T0(X) and t2(H+)¢=s t2(X), which holds fairly well for 0+2, according to the models of Garnett (1992) and Kingdon & Ferland (1995b), at the IC 418 central star temperature, log Te” z 4.6, and hydrogen column density, log N (H)z4.5 (HAF). Kingdon & Ferland (1995b) have also shown that the departures of the observationally determined if2 and the value determined directly from its definition (eq. 4.6) via direct integration of the radiation field of model spectra, should be minimal for the physical conditions exhibited by IC 418. The validity of the above assumptions for the case of 0+ is not discussed in the literature. However, it seems reasonable since these assumptions are often made for N +, an ion which should reside in a similar portion of the nebula as O+ does. The resulting system of equations (eqs. 4.7 and 4.8) can be solved for TO(X) and t2(X), which are in turn used to recalculate Te(X) and Te(H+) from Taylor expan- sions around T0 of the individual diagnostic line and H6 line emissivities. Finally, ionic abundances are recalculated employing the new electron temperatures. The resultant parameters and abundances are listed in Table 4.21, where we have em- ployed both the listed Balmer jump temperatures from Table 4.2 and the higher value 189 Table 4.21 Temperature fluctuation t2 and To values and corrected abundances, N+‘/H+, using different Balmer jump temperatures Te(H+) and Model value of t2 = 0.005.

It is immediately apparent that the level of fluctuations are much too strong for the level of abundance disagreement exhibited by the ions. Observationally deter- mined values of t2 (from a variety of ions, but usually 0”) range from PNe 0.00 to 0.09 (Esteban et al. 1999), with typical value of t2=0.03—0.04 (Liu & Danziger 1993, Garnett & Dinerstein 2001b). It is difficult to reconcile any of these t2 values with model predicted t2 values for the IC 418 physical parameters, such as t2=0.006 from Garnett (1992) or t2=0.005 from Kingdon & Ferland (1995b) for 0”. Model predictions are generally much lower than observed values, due to the real difficulty in inducing large scale fluctuations within the small region in which a particular ion is confined, without invoking an external excitation mechanism, other than natural occurring density variations. 190 Large values of temperature fluctuations might cause the temperature sensitive auroral line [0 III] (0”) A4363 to yield a very difl'erent abundance from other in- dividual [0 III] lines. Yet, the other [0 III] lines don’t show extremely different abundance from [0 III] A4363. did not show an excessive amount of abundance scat- ter. Marginally tighter abundance agreement is exhibited when t2=0.005 is adopted for 0”, but the same is not true for 0+. The large 152 for 0+ may be due to ignoring the collisional contribution from the critically dense 2p3 2DO level. Since we see better agreement in abundances when using smaller t2 values than the ones calculated observationally, the uncertainty in our Balmer jump temperature and diagnostic line temperature determinations are the most likely reason for the large t2 values. Kingdon & Ferland (1995b) provide an order of magnitude estimate of the error in the t2 value: 0(t2) 2 102:0) . (4.9) [\D In the system of eqs. 4.7 and 4.8, for 0+, the dominant source of error is the 40% uncertainty in Te(O+) value (see Table 4.2). Using 40% for 0(To) and TO(O+2)= Te(O+) results in 0(t2)(O+)z 0.20. The tabulated error for Te(O+) is most likely overestimated, given the agreement with other temperature diagnostics of similar ionization potential, and external agreement of this temperature with that calculated from the same ion in other studies of IC 418. However, even a more likely figure of 5- 10% can still significantly affect the value of 0(t2)(O+). Similarly, for 0+2 the largest uncertainty is in the Balmer jump temperature. The difference between the “high” and “low” Balmer jump temperatures yields an error of about 25% and 0(t2)(0+2)z 191 0.125. Even the uncertainties in the fits to the continua (about 600 K ), used in Balmer jump temperature derivations, significantly affect the recalculated temperatures and abundances. Given the extraordinary accuracy needed to pin down t2, moderate real temperature fluctuations arising from mundane sources, can easily go undetected. Diagnostic line temperatures of 8600 K for 0+ and 8430 K for 0+2 are necessary to bring the collisional abundance into agreement with the recombination values. Using these values as their respective ion’s To we obtain t2(O+)=0.031 and t2(0+2)=0.014, which are in line with commonly observed values of t2 (Liu & Danziger 1993, Garnett & Dinerstein 2001b), and are larger but more comparable to the model values than the values we determine observationally. Liu & Danziger (1993) suggested that all values of t2 Z 0.04 require a non-conventional excitation source. One such mechanism is shocks induced by a radiation driven, “fast” wind from the central star, impinging on the slower wind generated during the PN pre-cursor’s asymptotic giant branch phase (Peimbert, Sarmiento, & Fierro 1991). The wind deposits significant kinetic energy into the gas. IC 418 has been shown to have a strong central star wind; a terminal 1 was determined from P Cygni profiles in central star emission velocity 940 km sec- lines (Cerruti-Sola & Perinotto 1989). The calculated amount of power carried by the wind in IC 418 is low among PNe studied by Capriotti (1998), but the fraction of momentum absorbed to the momentum carried by the wind is in the middle of the range. So it is conceivable that shocks could play a role in creating temperature fluctuations. Signatures of shocks (Frank 1994) include line broadening, or a sharp temperature discontinuity at the boundary between the central hot bubble carved out by the fast 192 wind, and the dense shell created during the “slower” wind phase. Such signatures are not obvious in our line profiles or temperature diagnostics. Since we obtain more realistic abundances as well as better agreement between collisionally excited line and recombination line abundances when the model t2 values are adopted, we attribute our larger calculated t2 values primarily to Balmer jump temperature determination uncertainties, or uncertainties in our diagnostic line temperatures. 193 Chapter 5 Conclusions We have presented here emission line spectra of the planetary nebula IC 418. The spectra are the richest ever acquired for this PN, and among the most detailed of any PNe spectra. Roughly 600 lines in the spectra with credible identifications are revealed. Emission lines from a wide variety of ions are observed in these spec- tra, produced through both recombination-cascade and collisional excitation. We have compared the ionic abundances calculated from lines of both production mech- anisms, in an effort to better understand the nature of discrepancies seen in such comparisons in other PNe spectra (Liu et al. 1995a,2000). Finally, we tested leading candidate explanations of these discrepancies, taking direct advantage of the assets of our observations: numerous lines and well-defined line profiles. The steps used in the reduction and analysis of the spectra have been discussed, with particular attention paid to automated processes, which reduce the time invest- ment and provide increased accuracy. 194 Abundance Discrepancies It has been shown repeatedly elsewhere that recombination line derived abundances always exceed those determined from collisionally excited lines of the same ion. Our results allows us to make several comments on this issue: 1) Our data shows enhanced recombination line abundances, but at a different level and nature than is exhibited in other PN e. For 0+, 0”, Ne+2 we measured collisionally excited and recombination lines. For these ions the recombination line abundance excess depended upon the ion. The magnitude of this discrepancy ranges from a factor 1.2 for O”, to 2.1 for 0+, and 5.8 for Ne”. The O+ excess has seldom been measured. The N+ recombination lines were too seriously contaminated by continuum fluorescence to use. Our 0+2 and Ne+2 overabundances differ from the trend seen by Liu et al. (1995a) in NGC 7009 and Liu et al. (2000) in NGC 6153, where the recombination line ionic abundances showed remarkably similar enhancements over their collisional counter- parts. The NGC 7009 analysis indicates about a factor of five abundance discrepancy for C”, N”, and 0+2, while for NGC 6153 including Ne+2 a constant factor of ten enhancement was found. The C+2 collisional abundance from HAF or HKB in IC 418, derived from C III] AA1907,1909, yielded a recombination line overabundance ranging from 2-5. The overabundance factors among all these ions has no distinct trend in ionization potential. This argues for an ion-specific process acting to en- hance recombination line strengths, rather than a universal process affecting all the ions similarly argued for Liu et al. (2000). It should be noted that NGC 6153 and 195 N GC 7009 are higher ionization PNe, so the scatter in overabundance factors might be typical of lower ionization, younger PNe. 2) Abundance discrepancies appear to be real. For 0+ and O”, the collisional abundances do overlap the recombination abun- dances, within their mutual uncertainties: Collisional: o+/H+ = 1.663(+19.687, —1.308) x 1074, 0+2/H+ .—. 1.201(+0.188,-0.142)x10"", Recombination: O+/H+ = 3.489(i0.103)x10’4, 0+2/H+ .—. 1.487(:l:0.338) x 10-4. The errors in the recombination line abundances reflect 10 errors about the aver- age of the summed multiplets used to calculate the final abundances. The errors in the collisional abundances reflect the line intensity measurement and reddening uncertainties. However we believe that the collisional abundance uncertainty for 0+ is greatly overestimated, despite our best efforts at providing as realistic an uncertainty estimate as possible (see § 4.2.1). Apart from this we note the collisional abundances from individual 0+ forbidden lines agree better than the formal uncertainty estimate (see Table 4.3). The abundances from individual recombination lines within multiplets also show good agreement. For 0”, we note the large scatter in the recombination lines is mainly due to the inclusion of three particular multiplets in the total ionic recombination value. In seven of the ten multiplets included in the recombination average, the summed 196 abundance exceeds the collisionally excited value. If the contributions to the average are weighted by the total observed multiplet intensity, the resultant abundance is OJrz/H‘L=1.574x10‘4 which suggests that much of that lower abundances generally come from weaker, less accurately measured lines. In the case of Ne”: CollisionalzNe+2/H+ .—_ 4.344(+0.761,—0.616)x10‘6, Recombination: New/HJr = 2.536(i0.367) x 10"5 , the collisional and recombination abundances do not overlap, differing by more than generous uncertainty estimates. Independent measurements of the collisional line abundances in IC 418 (HAF,HKB) also show smaller ionic abundances for these ions than the recombi- nation values calculated here. Therefore, while the uncertainty estimates we have made would allow the abundances for 0+ and 0+2 to overlap, we conclude there is ample corroborating evidence for the abundance discrepancies in these ions and Ne+2 to be real. 3) The choice of coupling scheme and opacity conditions is shown to be important for individual emission line abundances, but its importance in some ions is masked by non-recombination excitation processes. Abundances from individual 0 II recombination lines showed less scatter than their counterparts in C II and N II. This suggests the advantages of non-LS coupling, as we used for 0 II. 197 Our evidence suggests that opacity case C (in which transitions terminating on the O“L 2p3 2D° level are optically thick) best describes IC 418. This choice has a physical basis. Densities from multiple diagnostic ratios indicate that IC 418 has an aggregate density exceeding the critical densities of the O+ 2p3 2D” fine structure states, leading to significant p0pulations in those states, and consequent strong self- absorption of photons from transitions ending on those states. This is the definition of case C. Finally, the idea that 0+ may be in case C in IC 418 has precedent in Harrington et al. (1980). The union of intermediate coupling and case C serves to bring O“2 abundances derived from the doublets and quartets into much closer agreement with one another than is achieved under either case A (all lines optically thin) or case B (same as case C except with 0+ 2p3 4S0). This was especially true for certain doublets. The pattern of recombination line abundance scatter among the multiplets of 0", N0, C+, and N+ is generally in line with ground state enhancement mechanisms pre- dicted by Grandi (1975a,1976) for those ions, particularly continuum fluorescence. These abundances were calculated employing effective recombination coefficients cal- culated under pure LS coupling. But the potential advantages of using a better coupling scheme may have been cloaked by the ground state enhancement effects. It is not clear what the overall agreement would be in their absence. Sources for Abundance Discrepancies: Numerous solutions have been pr0posed to solve the abundance discrepancy problem. We have tested some of the most applicable to our data. 198 1) Continuum fluorescence from the ground state is evidenced in many ions. Grandi (1975a,1976) has demonstrated that several ions are susceptible to exci- tation via continuum fluorescence from the ground state. Our observations confirm that many of the recombination lines in C II, N I, N II, and O I, predicted to be enhanced by continuum fluorescence, indeed evidence an enhancement. These lines are generally super-luminous as compared to other recombination lines considered “immune” to ground fluorescent contributions, because they arise from multiplets of higher energy and angular momentum more different from the ground state. The pattern of their enhancement also fits a picture of the strongest lines emanating from multiplets fed directly by a resonance transition, with weaker, but still enhanced, strengths for lines within multiplets further down the cascade chain. Profiles for lines enhanced by continuum fluorescence generally fall into two cate- gories. The first category includes lines in which continuum fluorescence is the dom- inant excitation mechanism, such as O I A8446. This category also includes lines for which the calculated abundances are extremely unrealistic, ten to a hundred times greater than the general N‘Fi/H+ z 10‘4 exhibited by collisionally excited lines or recombination lines from other ions, including many lines of N I. The profiles in this category clearly resemble the profiles of the collisionally excited lines of the recombined atom, as opposed to the ion of the next higher stage of ionization. The second category includes lines which show less enhancement (a factor of 2- 10) above the strength of lines from fluorescent “immune” multiplets. This category includes numerous C II and N II recombination lines we observed. Yet, their line 199 profiles are indistinguishable from other recombination lines of the same ion, or from the collisionally excited line of the next higher ionization state, and do not conform to collisionally excited lines of the recombined ion. It is not intuitively obvious why lines with lower but still substantially enhanced strengths do not more closely resemble the profiles of lines from the recombined atom. This may indicate that for these C II and N II lines, the bulk of the continuum fluorescence comes from gas closer to the region where the recombination is occurring, whereas for lines of lower ionization parentage, the regions of recombination and continuum fluorescence are more separated. There is no obvious progression in profile size or morphology with enhancement, though subtle details might have been missed even at our high resolution. Another probable manifestation of continuum fluorescence is the probable en- hancement of the [N I] AA5198,5200 density diagnostic lines. As mentioned in § 4.1.1, the intensity ratio is near the high density limit. Bautista (1999) has shown that continuum fluorescence is capable of pushing their diagnostic intensity ratio beyond the high density limit. Because of the strong enhancement exhibited by N I recombi- nation lines, we believe it likely that the diagnostic ratio is affected. None of the ions showing discrepancies were calculated with this density, although the C", N", and O" abundances may have been slightly affected. 2) Dielectronic recombination is occurring in IC 418. But there is no evidence for “enhanced” dielectronic recombination affecting standard re- combination line-derived abundances. Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a) have suggested that smaller, younger PNe should 200 show less of an abundance discrepancy in 0+2 than older, larger PNe. They at- tributed O+2 abundance discrepancies to an enhancement in dielectronic recombina- tion brought on by shocks created at the boundary of a hot bubble and the denser nebular gas shell. For younger PNe, this bubble has not yet had time to propa- gate very far through the nebula, leading to less enhancement. As evidence of this mechanism, these authors point to enhanced abundances from multiplet 15, which is primarily populated by dielectronic recombination (N ussbaumer & Storey 1984). IC 418 is a fairly young and small PNe, and does exhibit a low abundance dis- crepancy in 0”. However, abundances determined from multiplets 15, 16, and 36, all of which are populated primarily by dielectronic recombination, greatly exceed the average O+2 abundance from the other recombination lines. This is unexpected, since according to the Garnett & Dinerstein (2001a), younger PNe shouldn’t show much of an enhancement in dielectronic recombination, because the “bubble” hasn’t had sufficient time to propogate through the nebula. It seems unlikely that our ob- servations, at a significant distance away from the central star, would intercept the region of enhancement. We lack compelling physical evidence for such a process within our data: there is no obvious line broadening or temperature discontinuities among our diagnostics. The observed strengths of lines which must exclusively be created by dielectronic recombination (C II quartets, N II quintet, 0 II sextets), indicates that dielectronic recombination is probably not going on at a rate which would substantially aflect abundances from recombination lines, or explain the over-large strengths of multi- plets 15, 16, and 36 of 0 II. Finally, enhanced dielectronic recombination should 201 occur in only a small area, so this mechanism cannot be used to explain abundance discrepancies in other ions. A plausible explanation of the abundance discrepancies in multiplets 15, 16, and 36 of 0 II, is that the published dielectronic recombination coefficients are erroneous. Without enhanced dielectronic recombination, the generally weak dielectronic re- combination rates with respect to one body recombination rates, suggest that dielec- tronic process are probably not responsible for the levels of discrepancy that do exist in our data. 3) Temperature fluctuation determinations are inconclusive. We calculated the t2 parameter of Peimbert (1967) to gauge the effects of temper- ature fluctuations within the zones of the nebula occupied by 0+ and 0+2. We obtain it2 which would yield significant overabundances from collisionally excited lines with respect to recombination lines when they are used to recalculate abundances. The i2 value for 0+2 in particular conflicts with the much lower model values of Garnett (1992) and Kingdon & Ferland (1995b) for the IC 418 physical parameters. This low model values reflect the real difficulty in establishing large t2 over the limited regions in which any particular ion resides in the nebula, assuming that the cause of such fluctuations are restricted to moderate natural variations in density that are present throughout that region. However, the application of the model determined t2 values is insufficient to reconcile abundances (see Table 4.21). The calculated 1t2 value for 0+2 also greatly exceeds the observed average O+2 t2 value of 0.03—0.04 among PNe (Liu & Danziger 1993), and the O+ t2 value is higher still. To reconcile abundances, values of t2(O+) and t2(0+2) smaller than 202 what we observed, larger than the model values, but closer to the composite PNe observed “average”, are needed. However, these values necessitate the existence of external excitation mechanisms (e.g. shocks), not included in models of smooth gas with only small density variations (Kingdon & Ferland 1995b), and for which there is no evidence in our data (line broadening, temperature discontinuities). We note that the t2 values for both ions decline significantly when a higher Balmer jump temperature is utilized, but insufficiently to remove the overabundances in 0+ and 0+2 (see Table 4.21). We believe that a poorly determined Balmer jump tem- perature is mostly to blame for the high t2 value for both ions 0+ and 0+2. As seen in eq. 4.9 a small error in Balmer jump temperature can lead to a large error in t2. The jump temperature is used by both ions in their t2 calculations. The calculation in the jump temperature was complicated by many factors (see § 4.1.2) which lead us to believe it is extremely untrustworthy. While our observed levels of t2 are not entirely dismissable (values as large have been observed in other PNe), without a good determination of the jump temperature, we cannot say whether fluctuations at the level we observe, or at level necessary to reconcile recombination and collisional abundances, actually exist in IC 418. We can only say that model t2 values are insuflicient for this purpose. Automated Processes for Spectral Reduction/ Line Identification We have demonstrated the utility of various automated software packages, designed specifically for the reduction and analysis of emission-line region spectra. Among these, are our new routines for fitting Gaussians to line profiles, and code designed to 203 aid in the identification of emission lines. Some work remains in perfecting the fitting routine, specifically in the areas of error estimates and multiple Gaussian fitting. EMILI, the code designed to aid in emission line identifications, was an essential tool for this analysis. Manual identification of 805 lines would have been tortuous and error prone. The use of EMILI allowed non-conventional lines, such as the sextets of 0 II, to be considered as possible IDs, on an equal footing with other lines. Numerous improvements are envisioned for the code in subsequent versions, based partly on the experience of using it on this data set. However, we believe that even as it stands now, EMILI is a useful tool, and we have decided to make it available in the public domain in its present form. Future Work Unanswered questions remain. For example, why does IC 418 have a distinct C IV absorption line (Williams et al. 2003) yet barely detectable C III recombination lines? And, why does the Ne+2 abundance show the greatest discrepancy among all the ions selected. As always, follow-up work is essential. Some of the future work would include additional observations in the UV, IR, and optical. Many nebular ions have important transitions in the UV such as collisionally excited lines C III] AA1907,1909 and N III] AA1747,1754. The latter has not yet been observed in IC 418 and is an important comparison for the N II recombination lines. In the IR, fine structure lines of [0 III] are temperature insensitive, and serve as a check of the effects of temperature and density fluctuations. It does not appear that an IR IC 418 spectrum has been obtained recently. Additional deep observations 204 in the optical, concentrating on an approximate range of z3300—7500A , would add strong Ne II recombination lines as well as covering the rich C II, N II, O II spectra in this bandwidth. A large departure in our O+2 abundance from HAF can be directly attributed to our far stronger [O III] AA4959,5007 lines. We observed I A4959 = 72.7233 and 15007 2 214.9530, where I(H52100)), and they measured I A4959 2 29.52 and 15007 = 85.87. It would be interesting to see if our particular choice of position for this study “hit the jackpot” with [O III] emission. Abundance gradients in IC 418 would be sought through multiple spectra at different locations in all bandwidths. Finally, the construction of a model nebula (determined with the CLOUDY ionization code) could address questions regarding the extent of continuum fluorescence contributions on many ions, and refine our list of trustworthy transitions for abundance determination. In summary, we have created one of the most extensive lists of emission lines in a PNe ever compiled. Using this information, our observations of IC 418 have shown that an abundance discrepancy exists in this object, as in other PNe, with some differences exist in its nature. The most prominent difference is that no common factor for 0+, 0”, and Ne+2 describes each ion’s recombination line overabundance with respect to collisionally excited line derived value. Recent surveys of NGC 7009 and NGC 6153 (Liu et al. 1995a,2000), both higher ionization objects, have observed such a factor among the doubly ionized ions. After the examination of various possible mechanisms for explaining the discrepancy, we find that no single mechanism appears satisfactory as a sole explanation, at least within the limits of our data. Finally, we have determined numerous lines which yield untrustworthy abundances, and which should perhaps be avoided in abundance determinations of this and other PNe. 205 APPENDICES 206 Appendix A Mechanics of Data Reduction Steps The majority of the data reduction steps detailed here utilized various tasks of the data reduction package IRAF. A.1 Bias Correction and Image Trimming The initial step in image processing is the removal of the pedestal voltage or bias that is applied to the CCD before exposure, to guarantee a correct reading by the chip’s analog to digital converter. A so-called “overscan” region adjacent to the portion of the CCD used for imaging records this bias level for individual frames. This bias level must be removed to insure a linear ratio between the counts in each pixel and the number of photons recorded in that pixel. The columns in each line of the overscan region are averaged, then the variation from line to line, if any, is fit with a low order polynomial, in the case of these observations the with a constant slope. The need for a non-linear fit would indicate a serious problem with the particular image. This 207 function is then subtracted column by column from the actual imaging portion of the CCD. The overscan region is then removed or “trimmed” from the image section. Any residual bias level remaining after subtraction is in turn subtracted out through the use of a bias frame. This bias frame is constructed by taking several 0 second exposures of the CCD which record only the bias level across the chip. Each of these frames is inspected for large scale defects, such as a slope across the chip or a concentration of unusually high pixel values, which greatly exceed the average for the entire image. The frames are then co—added using the median of each pixel value. The combined bias frame is corrected for its own bias level in the same manner as object frames. The overscan region is then trimmed from the image section, and the remaining image subtracted from the object frames. In the blue set-up, two amplifiers with different gains were used, in order to speed up the read out times. Each amplifier had its own overscan regions, and the regions of the CCD covered by each amplifier were calibrated separately employing tasks customized for IRAF by CTIO staff in the ared package. A.2 Flat Fielding The response of individual pixels in a CCD to illumination is non-uniform. In ad- dition, the echelle spectrograph has a response functin which varies systematically over the whole CCD (due to vignetting in the optics) and along each echlle order (the echelle blaze function). To account for these factors object frames must be “flat fielded”. Two different methods were used to construct the flat field, depending upon 208 the instrumental set-up. Within the blue and intermediate instrumental set-ups, a bright quartz lamp uniformly illuminates the slit, and several brief exposures are taken with the decker completely open. The images, after the bias removal steps, are inspected for defects and co-added, with a common region within each image chosen from which to calculate the relative scaling. We scaled by the mode of the pixel values in the common region for each image, then coadded all the images using the median at each pixel, across the entire image. This takes into account the time intensity variation of the quartz lamp (i.e. the lamp “warms up”). The combined image is then fitted with a high order polynomial in both directions. To prevent functional “ringing” in these fits as the result of bad columns on the CCD, these columns are “patched” with a similarly sized copy of the image from the immediately adjacent region. The order of the fit was adjusted until functional ringing was minimized. The resulting fitted image is then Operated on by a wide—windowed boxcar median smoother along each line of the image to provide a smoothed version of the image which records only the overall instrumental intensity signature. The smoothed version is then divided into the fitted version, to create a final flat field, normalized to unity. This flat field records individual pixel to pixel variation of intensity response that can be divided in turn into each object frame after bias correction and trimming. In the red instrumental set-up, the flat field frames were taken in a similar manner, but with a decker, larger than the that used in obtaining the object spectra, but not large enough to cause overlapping of the orders in the bluest portion of the spectra. This resulted in an object-like 2-D spectrum of the bright quartz lamp used 209 to illuminate the slit. The flat field images were then co-added with median filtering, employing the mode from a section of one of the central orders for scaling. The portions of the CCD containing the individual orders were isolated from the inter- order region. The total intensity was summed along the total length of the slit at each column along the path or “trace” followed by the order across the CCD, to yield a 1-D spectrum of the flat field. Data within the order at a particular column on the 2-D spectrum were divided by the value of the 1-D spectrum at that same column in order to normalize them. Then a series of low order polynomial fits was made to smooth the data in swaths parallel to the center Of the trace across the length of the slit. Thus both the intensity profile within the slit and the individual pixel variations can be accounted for, and the smoothed flat field could be divided into all other spectra. The departure in the flat field creation method from the method followed for the blue and intermediate set-ups is required by the presence of fringing. Fringing re- sults from internal reflections and consequent interference of light bouncing off the interfaces of the air-substrate and substrate-silicon layer (CCDs are back illuminated through the substrate). It is further complicated by variations of the thickness of the substrate layer across the entire breadth of the chip on a size scale similar to the wavelength of the light. This appears as narrow waving bands of higher or lower sensitivity in the 2-D flat field spectra, which must be eliminated. The strong wave- length dependence of the fringing necessitated the use of a finite decker to isolate the wavelengths involved for the correction method described above. Fringing was not evident in either the intermediate or blue set-ups. 210 A.3 Scattered Light and Sky Background Correc- tions For nebular object spectra, the next reduction step involves the removal of scattered light. Scattered light manifests itself in a variety of localized phenomena, including phantom orders between and within spectral orders, and fuzzy ghost images. In addition, there is a general scattered light profile which contributes to the nebular continuum where it falls inside orders. Localized scattered light artifacts must be recognized by eye and excluded on a individually. However, it is possible to globally fit and remove the overall scattered light profile, since this information is recorded in the regions in between spectral orders. We began by isolating the regions in between the orders, then fitting low ordered functions first across the dispersion to the data within these orders. A second fit was made in the dispersion direction to the first fit’s values at each point across the dispersion. The resultant scattered light spectrum was then subtracted from the original 2-D Object spectrum. Care was taken to exclude from the fits regions of the spectra contaminated by flaring in the vicinity of strongly saturated lines (spill over of saturate pixels into adjacent columns and rows). Afterwards, 1~D cuts were taken across the scattered light subtracted 2-D spectra, to confirm that the inter—order regions were properly normalized to zero by this process. These operations were carried out in the IRAF echelle package tasks apall, which allows the isolation of the inter-order regions, followed by apscat, which performs the fitting and scattered light subtraction. For the flux standard star spectra and narrow decker quartz spectra used for flux 211 calibration, sky subtraction, as opposed to scattered light subtraction, establishes the zero point of the flux calibration scale. This process occurs during the extraction of the 1-D spectrum from the 2-D image, rather than beforehand, for the scattered light subtraction. It was possible to use this procedure for these spectra because the standard star and quartz lamp profiles did not fill the entire slit and a region existed between each end of the slit and where the profile tapers off from its center to a constant, which is the ambient background or “sky” illumination level. A linearly fit established in these sky regions interpolates the sky contribution to the standard’s profile. As each pixel was summed over the portion of the slit designated for the standard star, the value of the background at that same pixel from the iterpolation function was subtracted. The 1-D PNe spectra were extracted from the 2D images using the routine optezt (Rauch et al. 1990), in the mode where no sky subtraction is done, by summing along the slit at each position in a particular order, across the CCD. The 1-D standard star and quartz calibration frames were extracted with the IRAF echelle package task apall, with sky subtraction carried out as described above. 212 Appendix B RDGEN RDGEN is a component of the publically available spectral line detection and mea- surement software package known as VPFIT, written in FORTRAN by Carswell et al. (2001). RDGEN is specifically tailored to detect and provide rapid measurements of emission and absorption lines in extracted, wavelength calibrated Object spectra with non-negligible continua, such as the planetary nebula spectrum examined in this project. Only the emission line detection feature in RDGEN was used in the present study. I was the first MSU user of this program, and this appendix is designed as a “user’s guide” intended for those (e.g. my thesis advisor) who will want to use this program in the future. Further information for this program may be found at: http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/"rfc/rdgen.html B. 1 Inputs RDGEN requires as its inputs an array of flux measurements, wavelength values, the 213 accumulated error in those fluxes, and estimates of the flux in continuum, at all points in a particular extracted spectra. RDGEN accepts standard IRAF format extracted long slit and echelle spectra, where the information is encoded at each image pixel or “channel” along the spectra or spectral order. Other Options allow the use of ASCII tables of these values. The IRAF format is the most convenient if standard IRAF tasks were employed to reduce the object’s spectra. If the spectrum has been wavelength calibrated to a linear scale (relating each channel number to a specific wavelength as was done here), an estimate Of the instrumental resolution, in terms of the number of channels spanned, must be provided for each pixel in the spectrum or across each spectral order. The user must also specify the detection limits down to which they wish the code to attempt to locate lines, in terms of the accumulated probability of finding a line at random amid the continuum at the local level of noise. This parameter is refered to in the code as “-log probability of chance occurence”. The value of this parameter differs from the S/ N in a particular line, and setting its value generally will depend upon the characteristics of the spectra and user preference. B.2 Method RDGEN considers a line, a local region of the object spectrum, spanning several chan- nels, in which the flux value in the Object spectrum exceeds the value in the continuum. Progressing from lower to higher numbered channels, the code begins a prospective emission line at the first channel in which the flux value exceeds the continuum value, and ends when the flux falls below the continuum value. If the number of pixels 214 spanned exceeds the instrumental resolution, and exceeds the lower detection limit in terms of liklihood of non-random occurence, it is considered a ‘” detected emission line”. The search continues until the end of the spectrum or spectral order, or a user-defined wavelength limit. Over each pixel which the line spans, the code keeps track of several parameters: 9 The sums of the signal, 3,- (Object spectrum flux value minus the continuum value); continuum, 6,; and the ratio of the signal to continuum values, si/ci, i.e. the equivalent width per unit channel, in each channel i. e The sum of the product of the equivalent width per unit channel and the wave- length A,- at that channel, (A,- x (s,/c,)). o The channel number posessing the highest equivalent width per unit channel within the line (the channel i where si/c, is the maximum), essentially the “peak” of the line, and the wavelength value at that channel. 0 The code also keeps a seperate tally over those channels in which the error value a, is positive. This includes the sum of the variances 0,2, the signal, and the cumulative “-log probability” Of the line. The latter measures the probability in each channel of the channel’s signal value appearing completely at random in that channel, given the channel’s error value and Gaussian statistics. This quantity is essentially one minus the area under the normalized Gaussian curve out to the number of o by which the signal exceeds the error estimate. The 215 code defines the log probability as: 19,: — log [é—erfc (jig-ll , (8.1) where erfc(s,/\/20,) is a modified version of the complimentary error function. After summing all quantities over the line, the code checks that the user’s inclusion criteria. The number of channels spanned by the line are compared against the instrumental resolution. The line is checked for “real” detection, by comparing the line’s overall minus log probability against chance occurence, defined by: x 2 L8.— (B.2) pa; = —log[%erfc (5%)], (13.3) where pa: is the value of minus log probability parameter and all quantities sum over n channels in the line. The code limits p56 to a maximum value of 40 for the strongest line in the spectrum. The code then also computes the flux, central wavelength, S/ N, and equivalent width, employing the following ratios of tabulated sums acquired while scanning the line. The flux, F, is calculated by averaging: F = — 81', (13.4) wavelength A: A = (B.5) S/N: and equivalent width EW: Ext/=93 51', (B?) n . c.- l where AA is the wavelength difference between the first and final channel over which the line spans. NO profile fitting is done to make any of the measurements above. F inallyn the code calculates various other line attributes, such as FWHM and line skew, linearily interpolating between the channel values for the wavelengths where necessary. The code may also be utilized to detect absorption lines, as numerous tools exist within RDGEN to break up blended line profiles into components and to carry out other absoprtion line specific tasks, as described in Carswell et al. (2001). RDGEN cannot be set manually to look only for emission lines, but the absorption line detection process does not intefere with the emission line detection process, and both go on simultaneously. However, program output must be manually filtered to screen out absorption line detections if the code’s primary use is emission line detection. Output is stored by default in a file called “fort.9” in the working directory. Each row in the file contains one detected spectral line and its statistics. Absorption lines may be part of blends or complexes which RDGEN may break up, and thus several subsequent rows may be related to an initial absorption line. A “em” entry in the first column indicates the detection of an emission line, whereas “abs” indicates an absorption line, with subsequent rows, until the next “em” prefaced row, containing related measures for the absorption line complex. Each emission line will have only one row. 217 B.3 Operation Here we demonstrate the use of RDGEN to detect emission lines in the full, long spectra “blue418x.ec”. The input files used in this example were all in IRAF echelle format. For each individual flux calibrated emission spectrum, the extraction process yielded an error array. These error arrays were co-added together at the time their companion object spectra from within the same instrumental set-up were co-added, and the same scaling was applied to both the Object spectra and error arrays, during the co—addition, to maintain the same S/ N. For the blue, full, long spectra the error array took the form of a standard IRAF image file of exactly the same dimension as its respective Object spectrum: “blue418x.sig”. RDGEN automatically accepts an IRAF I 6 image sharing the same root as the Object spectrum with a ‘.sig” or ‘.err” suffix as an array of 10 error values, and will assume an array of 10 variance values when the image has a “.var” suffix. RDGEN will prompt if it finds no error file sharing the same root name as the object spectrum, or doesn’t find an image file with one of three suffixes listed. RDGEN also requires an array of continuum flux values, or an Object spectrum nor- malized through division by a fit to the continuum. The estimates of the continuum were made by applying a running boxcar median filter of various window sizes (51, 81, and 101 pixels) to the object spectra. This lends itself to a quick and fairly accurate estimate of the continuum level in locations away from strong lines. However, the presence of strong, wide, and closely spaced lines leads to a corresponding “bump” in 218 the continuum. The extent and magnitude of these bumps increases with decreasing window size, but the ability to correctly follow small scale variations in the continuum improves. For each individual order of the object spectra, a median filter spectrum which best fit the continuum Sharpe across the order with a minimum of “bumpi- ness”, was chosen to represent the continuum for that order. In some cases bumps were manually interpolated under, while in other cases, with a foreknowledge of the program’s mechanism, a bump was retained to force the detection of lines residing on the wings of stronger lines. RDGEN will first look for an image with the same root name as the Object spectrum but with a “.cont” suflix. For example, “blue418x.cont” is the final fit to the continuum for the long, blue, spectrum “blue418x.ec”. If no file with this suffix is present, RDGEN will ask manually for the name of the continuum fit file. If none is specified, RDGEN will assume that the spectrum has been pre-divided by the continuum (i.e. the continuum level will be assumed to be one everywhere in the spectrum). The Object, error, and continuum spectra were all wavelength calibrated by the same dispersion solution, and shared the same linear wavelength relationship between pixel and wavelength value. The image header for the dispersion solution information contains the wavelength span per channel ratio for every echelle order. This ratio, along with the instrumental resolution (in this example 10 km sec‘1 ), allows the calculation of the instrumental resolution element in pixel space. For all orders, the instrumental resoultion was a uniform 3 pixels/ channels. RDGEN is invoked by executing the rdgen command in the directory containing the VPFIT software package. Executing rdgen yields: 219 ***************************************** * ALL SIGMAS MULTIPLIED BY 1.00000 * * SEE VP_SETUP.DAT FILE * 4*********444444444444444444************* 0.0500000007< b < 100.

As in IRAF, an external batch file is allowed to be used. The mechanism is: >>>rd Filename for data? > where rd requests that RDGEN read in the data from an Object spectra or file. In this example the reply is: >>rd Filename for data? > b1ue418x.ec > Order number? [ 14], max 27 > 6 220 > IRAF v2.10 wavelength coefficients >> RDGEN will recognize an echelle format spectrum with multiple orders from the construction of the image file, and will prompt for an order number. Only one order may be operated on at a time. Upon sucessfully reading the data and interpreting the wavelength linearization information in the object spectra’s header, RDGEN will confirm its sucess with the “wavelength coefficients line” comment as seen above. RDGEN will also prompt for continuum and error array spectra information if suffix formats are missing. To get RDGEN to begin line detections, the command “ab” must be issued at the command prompt: >>ab Restricted output(r), fluxes (f)? [neither] Choosing I will print the S/ N statistic in the “flux” column, while choosing f, will print the flux in the “flux” column. The default (choosing “neither”) is to print the flux statistic. Selecting “neither” or any other Option returns: Sig. lims.: line, components, opt peak [5.0,same,as cpts] This line queries the user to enter what “significance limit” (Sig. lims.) the code should attempt to detect lines down to. This is the “-log probability against chance ocurrence” statistic that was mentioned previously. A value must be set that is 221 high enough to screen out completly spurious detections, yet be low enough to allow extremely weak legitimate lines to be picked up. For emission line detection, only the “line” parameter is relevant, with the other parameters used only for absorption lines, and their default values of 5.0 can be retained. A value of 3-5 seems to work best for “line”, as determined from previous uses of the program with similar spectra. These values yield line detections of a S/ N at which the detection is considered “legitmate” from manual inspection of the program’s output. Next the code inquires about the size of the resolution element in the particular spectrum or spectral order: Resolution, min sepn (chan) [3,nres/2+1] For each echelle order, it was determined that the default value of 3 was correct for the present spectra. The “min sepn (chan)” statistic is used exclusively for the absorption line detection portion of the code, and thus the default was selected. Finally the code inquires about the range of wavelengths to search: Wavelength range -1ow, high [ 3814.5, 3909.7]: The prompt displays the wavelength limits, as determined from the image header, for the particular order or spectrum under examination. The user may accept the entire order by using a carriage return, or specify the wavelength limits manually. Only one range in wavelength may be specified. To search over multiple ranges in one particular order or spectrum, additional calls to ab and rd are needed. 222 After answering the query, RDGEN proceeds to find emission lines within the spec- ified wavelength range, down to the probability parameter and other limits specified by the user. The output is echoed to the screen and to the file “fort.9”. The output consists of a FORTRAN formatted list of lines, each containing information about a particular emission line, or a component of an absorption line. The user is then re- turned to the standard RDGEN command prompt: >>, where the entire process may be repeated. If a batch file has been used, the next instruction in is then immedi- ately implemented, and sucessive output is concatenated to the “fort.9” file. For the study here the final output file was interpreted by PERL scripts, to generate input files suitable to various plotting programs, for use in screening spurious detections and establishing S / N limits, and for use by the Gaussian fitting program detailed in Appendix C. B.4 Code Benefits and Limitations RDGEN provides a quick, un-biased, approach to emission line detection, calculating many line attributes that can immediately be used in additional programs. Its in- formation is drawn directly from standard format IRAF images, necessitating little prepatory work. The ability to use simple ASCII format input files means that the program can be easily adapted to handle non-IRAF image formats. In general, the code automates a manually difficult and demanding chore, the detection of emission lines in an even handed and quantified manner, and does so with a minimum of prepatory work to the actual object spectra. 223 TO use the code, however, both an error estimate and continuum fit for the spec- trum must be present. Standard IRAF extraction techniques do not necessarily gen- erate either of these companion spectra, although the modified Rauch et al. (1990) routines do generate an error array. Since the line detection scheme employed by the code utilizes the difference between a perceived level of the continuum and the actual signal in the spectrum, in spectra with a noisy continuum where one searches for extremely weak lines, an extremely accurate value of the continuum must be as- sured to avoid missing legitimate lines or interpreting spurious noise as a line. An incorrectly flat continuum also may undercut strong blended lines and cause the code to interpret close lines (i.e. [O II] AA3727,3729A) as a single line; or undercut scat- tered light features, and interpret them as lines as well. Where the continuum fit falls into negative values (on the edges Of some orders in the blue and intermediate spectra where the scattered light subtraction over compensated for the actual level), the code will refuse to detect lines. In essence, the line detection is only as good as the continuum fit. Constructing accurate continuum fits and error arrays can be a time consuming process, especially when their creation is not an automatic part of the extraction process, or when it is necessary to tailor them to the various artifacts, line types, and general continuum shapes found within individual spectral orders. 224 Appendix C Profile Fitter C. 1 Introduction It is desirable to systematically and impartially fit Gaussian profiles to more than 1500 lines originally detected by RDGEN and deemed legitamate after manual inspec- tion. Measurements and fitting by hand suffers from a line to line bias in both the extent of the line’s profile above the continuum, and the level of the continuum itself. Instead we have coded a program in FORTRAN that attempts to fit single Gaussian profiles at all positions at which legitamate lines were detected in each Spectrum’s full slit extraction, using the data from their respective central cavity extraction spectra. Either the long or short duration spectra was used, depending upon whether the line was saturated according to Table 2.3. Simultatneously, it fits the local continuum level immediately surrounding the line with a linear function. This removes much of the observer bias regarding the line extent and continuum level, and puts all measure- ments on a more equal-footing, measured in precisely the same way. This appendix 225 is intended to both describe the method used and to serve as a user’s manual for this code. C.2 Method A typical line profile is spread over a number of individual pixels in an extracted spectrum. The input spectrum contains the amount of flux at each pixel or location (nebular signal plus continuum), and each pixel has a wavelength value assigned to it. The functional form of a Gaussian line profile superimposed on a linear continuum may be represented as: y(a:) = A+B$+Cexp [—(—1-:—2—02i)2[ , (C.1) where :1: is the wavelength, y(:c) is the flux at wavelength 2:, A is the zero point of the line describing the local continuum fit, and B the slope of that fitted line, C the amplitude of the Gaussian function at its peak, D the center of the Gaussian line profile, and a the width of the distribution. The flux in a particular line is the integral of the entire profile over the entire breadth of the line minus the contribution from the continuum: f=C[:exp [ix—113i] . (C2) 202 where I integrate over a wide pixel window, much larger than the profile, as an approximation, so as to take advantage of the symmetry in the intergrand. Recasting a into F, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) with the following form: F = 20\/21n 2, (0.3) 226 we arrive at an expression for the flux, after integration, equal to _¢Hc r_%flfi, an) and where the original equation eq. G] can now be described as... 27132; mil—28-0) ’ a; 769"" ‘ F ’ where again :1: represents the wavelength value minus some starting point, at each pixel Mfl=A+Bn+ (on in which the line profile resides, and y(:r) is the flux value, signal plus continuum) at that pixel. The code attempts to fit the best profile by altering the five adjustable parameters: A, B, D, f, F and solving for the minimum x2 as defined by 2 2 n (y. — A — Bx.- - 7—2V’:2%exp ['72 mph-D] ) 2 _ Z 02'2 i=1 where a,- is the error, provided by the complimentary error array to the Object spectra, at each pixel i over which the line spans (i = 1...n) To perform the X2 minimzation, the CERN code function minimization subrou- tines MINUIT were employed. The MINUIT subroutines may be called as external functions to any FORTRAN program, and the function a user wishes to minimize may be constructed as a seperate FORTRAN function, whose name can be fed to the spe- cific MINUIT routines of interest. The MINUIT routines used here are migrad which does the function minimization, and minos which does the error matrix calculation and provides the final errors on the fitted parameters. As mentioned, the adjustable parameters are wavelength, line flux, FWHM, and the slope and zero point of the local continuum. 227 The migrad routine Operates, in the case of this profile fitting code, by calculating the function: X2 (eq. C6) and perturbing repeatedly the adjustable parameters by user-supplied characteristic step sizes, following a path towards the minimization of the function, until such time that the change in the function between the parameters drops below a user-specified tolerance, or a user-supplied number of parameter ad- justment iterations has. been exhausted. The minos routine then follows, attempting to calculate an error matrix at the end of a run, and the specific numeric uncertainties in the fitted parameters. The errors in each parameter may or may not be symmetric about the final value. As input migrad requires an initial estimate of each of the parameters, and an initial step size by which to perturb those parameters when looking for the path towards minimization. In addition migrad also requires the name of the external FORTRAN function which holds the function to be minimized, the number of calls to the minimization routine, and the aforementioned tolerance value at which further calls to the minimization routine are curtailed. The user must include a also include an associated error array, binned to the same wavelength scale as the object spectra under scrutiny, in the format of a IRAF echelle spectra. Operation of the profile fitter begins with the submission of a group of line de- tections, one for each order or spectrum, in this case of the present data from the RDGEN line detector program, and the associated parameters for those lines, specifi- cally wavelength and FWHM. Also required is the name of the spectrum in which to make the measurements, the format of which again must be an extracted wavlength calibrated echelle spectrum, in standard IRAF echelle format, with the wavelength 228 solution for each pixel previously binned to a linear scale. The user than specifies two parameters known as the window and halo, in units of km s”, to be used with every line in the input list of detections. The window indicates the actual perceived size of the line, i.e.the width that is clearly visible above the continuum. The halo should cover a wider range, including a region immediately outside of the window, from which information regarding the local continuum in the vicinity of each line detection is drawn. Selecting the first line detection from the input list, the code fits eq. C6 to the set of pixels centered on the nominal wavelength supplied by RDGEN and extending over the halo pixels to either side. The wavelength value at the bluemost pixel within this group is treated as a “reference” wavelength from which all wavelength values are measured at all other pixels within the line’s pixel group. The MINUIT function minimization routine absolutely requires that all parameters be nearly the same order of magnitude to avoid precision problems. Since the flux values at each pixel, which are typically 10‘14 — 10‘16 erg cm‘2 A“ s"1 and the error array the square of that, greatly differ from the wavelength and FWHM (the former in A from the “reference” pixel and the latter converted to A in the code) are typically on the order of unity, it was necessary to rescale all the flux and error values at each pixel in the line’s group within the object before submitting the data to the fitting routines. This was accomplished by taking the logarithm of the flux and its error at each pixel within the line, summing these logarithms, Obtaining the average, taking the inverse logarithm of that average, then dividing the flux and errors at each pixels by the resultant values. If the flux was negative in a pixel or pixels, the logarithm was taken of the negative 229 of the flux in that pixel or pixels. The code proceeds by calculating the initial values of the slope and zero point of the local continuum fit. Only the rescaled flux values for those pixels in the region between the halo and window on either side of the line are included. The flux values for the pixels in this region are then fitted with a linear least squares algorithim, weighted by the error amounts at those pixels, to establish a linear fit approximating the continuum in the immediate vicinity of the line. The zero point need not necessarily be the flux value at the “reference” wavelength pixel, although all wavelength values remain measured against it. The step sizes by which to adjust the slope and zero point are taken as three times the uncertainties in the parameters as determined from the fit. Next, the code calculates an initial flux value in the line by employing eq. C4 and the FWHM included with the line’s input information. The peak flux within the line profile (signal including the continuum contribution) is sought, and the interpolated continuum level from the fit is subtracted to yield the parameter C in the equation. The initial wavelength and F WHM values are drawn directly from the input list. The step sizes are arbitrarily taken to be 10%, 1%, and 10% of their initial values repsectively for the flux, wavelength, and FWHM. These values seem to work best from repeated use of the code, and have been hard-wired into it. Finally, upper and lower bounds to the line flux, FWHM, and wavelength are set, with values equal to those reported in Table C.1. These are used as a sanity check for the output parameters, and to prevent the migrad from running away from a phyically sensible set of values. The error calculation routine minos will fail to calculate an error matrix if any parameter has exceeded this value after the termination of the 230 migrad run. The slope and zero point of the local continuum are unbounded. The code then commences to send the initial parameters and step sizes, the array of data points (flux versus wavelength at each pixel within the line), and the tolerance and number of desired iterations, to the embedded calls in migrad. Repeated use of the code has demonstrated that a value of 0.001 for the tolerance and 5000 for the number of iterations applied by MINUIT seem to work well, although the routines appear to be fairly insensitive to the choice of these parameters. The MINUIT routines attempts to minimze the function of eq. C.6, until either satisfactory results have been reached (tolerance has been achieved between sucessive iterations) or the number of function iterative calls has been exhausted. From this point the associated MINOS routines attempt to generate an error matrix, from which the uncertainties in the fitted parameters can be drawn. Upon completion, if the MINUIT has failed to converge to a good minimization, or if the resultant output parameters violate the upper or lower bounds set for them, the original estimates are retained. After completion of minimization, the code returns all parameters to their original scales. It then writes a new IRAF echelle spectrum in which the fitted profile, using the returned parameter values, replaces the original data. This output spectrum can then be plotted on top of the input spectrum as a way of visually assesing the quality of the fit. The values of the parameters are also written to another output file. In the event that migrad fails to converge to physically meaningful parameters and minos fails to arrive at a good error matrix, the original estimates for the parameters are utilized instead of the originals, and the occurence is noted in the output file. If the parameters exceed the upper and lower bounds set for them, the occurence is noted 231 in the output file, but the parameters are retained for inspection. The code then proceeds to the next line detection. C.3 Operation The code is invoked by writing on the unix command line gmod. Optionally a single numeric arguement may follow the command, if the user wishes the code to only make measurements in one particular echelle order i.e. gmod 6 would request that the code only make measurements in order 6 of the spectrum to be specified later. Upon execution the code will request the following information: > gmod Enter the root name of the Line List 1zblue418x Enter the root name of the IRAF echelle image blue418x.ec Enter the name of resulting fitted IRAF image testblue Enter the distance bounds from line centeroid (km/s) to sample continuum from (outer then inner): 75 30 The first questions ask for the root name of the input line detection list. The code requests that each echelle order have a list of lines in the format diagramed in Fig- ure C.1, with nomenclature: “root.?”, where the “'?” refers to individual apperture (not absolute order number) in the echelle spectrum. A seperate list of line detections must be included for every order in the spectrum, unless single order mode has been invoked on the command line, in which case only the file for the specificed order need be present. In the above example the root specified is “1zblue418x”.

These files must be ASCII files in free FORTRAN format, where each row includes information about one particular line detection. The use of a “2” as the first character of any row in such a file causes the code to skip the line in that row. Column (1) is the RDGEN “ID” number for line detection and column (7) is the RDGEN S/ N for the detection, which are simply echoed to the output and not used by the code. Columns (3)-(5) are information from RDGEN no longer required in the code in its current incarnation. Numeric place-holders may used in each Of these column’s stead, although some value must be present. Column (2) is the wavelength of the line detection, and column (6) is the FWHM, both in A, which are directly used by the code. The line detections within an order must be listed in increasing wavelength order for the code to operate. 233 The second question requests the root name Of the IRAF echelle spectrum from which you wish to measure the profiles. This name need not share the same nomen- clature as the line list root, but it must end in a “.ec”, the standard suffix which indicates an echelle spectrum generated by standard IRAF tasks. The code will also look for a companion error spectrum with the same prefix (before the “.ec”) but with a “.sig” suffix. The code will again warn if this file cannot be found. Both the object and error spectrum must be wavelength calibrated in exactly the same manner. The third question requests the name for an output spectrum that will be gener- ated using the fitted values of the parameters. The output will be named precisely what is stated here, without any extensions such as “.ec”. This output spectrum will be the input spectrum, but with the fitted profiles written in place of the original data. Across each order the bluest lines are written in the output spectrum first, so where there are closely spaced lines, the output profile of one line may be overwritten by that Of the sucessive line, if the lines halos overlap. The output spectrum can than be used like any other IRAF format spectrum, and may be operated on by any standard spectral tools included in the relavent IRAF packages. The last question requests the range of the halo and window for each line re- 1. In the example above all pixels within 70 km s’1 to spectively in units of km s— either side of the Specified wavelength center, are included in the fit are included for profile fitting purposes, while only those pixels between 35-70 km s‘1 are included for determining the local continuum values. Only one set Of values may be used per application of the program. Thus if the user requires multiple window and halo sizes, the program must be run again. The use of the “2” comment character in the input 234 lists may facilitate repeated application using the same input list. For this data analyzed here, the window size was adjusted so as to encompass the entire line profile including the expansive wings of strong lines and to place the con- tinuum sampling region as far away from the wings as possible. Meanwhile, for weak lines, the window and halo were shortened so as to not include too much continuum in the fit, and to minimize overlapping halos from closely spaced weak lines. A series Of three different halo and window sizes were used (in km 8"): (55,35), (90,65), and for the broadest lines (300,250). Upon answering this question the code will echo the choosen parameters to the screen: Line List Root: 12b1ue418x IRAF Image Root: b1ue418x.ec IRAF sig file: b1ue418x.sig Extent of continuum window from centeroid: 75. 30. Output name: testblue then wait for a carriage return to commence the process. A string of information from MINUIT will then flow onto the screen. Currently the code does not echo the information to a seperate file, due the vast quantity Of information provided, and the fact that where MINUIT fails to converge to a good minimization, or when the parameters it provides violate the set upper or lower bounds, this information is echoed into the profile fitter’s own output file. This output file, named “res” is placed in the working directory, and the output spectrum 235 containing the fitted profiles is also placed in that directory. A seqment from a sample output file, created by using a segment of the data analyzed here, using the above response to the queries in this example are shown in Figures C.2-C.3 The output format consists of the following information inscribed in the columns of Figure C.2. The first three rows name the input line detection list root name, the spectra in which the fitting and measurments were accomplished, and the window and halo sizes used for the particular run of the code, respectively. After the “column descriptor” rows, column (1) is the echelle aperture number from which the line was drawn, column (2) is the fitted wavelength (in A), and columns (3) and (4) are the possibly non-symmetric errors (in A) arrising from the fit. Column (5) lists the change from the RDGEN determined wavelength (in km sec"1 )2 the profile fitted value minus the RDGEN value. Column (6)—(8) yield the fitted FWHM and its associated, possibly non-symmetric errors (all measured in km sec‘1 ), and columns (9)—(11) are the same 2 sec‘1 for the flux, and the percentage of for the line flux (as measured in erg cm" the final line flux divided by a hundred). Column (12) echoes the S/ N determined by RDGEN for the line or a numeric place-holder, and columns (13) and (14) state the “ID” assigned by RDGEN (or again a numeric place-holder) and wavelength value (in A) for the detection respectively. Finally, entries in the final column, column (15), as detailed in Table C.1, indicate lines were the various MINUIT routine returned a value significantly different from the initiailly determined value, failed to converge to a good fit, or was unable to determine an uncertainty value for a parameter or parameters. 236 8: Av: no.0nvv hh.wvhn ma.¢¢hn ma.N¢hn an.0nhn HN.nnhn no.00hn 00.00hn vw.nomn mH.hhwn no.vrmn 0n.Nh0n 0N.0h0n 00.000n na.0wmn v0.000n VN.vmmn 00.n00n N0.Nwmn HH.HO0M 0N.000n 0v.mnmn Am: AN: vH on.HHN an hN.0 hm o0.vH ow Vb.NN ho h0.nn mo 0m.va VN 0m.mVH HoH on.vNN Nb 0h.onN mm 0a.mov no 00.000 a0 00.hno an 0n.mov ho 0n.nnv on oa.¢wn no 0m.non an 00.th av 0¢.wwN hv 00.nma 0v 00.NOH nv 00.0NH av OH.NoH .cumt».

The actual data are the dotted line, superimposed upon the solid line which is the fit. C.4 Benefits and Limitations of the Code The benefits to utilizing such a code are three fold. First, for the measurement of line wavelengths, F WHM, and fluxes, it is important to measure each line consistently, that is by applying the same methods of determining the continuum level and fitting the profiles. This is a difficult task to perform repeatedly for a large number of lines. Secondly, the code operates directly from IRAF input spectra, with a minimum of preparatory work. Finally, the code automatically calculates the errors in the fitted parameters. 238 Table C.1 Legend for entries in final column of the profile fitter output. Entry Meaning 3 Final line flux is >3 or < :1; initial value 4 Final wavelength is outside of specified window bounds 5 F WHM is < instrumental resolution (here 9 km s") or exceeds twice the window size M migrad failed to converge to a a set of phyiscially meaningful values within the number of iterations or down to the tolerance E minos failed to calculate an error matrix However, the code currently suffers from a number of limitations in its current incarnation. First, it is limited to single Gaussian fits. Several of the lines in the present study are blended Gaussians that had to be manually de-convolved using the “d-d” Operation in the IRAF task splat. Secondly, the code has no way of knowing a priori of the location of lines it is currently attempting to fit, as it acts sequentially in order of wavelength. Thus, line halos may overlap, and the local continuum estimates may include pixels from the previous or next line to be fitted. This can skew the fit, despite the use of weighted least squares to de-value those pixels in the fit. This necessitated a manual inspection of fitted profiles against their Observed counterparts, and in some case manual fitting with the Gaussian profile fitter “s-s” in splat. Finally, an area of continuing work is the inability of the code to generate reliable errors for the fitted parameters in every line detection. This was a main impetus in using the MINUIT code in place of a simplex method such as “amoeba” which does 239 not have such a mechanism for formal error determination. Currently only about a quarter of line detections return a set of error estimates. The code may fail to return error estimates because minos is unable to provide a positive definite error matrix after parameter fitting by migrad, or because it is prevented from doing so because during minimzation migrad has perturbed a parameter or parameters beyond the upper and lower “sanity” bounds. Both the numbers and quality of error values returned, in the sense that they agree with eyeball estimates of the wavelength and flux uncertainties from comparing the fitted profiles with the original spectra, have improved with sucessive incarnations of the program. However, due to the nature of the function being minimized here, or as yet undetermined error in the correct usage of the MINUIT routines, it cannot be said with certainty that the error estimates are completely accurate. Thus, it was decided to not employ the errors determined by MINUIT for the IC 418 data analysis. Nevertheless, as evidenced in Figure C.3, the code is highly successful in providing good fits to almost all of the line profiles with single Gaussian morphologies, in a bare fraction of the time that would be required to manually make such measurements. The profiles that we had to measure by hand were either double-peaked, or blended on wings of other lines. While the code is currently keyed to output from the RDGEN line detection routine, the input list flexibility in the free FORTRAN format, and the minimum of information required, makes it highly adaptable to the results of other procedures that provide wavelengths and FWHM initial estimates for lines to be fitted. The use of a seperate FORTRAN function for the actual function to be minimized, means that new functions, such as one allowing the simultaneous fitting 240 of two Gaussian profiles as an example, can be easily swapped in without disturbing the main body of the code. Because the input spectrum is drawn directly from an IRAF format spectrum, a minimum of work was necessary to utilize the code, whereas other automatic fitters might require additional preperatory steps to convert IRAF echelle spectra to some other format. C.5 Future Work It is desired that the code return accurate estimates for all parameters and their errors as often as possible. Therefore additional work will go into investigating procedures that will allow minos to calculate accurate error estimates for a majority of line detections, or determining if the nature of the particular function simply prohibits this. A number of values, such as the parameter adjustment step size for the flux, FW HM, and wavelength, and the number of iterations and fitting tolerance are cur- rently hard wired into the code. Although these parameters work fairly well in the function minimization portion of the code, it might be advantageous to allow users to be able to adjust these on an individual run basis, without recompiling the source code. Finally, multiple Gaussian fitting would be of great benefit in resolving line blends, which are still numerous even at the spectral resolution used here. 241 Appendix D EMILI User’s Manual Presented here is the user’s manual for the current public release version of EMILI (Version 4.0). It is intended as a stand-alone manual giving the EMILI user explicit insturctions as to the structure of input files, the format of the output files, and how to use the program. Greater detail relating to the EMILI logic and process can be found in § 3. D.1 Introduction and Purpose The EMILI code is designed to aid in the identification of weak emission lines, partic- ularly those weak recombination lines seen in high dispersion, signal to noise spectra. The program utilizes a three facet approach to Obtain this goal. First, we derive maximum utility from a large atomic transition database: Atomic Line List v2.04 (van Hoof 1999). Even for those transitions which lack values for atomic parameters, we can make rough estimates of line strengths, so that every transition can be con- 242 sidered as a possible ID for some observed line. Thus, many more transitions can be utilized here than could be considered manually, or that could be included in emission spectra models which rely on precise knowledge of such atomic parameters. Secondly, the code carries out time-consuming checks, which are usually done manually, such as searches for other multiplet lines, in a rapid and automated fashion free from observer bias. Finally, the program provides an easily understood ranking criteria to allow the user to readily chose among potential IDs. The code is not meant to model the emission spectra of its target Objects, but rather to aid in the identification of weak lines by providing many alternative IDs and by informing the user of the results of simple tests that can strengthen or weaken each IDs’ case. It is an efficient, automated version of the sort of traditional line identification methods used manually for decades. The code is written entirely in FORTRAN 77, for ease of interpretation by other users (maybe I speak too soon before you get a chance to actually LOOK at the code!). This distribution (number 4) contains all of the subroutines, default data files, and sample input and output, in a single zipped file. Please see Section D.3 for the installation and operation of the code. D.2 User Inputs EMILI recognizes the following user inputs, some required and some Optional, de- pending upon which facilities of the program the user wishes to utilize. 243 Required: Input Line List Optional: Matched Line List, Abundance Table In addition a Command/Parameter List is required to set global parameters and the names of input/ output files. D.2.1 Input Line List This is a list of unidentified lines that the user wants to identify. These lines must have Observed wavelengths between 3000-11000A, the range of a typical optical echelle spec- trum. The user specifies the Observed wavelength in A, the measurement/systemic error on either side Of the Observed value, also in A, the flux of the line with respect to H6, the FWHM in km/s, and the signal-to—noise of the line. Currently the final two parameters, FWHM and signal to noise, are not employed directly by the EMILI code, and are simply propagated into the output to give the user full knowledge of each line the code identifies. Placeholder numeric values can be employed for these parameters. Users submit a line list in the form of an ASCII text table, with the information for each unidentified line comprising one line in the table ended with a carriage return. Information is read in FORTRAN free format, with blank space separating each individual element on the line. Each element in the line is a FORTRAN “REAL” variable. The code currently accepts up to 1500 unidentified lines.

The Input Line List is read in by a statement in the main routine: em4.f. An example of a segment of an Input Line List is given in Figure D.1 (from the file ic418.in included with the distribution). D.2.2 Matched Line List This list includes manual identifications made for some of the unidentified lines in the Input Line List, usually for strong lines where the identifications are unambiguous.

EMILI can use this information in two ways: 1. Velocity Structure Correction: All the ions from elements Z S 30, are grouped together into five “bins” determined by ionization energy. The energy bounds of these bins are described in Table D.1. For each manual identification in the Matched Line List the velocity difference between the observed and laboratory transition is credited to the bin in which the source ion belongs. Recombination lines here are assumed to originate from the ion of the next higher ionization 246 state than that given in the spectroscopic notation, while collisionally excited and a few intercombination lines (those going to near-ground energy levels) are assumed to originate from the ionization state indicated by the notation. The average is then taken for each bin to establish a correction to be applied to the wavelength of each observed line, appropriate for the ion responsible for a tran- sition being tested as a possible match to that line. Thus, the systemic velocity and any ionization energy dependence of the expansion velocity of the object can be accounted for, if not already done beforehand in the data. Alternatively, this feature may be turned off, or manual values for the correction in each bin can be specified in the Command/Parameter List. The calculated or submitted values will be listed in the Full Output List (see Sect. D.5.1). . Ionic Abundances: To establish ionic abundances for all ions Z S 30 the pres- ence of certain “signature” lines (see Table D2) is sought in the Matched Line List. The relative strengths of these lines with respect to H6, if present in the spectra and recorded in this list, are used to establish ionization correction factor (ICF) values for each energy bin. These are roughly percentages that particular ions of that element take up of the entire abundance for that ele- ment. Ionic abundances are calculated from the bin for the ion, and the bin for its next lower stage of ionization. If the ion and the next lower stage ion have ionization potentials which reside in the same bin, the ICF value for that bin is multiplied by the abundance for the overall element listed in the Abundance Table. If they reside in different bins, then the average of the ICF values is 247 utilized to Obtain an ionic abundance through multiplication with the overall elemental abundance. Exceptions to these rules include the ionic abundance for ionized hydrogen, which is defined as the second bin ICF value times the hydrogen abundance, and the ionic abundances for first and completely ionized helium, which are defined as the are the overall helium abundance multiplied by the third and fourth ICF bin values respectively. If some of the signature lines are not present in the spectra or not recorded in the Matched Line List because their manual identification is ambiguous, the code will attempt to make reasonable guesses as to the ICF values from those lines that are present. Al- ternatively, the program can use a default set of reasonable ICF values, or a manually chosen set, as specified in the Command/Parameter List. The calcu- lated or default values will be recorded in the Full Output List. While the Matched Line List is optional, it must be present to utilize the ICF value and velocity correction calculation routines present in EMILI. If a Matched Line List is not used, one must specify the ICF and velocity correction values for each energy bin manually in the Command/Parameter List, or indicate in the Command/Parameter List the desire to use the default values. If included, the Matched Line List must take the form of an ASCII table, with the information about each specified line comprising one line of the table, and ended by a carriage return. These values must appear in the following order: 0 observed wavelength: A FORTRAN “REAL” variable, read in free format. 0 laboratory wavelength: Also a FORTRAN “REAL” variable, read in free format. 248 e the element notation: This is a three place character variable: FORTRAN “CHARACTER*3”. If the line is a forbidden line, the first character L11_11S_i1_ in- clude the “ [“ symbol. Non-forbidden lines or intercombination lines must start with the elemental notation. If the notation doesn’t reach three characters the remaining space should be filled with blank spaces. 0 a single blank space between arguments. e the ion notation: This is a six character variable: FORTRAN “CHARACTER*6”. The particular ion must be specified in Roman numeral format, with the stan- dard astronomical convention (i.e. Na I is neutral sodium, Na II is first ionized sodium etc...). If the line is an intercombination or forbidden line, the next char- acter immediately after the end of the Roman numeral specification must be the “J” character. If the entire information comprises less than six characters, blank spaces should be used to fill out the remaining places. 9 the flux with respect to H6: A FORTRAN “REAL” variable, read in free format. Users are limited to 50 matched lines in total. A line with a “Z” in its first character will be ignored by the code and does not count in the total number of matched lines that can be specified. No blank lines should exist in the file, and no special end of file indicators are necessary. The Matched Line List is read by the subroutine: matchlist4.f. An example Of a Matched Line List is given in Figure D.2 (from the file ic418.match included with the distribution). 249 5006. .467 .035 .915 .088 6583 3726 4958 6548 3728. 9530. 9068. .087 7319 7320. 7329. .754 7330 5875. .744 .499 .893 7135 4471 6730 6678. .745 3868 845 785 929 905 135 679 650 153 A 5006 6583. 3726. 4958. 6548. 3728. 9530. 9068. 7318. 7319. 7329. 7330. 5875. 7135. 4471. 6730. 6678. 3868. .843 450 032 911 050 815 600 600 920 990 66 73 640 773 486 816 152 750 B D.2.3 Abundance Table [0 [N [0 [O [N [O [S [S [O [O [O [0 He [Ar He [S He [Ne fl” III] II] II] III] II] II] III] III] II] II] II] II] I III] I II] I III] C Figure D.2 A Matched Line List (ic418.match).

One may specify an alternative abundance table in the Command/Parameter List. Values need not be with respect to hydrogen in a user supplied table, but in that case the numeric absolute abundance of hydrogen m be specified. This is necessary in order to normalize the other elemental abundances to the values used by the code to calculate the Template flux: (see Sect. D.4). EMILI will query you if a possible line ID does not have a matching abundance for its source ion. If an abundance table is specified, it must be in the format of an ASCII table, where information about individual elements must be placed on an individual line in the that table, one element per line. As usual, blank spaces must separate the information on each line, and each line must be ended by a carriage return. Each line must follow this order: The element, listed in standard notation, is a FORTRAN “CHARACTER*2” variable, followed by a blank space, followed by the value of the numeric abundance (read in as a free format FORTRAN “REAL” variable). Again, no end of file indicator is necessary, and the file must not include blank lines. The user must use elements which are on_ly_ Z S 30. The code currently can’t accept additional elements, and the transition database only has information for Z _<_ 30 elements. The abundance table is read into the program from the subroutine: matchlist4.f. For an example of a properly formatted Abundance Table, see abun.dat, included with the distribution. D.2.4 Command / Parameter List Here is where EMILI receives additional information for its calculations. This in- formation comes in two classes: input and output file names, and parameter speci- fications. Some of these parameters are required and some are optional. A sample command list: ic418.cmd is included with the distribution and is shown in Fig- ure D.3. The command list is a simple ASCII text table, with each line setting 251 a file name or parameter. Each line in the list consists of a command (A , L , M , I , 0 , D , T, N ,deplete , vel , icf) followed by various arguments. Each line may be no more than 60 characters in length, with individual arguments no longer than 15 characters, ended with a carriage return, one command per line. There may be up to 5 arguments depending upon the command. Commands may be placed in any order. A “Z” placed in the first column of any line will cause the code to skip that line. EMILI will warn before run time, if commands are repeated or if they conflict. The list is read in by the subroutine: openall4.f. A detailed description of each line in the example list (Figure D3), and a description of em possible command perturbation is given below. Required: 0 “L ic418.in” This specifies the name of the file for the Input Line List. 0 “T 10000” This sets the electron temperature to 10000 K. This is utilized in the calculation of Template Flux values. 0 “N 10000” This sets the electron density to 10000 electrons/cm3. This is also utilized in Template Flux calculations. 0 “I 10” This sets the instrumental resolution or natural line width, whichever is the largest, to 10 km/sec. This is utilized by the Multiplet Check, to determine if certain multiplet lines are too close to be fully resolved, and thus not searched for during that phase of the code’s calculations. 0 “vel+” Commands starting with “vel” indicate how the velocity structure 252 abun.dat ic418.match ic418.out ic418.dat 10000 10000 10 ic418.in FHZHDOEW t: I'D l—I ... icf+ Z deplete Fe 50 1 2 Figure D.3 A Command/Parameter List (ic418.cmd). should be calculated. The calculation may be carried out in three different ways, reflected in these three options: — “ve1+” Calculate the velocity correction for each energy bin (see Table 1) from the data of the Matched Line List. In order to use this option you must specify the file name for the Matched Line List with the “M” command. — ve1-: Assume that the observed lines already have been corrected to the nebular rest frame, and that there is no ionization energy dependent ve- 253 locity flow. This essentially sets the velocity correction value to zero for each energy bin. — “vel 99 99 99 89 89” Use the values specified as arguments as the ve- locity correction values (in km/ sec) to apply to an ion residing in each of the five bins. o “icf+” Commands beginning with “icf” specify how the ICF values for each bin should be specified and consequently used to calculate ionic abundances. These calculations may be performed in three different ways, specified here by three different formats: — “icf+” Calculate the ICF values for each bin from the data of the Matched Line List. If this option is used a Matched Line List must be specified with the “M” command. — “icf-” Use the default ICF values for each bin (see Table D.2). — “icf 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.3 0.1” Use the values specified as arguments as the ICF values to be applied to ions in each of the five energy bins. These must sum to one. Optional: 0 “M ic418.match” This specifies the name of the Matched Line List. If this command is not included, one must choose to use manual or default values for the velocity correction and ICF values for each bin. 254 “0 ic418.out” This specifies the name of the file to include the Full Output List. If the command is not included, an “.out” will be tacked onto the Input Line List name and used as the file name. “D ic418.dat” This specifies the name of the Summary List. If this command is not included, a “.dat” will be tacked onto the Input Line List name and used as the file name. “A abun . dat” This specifies the name for the Abundance Table. If not present in the Command/Parameter List the code will utilize the default table: abun.dat. “deplete Fe 50 1 2” Lines beginning with “deplete” tell EMILI to reduce the abundance of certain ions, after the ionic abundances have been calculated using the ICF values. This command may have up to four arguments specified in the following order: 1. The element to deplete. 2. The factor by which to deplete (negative values enhance). 3. The lower end of the range of ionization states to deplete. 4. The upper end of the range of ionization states to deplete. The following examples illustrate the options that EMILI will assume if specific arguments are missing: — “deplete Fe 50 1 2” No arguments are missing. This example would ask EMILI to deplete the abundances of Fe I and Fe II by a factor of fifty. 255 — “deplete Fe 50 1” Argument four is not present in the command. EMILI will assume that only the ion indicated by argument three will be depleted. Thus in this example only Fe I would be depleted by a factor of fifty. — “deplete Fe 50” Both arguments three and four are missing. EMILI will deplete all the ions of the indicated element. In this example all the ions of iron are depleted by a factor of fifty. Arguments one and two must be present for a valid command. D.3 Installing and Running the Code 1. One should un-compress and un-archive the file: em4.tar.gz into an empty directory. All of the subroutines and data files will be placed in that directory after un-archiving. No additional sub-directories are created. Follow these commands: >cd (name of the directory in which to place EMILI) >gunzip em4.tar.gz >tar -xvf em4.tar 2. In that directory, compile the code by executing the make file: ./em4.mak. This is included as part of the distribution. 256 >./em4.mak The code should compile and run, although in differing Unix platforms the various compilers may complain. On my Red Hat distribution with the generic “f7?” compiler, I receive no complaints. The make file assumes that a “f77” compiler exists on your machine. 3. Run the code from the command line: >./em4 cmdlist where cmdlist is the name of the file containing the Command/Parameter List. One should now see various things, starting with a welcome message, followed by a check of the Command/Parameter List for errors and proper format. If all is well, the program will echo to the screen the parameters you have entered, wait for a carriage return, then read in the transition and level information databases, before executing. If there are any “fatal” errors in the Command/Parameter List, you will need to correct them before the program will run. Don’t be alarmed if it takes a while to read in the transition database, as it includes 280,000 transitions in the specified optical range. EMILI will describe what it is doing every step of the way. You will know the program is working on the data the user provided when long “block” lists of information begin scrolling on your screen, one for each line in your Input Line List. The screen output is echoed into the Full Output List (see 257 Sect. D.5.1) along with the ICF and velocity correction values, either specified in the Command/Parameter List or calculated by the code, as well as the other parameters specified in the Command/Parameter List. When completed the program will drOp you back to the shell, where you can look at the Outputs (see Sect. D5) in your favorite text editor. Try it with the included command/ parameter and line lists: ic418.cmd, ic418.match, and ic418.in: >./em4 ic418.cmd Yields: Full Output List: ic418.out Summary List: ic418.dat On my 700 MHz notebook it takes about 5—6 minutes to process the 805 lines in the list: ic418.in. BA The EMILI Process The process begins by reading in the information about each unidentified line the user wishes to have EMILI identify from the Input Line List. If the user supplies a Matched Line List, and if the appropriate commands have been issued in the Command/Parameter List, the code will use the pre-identified lines to make Ionic Abundance calculations, and to determine if any Velocity Structure may be present, calculating any necessary correction values. If the Matched Line List is not sup- 258 plied, or if the ICF value and velocity structure commands have been set not to use the Matched Line List, the same calculations will be carried out with the default or manually specified values. For each unidentified line, the code searches the transition database for all lines within 200 km/sec, to account for the largest possible systemic velocity for nearby emission-line regions. These comprise the first set of putative IDs for that line. The Velocity Structure Correction (manually specified or computed by the code), appro- priate to each putative ID’s source ion, is then applied to the observed wavelength of the line being identified in order to bring the observed value into the nebular “rest frame” for the region where that ion resides. Further consideration is given only those putative IDs for which the residual wavelength difference after correction is less than (currently) five sigma of the observed value’s measurement error (transition wavelength uncertainties are currently not included in the error). For each surviving putative transition a Template F lua: with respect to H5 is calculated, which is a pre- dicted, order-of-magnitude estimate of the strength of that line, under the specified nebular conditions (temperature and density supplied by the user). This estimate is based on makes several simplifying assumptions about each transition: 1. Each transition has both a collisionally excited and recombination component to its strength. 2. The collisionally excited portion of the flux uses order of magnitude estimates of collision strengths and transition probabilities according to the type of tran- sition (electric dipole, magnetic dipole, electric quadrupole) it represents. The 259 collisional component assumes a simple two level atom, and allows for collisional de-excitation. 3. The recombination excited portion also uses a generic spontaneous transition coefficient, and is considered insensitive to either temperature or density, influ- enced mostly by the direct abundance of the source ion. It also assumes a two level atom and does not employ any branching ratios. Only transitions which are within a factor of 103 of the highest calculated template flux among all putative IDs considered at this stage are retained. This assumes that the transitions predicted to be the strongest are the most likely to actually manifest themselves in the spectrum as an observed line. Upon these remaining putative transitions a Multiplet Check is carried out. This involves looking for companion multiplet lines in the Input Line List, of the same or stronger transition type, which are approximately close both in wavelengths and expected observed flux. It is expected that the ratio of the products of the statisti- cal weights and Einstein coefficients between the putative ID transition and another transition from the same multiplet, should be fairly close to the ratio of their associ- ated lines’ observed flux ratio, within a factor of three. If the Einstein coefficients are not available for these transitions, or when comparing different types of transitions (such as magnetic dipole versus electric quadrupole) the code assumes that the ratio of observed fluxes should at least be within a factor of ten (or 10’4 when a weaker- type transition type is compared to a stronger type). Since multiplet lines arise from the same element and creation mechanism, they should also show the same residual 260 velocity differences between corrected observed values and laboratory wavelengths. This check is only carried out for lines originating from pure LS coupling levels. Finally, the code uses the residual wavelength difference between the corrected wavelength of observed line and the putative ID’s laboratory transition, the relative strength of its Template Flux with respect to other putative IDS surviving to this stage, and the results of the Multiplet Check to rank the potential IDs. This is done by assigning a numeric Identification Index (IDI) value, derived from these criteria, to each putative ID. See Table D3 for a detailed explanation of how this score is calculated. D.5 Outputs EMILI generates two output files, whose names the user may specify in the Com- mand/Parameter List: Outputs: Full Output List, Summary List We describe the Full Output List, and Individual Line Identification Within that list, and Summary List in the following sections. D.5.1 Full Output List The distribution comes with a sample Full Output List: ic418.out, which will be regenerated if the code is run with an unaltered command list: ic418.cmd. The out- put consists of five parts (the first four depicted in Figure D.4) listed in the following 261 Table D3 For each observed unidentified line, all putative IDs are ranked, by defining a “score” or IDI value for each transition. The IDI is awarded on the basis of the putative ID meeting the main criteria listed below. A lower score generally means a better ID. 1. Flux Basis (F) Putative ID template flux satisfies the following condition: F Condition 0 Exceeds computed fluxes of all other putative IDs by factor 2 10. 1 Within a factor of 10 of the largest putative ID template flux. 2 Within a factor of 100 of the largest putative ID template flux. 3 Within a factor of 1000 of the largest putative ID template flux. 2. Wavelength Basis (W) The residual wavelength difference (in km/s) between the corrected observed line’s wavelength and that for the putative ID is within a number of measurements sigmas (a) of the observed line’s corrected value: W Conditions 0 g 0.50 1 2 3 S 1.00 _<_ 1.50 3 2.00m (a) code currently set to include only transitions 0 S 5 3.

No elements were depleted in this run. order: 1.

Velocity Structure: The velocity correction in km / sec applied for all ions residing in each energy bin. 5. Individual Line Identifications: There then follow several “blocks” of informa- tion. The output contains one such block of information for each unidentified line in the Input Line List. This block includes an individual line’s potential identifications (up to 100 per each line), derived from the results of the checks carried out by the code. Following the first row, which reiterates the observed parameters of the line, each succeeding row lists a “putative” ID, drawn from the transition database, that the code has judged to be a possible ID. Each transition is listed in order of velocity residual between the corrected observed wavelength and the laboratory wavelength of the putative ID, starting with the greatest value to one side of the corrected observed wavelength, proceeding to the greatest value on the other side. An example of an identification of a line observed at 6347.19A after correction to the nebular rest frame, from the in- cluded Full Output List ic418.out is given in Figure D.5.

It also has a Template Flux (column F) nearly the same value as what was observed (top line, second numeric value). An additional multiplet line, Si II 6371.370A (column J), was found to correspond with another line in the Input Line List and indeed the code found the only other multiplet line it expected to find (column H). Thus, this putative ID did well (column I) with a low score and a primary (“A”) ranking. The first row contains the observed parameters of the particular line, including observed wavelength, flux with respect to H5, signal to noise, and FWHM in km/ sec, drawn from the Input Line List. There then follows a table of information, whose columns provide the following information: Columns: 0 A. The observed line’s wavelength corrected appropriately for the ion responsi- 265 ble for the putative ID transition in that row. A plus before the value indicates that the transition’s laboratory wavelength and the corrected observed wave- length are less than one sigma of the observed value’s measurement error apart. B. The putative ID’s laboratory wavelength. A “$” following the wavelength value indicates that the transition involves a non LS coupling level as either or both the origin and destination level. As mentioned, the Multiplet Check is not currently carried out for such putative IDs. An “*” following the wavelength value indicates that all of the multiplet lines involving the particular putative ID, are unresolvable because they are all within the natural line width or in- strumental resolution specified in the Command/Parameter List. These are collapsed into a statistically weighted single line of the wavelength proceeding the “*”. The Multiplet Check is not carried out for these lines. The code is currently limited to collapsing lines down if all of the multiplet lines are within the instrumental resolution/natural line width. Thus, if two of six lines of a particular multiplet, could be blended, the code considers each of those two as a separate ID. This will be a focus of continuing work in the next version of the code. C. The spectroscopic notation for the putative ID. D. An internal reference number for this transition in the Atomic Line List v2.04. This integer, along with the integer in column E, can be used with an auxiliary reader included with the EMILI distribution (see Sect. D.5.4) to ob- tain information about the electronic configuration, term notation, and angular 266 momentum j values belonging to the levels this transition traverses. E. A second internal reference number for the transition. F. The Template F luz calculated for the putative ID. G. The residual wavelength difference, measured in km/sec, between the cor- rected observed value of the line, and the laboratory wavelength of the putative ID. H. The Multiplet Check statistics, with the numbers of expected multiplet lines, followed after the slash by the number of lines found to have potential matches in the Input Line List, not including the putative line itself. I. The EMILI assigned IDI value (see Table D.3) which serves as a measure of the “goodness” of the match based upon the criteria mentioned above, with lower numbers indicating better IDs. EMILI also assigns a letter “A,B,C, or D” to indicate primary, secondary, tertiary, and fourth ranked identifications, based upon the relative numeric scores. J. Here is where supporting results from the Multiplet Check are noted. Ad- ditional multiplet lines’ laboratory wavelengths that were found to correspond with other lines in the Input Line List are listed here along with the residual velocity difference with those observed lines, for comparison with the same value in column E. Up to three lines, if they can be found, will be displayed here, listed in order of decreasing observed strength. 267 In the final row of each individual line identification, beginning with a “>” and ending with a “<”, in the location where a rank would go in the column I, is listed the transition with the strongest calculated Template Flux in the anulus between the initial EMILI acceptance radius and twice that radius away from the observed wavelength. As mentioned, EMILI is currently set to accept only those transitions within 50 of the observed wavelength for template flux calculations, where a is the measurement uncertainty of the line being ID’d. Thus, this row includes the predicted strongest template flux transition in the region 5 — 100 away from the wavelength for that line in the Input Line List. The putative ID has no bearing on the rank of the other putative IDs (no IDI score is assigned), but the multiplet check is carried out. This was primarily put in to handle occurrences where the transition’s laboratory wavelength in the database appears to be highly suspect (such as is the case for [Ne III] A3868A), and to allow them to be considered as additional alternative IDs. D.5.3 Summary List This file contains a summary of the EMILI results (see Figure D6 and the included file ic418.dat). For each unidentified line subjected to testing by the code, the corre- sponding primary ID or IDs, indicated by an “A” in column G in the Full Output List along with their laboratory wavelengths, are listed adjacent to that line’s measured attributes (observed wavelength and flux with respect to H6). 268 4058.29 4.28-05 I N II 4058.16, 4065.23 5.53-05 I Fe III 4065.25, 4067.33 3.63-05 I [Fe III] 4067.30, 4068.67 1.88-02 I [S II] 4068.60, 4069.63 2.03-04 I 0 II 4069.62, 4069.89 2.03-04 | 0 II 4069.88, 4072.15 3.3E-04 | 0 II 4072.15, 4074.51 1.08-04 I C II 4074.48, 4075.89 4.48-04 I 0 II 4075.86, 4076.37 7.68-03 I [S II] 4076.35, 4078.81 5.63-05 I 0 II 4078.84, 4079.64 2.53-05 I [Fe III] 4079.70, 4082.32 5.38-05 I N II 4082.27, 4083.87 4.83-05 I [Fe II] 4083.78, 0 II 4083.90, 4084.67 4.73-05 | [CO IV] 4084.59, 4085.10 7.6E-05 | 0 II 4085.11, 4087.15 4.53-05 | 0 II 4087.15, 4089.29 1.13-04 I 0 II 4089.29, 4092.92 3.23-05 | 0 II 4092.93, 4093.92 4.93-05 I N III 4093.68, Na I 4093.88, 4095.65 4.23-05 I 0 II 4095.64, 4096.51 2.8E-05 | [Fe III] 4096.61, A B C Figure D.6 A segment from a Summary List (ic418.dat). From left to right the columns are: A. a unidentified line’s observed wavelength B. that line’s measured flux with respect to H6 C. the EMILI primary IDs (labeled “A” in the Full Output List) associated with the line. D.5.4 Reader A separate program is included with the distribution which reads the EMILI out- put and provides more detailed information regarding the transitions the user may choose as IDs then collating the information in an additional output file. Specifically, this reader will take a EMILI Full Output List, marked-up according to a simple scheme, and extract the information for user-chosen putative IDs, using the previ- ously mentioned internal reference numbers found in the output, then tabulate it in a ASCII text file. These internal reference numbers provide information regarding the transition’s atomic parameters and type. This allows for more rapid EMILI-derived 269 identifications, without generating gigantic lists of such information in the actual EMILI output files during run-time. To use the reader, the user simply marks on the EMILI Full Output List an “it” in the first space of the any row containing a putative ID of interest. This may be done for as many lines and for as many putative IDs for those lines as the user wishes. Entries will be generated in a user-named file. The routine will reference the transition database and provide information about these transitions in the same file. For instance, suppose I were to mark an “*” in the first space of the row containing the putative ID that begins with: *+ 6347 . 15 I 6347. 110 Si II 940585992 262 The reader would generate a corresponding entry in the reader output file: *+ 6347.19 47.7 5.1e-4 83.3 2A Si II 6347.11 28 332. (IS) .48 . . . where from left to right are observed wavelength, FWHM, flux, and S/ N (as supplied in the Input Line List), then the ion, accepted rest (laboratory) wavelength, the upper and lower energy level terms and electron configurations, and finally the upper and lower total angular momentum j values for the levels traversed by the particular putative lD transition (entry is truncated here for space reasons). If additional IDS are marked for the same emission lines, these will align in the output file with the transition information for the first ID that the reader encounters in the individual line output lists. To invoke the reader simply compile at the command prompt: >./emread.mak 270 then run at the command prompt: >./emread arg1 arg2 where “arg1” is the name of the marked-up EMILI Full Output List and “arg2” is name chosen by the user for the results file. D.6 Future Improvements In future editions of the code, we plan on making three major improvements. 1. Broader Line List: A still larger and more comprehensive transition database is currently being constructed (Atomic Line List v2.05), which will expand the transition list to include all elements Z s 36 (up to all fourth row elements), and will include improved Coulomb calculations of transition probabilities. 2. Cross Correlation: Presently the code does not seek corroborating information about a particular putative ID, from the putative IDs of other unidentified lines, beyond those comparisons made during the Multiplet Check. Future editions of the code will compare the expected line strength ratio between different lines of differing multiplets with the observed value, and compare the velocity residuals between putative IDs of the same ion and creation mechanism. 3. Multiple Iterations: We plan on making the code iterative, using the best IDs from an initial run to re-calculate and improve the accuracy the ionic abun— dances and velocity structure corrections, for use in successive runs. 271 We will also be attempting to optimize the weighting given to each component (residual wavelength difference, relative template flux, and multiplet check results) used to construct the final score and subsequent rank for each putative ID for a partic- ular unidentified line. This in order to ascribe more importance to those components which might be more or less appropriate for differing observing parameters (i.e. less emphasis on the residual wavelength difference for lower dispersion spectra etc.). D.7 Contact Information This code is always evolving, and as such is still undergoing testing and revision as I write this, so please pardon the dust (a.k.a. numerous test comments scattered throughout its length). I cannot guarantee that the code is entirely “bug-free” yet (caveat emptor). However I hope you are able to use the code with as little trouble as possible, and that it provides you with interesting and accurate results. I am most happy to answer any questions and would appreciate reports of any errors you believe the code is making. Suggested improvements are always welcome. sharpeera.msu.edu For further details and updates please stop by the EMILI web page at: http://www.pa.msu.edu/people/sharpee/emili.html 272 Appendix E IC 418 Line List Here is presented the IC 418 Line List. Columns are defined as follows: (1) The observed wavelength of the line corrected to the nebular rest frame for ionized hydrogen. (2) The full width at half maximum intesity (FWHM) of the line in km 3*. (3) The observed intensity of the Line, F (A), with respect to the observed intensity of H6 (F(H6) = 1.31 x 10‘11 erg cm‘3 S”) in units of F()\) * 100/F(H6). (4) The de-reddened intensity of the line, I (A), with respect to the de- reddened intensity of H6 (I(H6) = 2.87 X 10‘11 erg cm‘3 8‘1) in units of I(A) ... 100/I(H6). (5) The signal-to-noise (S/ N) of the line. A value of 99999.0 indicates that no S/ N was calculated for this line because it wasn’t detected by RDGEN 273 initially, or was a member of a line blend for which S / N of the components were not calculated. The EMILI IDI value and rank for the ID transition, where available. An “*” in this column indicates an IDI value greater than 9. A “<” in this column indicates that the ID was the strongest predicted transition outside of, but in the vicinity of, the initial EMILI search radius. IDs not chosen from the EMILI output have no data in this column. The source ion of the ID transition. The tabulated wavelength for the ID transition. All wavelengths are air wavelengths, and are drawn primarily from the Atomic Line List v2.04. Exceptions include non-EMILI ID’d He I lines, H I Balmer and Paschen lines above an upper level of n = 40, and an additional few cases noted by a “I”. A “*” following the wavelength indicates that the line is a blend of all the closely spaced members of the same multiplet, and is a statistically weighted average of their wavelengths. A “?” after the wavelength indicates a questionable but possible ID based upon the EMILI results and the literature. The velocity difference between the tabulated wavelength of the ID tran- sition and the observed wavelength of the line. This value is determined from: A—Ao 6V 2 c kms 274 (10) The spectroscopic term notation and electron configuration of the lower level of the ID transition. Term notation is either in the LS or one of two intermediate coupling schemes: 0 LS Coupling: (25+1L) where S is the spin of the valance electrons, and L the total orbital angular momentum of those electrons. For example: 2P0 = 2P0 in the table. An example of an ID transition with a lower level based on this coupling is O II A4393.483. o LK Coupling: (252+1[K]) where S2 is the spin of the external excited electron(s), and K the coupled value of the total orbital angular mo- menta of the core and external electron(s) (L), in turn coupled with the total spin of the core electrons. This is distinguished from the JIK coupling by the inclusion of the L value (in the usual LS spec- troscopic notation a.k.a. P for L21, D for L=2 etc...) at the end of the electron configuration. For example: 2[5/2] = 2[5 / 2] in the table. An example of an ID tran- sition with an upper level based upon this coupling is N II A4432.735 o J1K Coupling: (232+1 [K I) where S2 is the spin of the external excited electron(s), and K here is the value of the total angular momentum of the core term (J1) coupled with the orbital angular momentum of the external electron(s). For example: 2[5]° = 2[5]o in the table. An example of an ID tran- sition with an upper level based on this scheme is Ne II A4391.991. 275 (11) The electron configuration takes the form of, as an example, 232.2p4 in the table which is equivalent to 2322p4. Core electrons and extrenal electrons may be seperated in this scheme by a core term, in parenthesis and in LS coupling, followed by an extrenal electron or term (also in LS coupling). Values enclosed in “<” and “>” in the core term indicate its total angular momentum J value. Iron lines are all based on LS coupling and employ specific alphanumeric level identifiers in place of LS scheme notation. The spectroscopic term notation and electron configuration of the upper level of the transition. The total angular momentum j value for the lower state of the ID tran- sition. A “****” here indicates that the level is a blend of several closely spaced j values, or that the line was a blend of several transitions from the same level, such as a blended multiplet line indicated by an “*” following the wavelength in column (7). The total angular momentum j value for the upper state of the transition. The EMILI multiplet check results, in the sense that if “5/ 1” appears in the table, 1 out of 5 lines expected to be present from the same multiplet in the line list, were matched by the code. EMILI did not carry out the check for transtions from Non-LS coupled levels, lines from blended levels, or lines judged by EMILI to blends of all multiplet transitions from the 276 same upper level. The check was also not done for non-EMILI IDs. 277 c3 .... .... .NN N .N N Ne. 83%... :1 < N INN N23 ENNN EN 8988 NS .... .... .NN NN .N N 9o- Sexes” a: < N NNNN 223 Nam-Nd NAN NNN.§N o3 .... .... .NN NN .N N Nd- v8.88 a: < N SEN NNNNN NNNNN EN 84.8% NS .... .... .8 ON .N N 3.
