Close Binaries and the Abundance Discrepancy Problem in Planetary Nebulae

Close Binaries and the Abundance Discrepancy Problem in Planetary Nebulae

Motivated by the recent establishment of a connection between central star binarity and extreme abundance discrepancies in planetary nebulae, we have carried out a spectroscopic survey targeting planetary nebula with binary central stars and previously unmeasured recombination line abundances. We ha...
