Scientific paper

The profile of a recombination line emitted by a model planetary nebula, represented as an unresolved, expanding, optically-thin shell source has been calculated. Curves giving the half-width of the profile in terms of the thermal Doppler width and the expansion velocity are presented for two simple expansion models. Since in radio astronomy Gaussian profiles are sometimes fitted to observed spectral data, curves of the corresponding widths of best-fitting Gaussians are also given.
