New observational data on the spectra of thirteen planetary nebulae and their nuclei are given. New nuclei of the WOLF-RAYET type containing both nitrogen and carbon have been found. Previously adopted WOLF-RAYET designations have been modified. Nuclei of planetary nebulae, despite their occasional resemblance to WOLF-RAYET stars, should not be associated with the latter.

The author reviews the new possibilities of study of novae (novoids) and supernovas which will result from orbital telescope observations in the regions λ 912 - λ 3000 and λ < 20 Å. The possibilities concern in particular relative abundances, coronal effects, excitation mechanisms, temperature determinations and ionisations. [less ▲]

1. The spectra of several absorption O-type stars showing vestiges of Wolf-Rayet emission have been investigated from λ 3300 to λ 6700. The absorption spectrum consists mainly of H, He II, He I,O III,O IV, N III, N IV, and Si IV. The emission lines show a P Cygni character and are confined to H, He I, and a few transitions of He II, N III, N IV, N V, C III, and Si IV. The location of the expanding shell giving rise to the emission and absorption lines is estimated. 2. The visual spectrum of P Cygni reveals strong Fe III lines originating from metastable levels (dilution effect). Lines of other elements show a peculiar selectivity of the emission lines. The spectra of three other P Cygni type stars (Z Canis Majoris, BD+47°3487, and BD+11°4073) are described, especially in connection with the phenomena arising in expanding shells. RY Scuti shows a strong system of forbidden [Fe III] lines, and the variations in the spectrum of this star are discussed. 3. The ultraviolet region of the spectrum of ξ Tauri shows several sets of absorption lines (H, He, and ionized metals) arising from the reversing layer and from various layers in the surrounding shell. The a5D - 4p5P0 multiplet of Fe III was the most conspicuous feature in the visual region of γ Cassiopeiae in March, 1940. New data are given for the spectra of several other stars with extended shells (MtW 143, HD 218393, HD 160529, and HD 190073). A group of stars showing forbidden [Fe II] lines is discussed (WY Geminorum, W Cephei, B 1985, B 5481, and HD 45677) ; and new [Fe II] multiplets are found in the ultraviolet region of these objects. 4. The spectra of four binary systems showing simultaneously an M-type spectrum and forbidden lines of high excitation are described in detail. The spectroscopic phenomena accompanying the recent outburst of Z Andromedae are discussed; the continuous absorption in the shell plays an important role in the relative intensities of the emission and absorption components of the P Cygni type lines. The two stars AX Persei and CI Cygni have very similar bright-line spectra, of which the nebular part shows a very high excitation; besides H, He I, and He II, the strongest lines are due to [Fe VII] and [Ne V], and there is good evidence in favor of [Fe X]. The temperature of the nucleus exciting these nebular lines must be of the order of 150,000°, or more. Another multiple object of lower excitation is R Aquarii, and new spectroscopic data show the occultation effect of the nebula by the TiO atmosphere of the late-type component. There is good reason to beUeve that the binary nature of a star stimulates the process of shell formation. [less ▲]

I. New observational results.-AX Persei in January and February, 1942, showed the lines of [Fe V] and [Fe VI] with considerable intensity. Other interesting changes in the spectrum have been recorded. RW Hydrae is interesting because of the absence of fluorescence excitation in O III and because the He I singlets (2p1P0 - nd1D) are relatively strong. Z Andromedae has returned to a stage similar to that observed in August, 1940. T Coronae Borealis has bright Fe II, but the absence of [Ne V] shows that the excitation is lower than in Z Andromedae. Z Canis Majoris has been observed near maximum light. Several Of and W stars have also been observed. II. Excitation mechanisms in shells.-The importance of fluorescence excitation is discussed and is applied to the problem of selectivities among emission lines of peculiar stars. Of particular interest are the ratios of singlet to triplet intensities of He I. The great relative strength of the singlets in objects of low excitation, like RW Hydrae, is attributed (a) to the predominance of fluorescence over recombination and (b) to the presence of high radiation density in the nebulous shells of the singlet series (1s1S - np1P0) of He I. Similar considerations are applied to unusual intensities of emission lines in Of shells and in P Cygni or Be shells. The influence of departures of the exciting radiation from that of a black body is discussed for novae and for certain long-period variables. When fluorescence is produced by strong ultraviolet emission lines, as in the case of Bowen's mechanism for O III, the gradient in the velocity of expansion of a shell produces important modifications. This may account for absence of the Bowen mechanism in Wolf-Rayet stars and in other rapidly expanding shells. [less ▲]

The major application of MALDI-TOTOF mass spectrometry in clinical microbiology is the bacterial identification based on the analysis of all their proteins (ribosomal and membrane-associated proteins). This technology allows the identification of most of bacteria within a few minutes. The method is fast, accurate, reliable and cost-effective by comparison to conventional phenotypic techniques. Other applications of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry are still under development, as the detection of bacterial toxins or resistance mechanisms to antimicrobial agents. [less ▲]
