Thinking about the science behind this. It's my understanding that Wolf-Rayet stars are superheated O3 rich giants, creating nebulas from swirling superheated stellar winds, such as can be found in SH2-308, Thors' Helmet and NGC 2020 in the LMC.
So I'm curious as to why the O3 signal is so weak here.
Maybe that's a question for the Astrophysicists here to answer? 
Well done.  |
Thanks Andy. No I don't have an RCW catalogue unfortunately.
These Wolf Rayet objects though are quite interesting imaging targets.
Greg.
