Scientific paper

We propose a pilot spectroscopic study of the extended PNe NGC2392 (classical spherical), and NGC2346 (classical bipolar) using the IRS spectrograph on board Spitzer. The analysis will be done using CUBISM, a tool developed for constructing spectral cubes, maps, and arbitrary aperture 1D spectral extractions from IRS data. The main goal of this proposal is to study the ionization structure of a PN and test whether the assumptions of homogeneity often used in the literature is valid, and to study the spatial behavior of dust features across an extended planetary nebula. This pilot study will be of great value for the interpretation of observations of the abundances and PAH emission features in the wide range of objects that are known to show these bands both in the near universe and in galaxies far away.
