Scientific paper

Recent spectrographic studies of extended red emission (ERE) seen in the 0.6 to 0.9 micron spectral region in many reflection nebulae have shown fluorescence by amorphous hydrogenated carbon to be the most probable cause of the ERE. Spectrographic observations were performed on the nebulae NGC 2023 and NGC 7023, using the intensified Reticon scanner (IRS) of Kitt Peak National Observatory on the N0-2 0.9 mm telescope. Charge coupled device (CCD) images of NGC2023 and NGC 7023 were obtained with the CfA CCD detector on the 0.6 m telescope of the Whipple Observatory. Results are discussed.
