Scientific paper

A series of deep images of NGC 2371/2 was obtained through a narrow-band [O III] filter centered at 5007 Angstroms with the Steward Observatory 61 inch Kuiper telescope and Mont4K camera. These images were combined to determine the basic morphology of the nebula as part of an ongoing research program in planetary nebula dynamics. While white-light and true-color images of 2371/2 show a pair of shock fronts separated from a nearly spherical core region, the deep [O III] images show a broad range of filamentary structures permeating the entire nebula. Follow up observations in other wavelengths and studies utilizing high resolution spectroscopy to determine radial velocity profiles will be used to determine the full three-dimensional structure of the object. The authors wish to acknowledge the support of the Steward Observatory of the University of Arizona for use of their telescope and camera.
