Scientific paper

The bright proplyds in the Orion nebula (M42) are the result of accretion disks around low-mass stars in the Trapezium cluster being photoevaporated by the ultraviolet radiation from the O stars in the cluster. Henney & O'Dell (1999) presented high resolution optical emission line spectroscopy of four proplyds and demonstrated a correlation between line width and ionization potential, indicative of acceleration in an ionization-stratified photoevaporating flow. Here I present previously unpublished supplementary material concerning 177-341, one of the proplyds in the Henney & O'Dell study.
