The Molecular Exoskeleton of the Ring-like Planetary Nebula NGC 3132

The Molecular Exoskeleton of the Ring-like Planetary Nebula NGC 3132

We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) mapping of ^12 CO J = 2 → 1, ^13 CO J = 2 → 1, and CN N = 2 → 1 emission from the ring-like planetary nebula NGC 3132, one of the subjects of JWST Early Release Observation near-infrared imaging. The ∼5″ resolution SMA data demonstrate that the Southern Ring’s ma...
