Comment: Good start but unfortunately i can't find any mention of the Planetary nebula in your mentioned astronomy journal. Also please try to improve your grammar skills Abdullah1099 (talk) 12:04, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Jonckheere 900 (J900) is a Bipolar planetary nebula discovered in 1912 by French astronomer R. Jonckheere using the Lille University Observatory. Although he initially thought it was a double star, The Hubble Space Telescope later determined the object was not a double star.[3][1]
J900 has a distance (D) ranging from 3.89 kpc to 6 kpc with an average value of ~4.6 kpc,[4][5][6] which predicts that the ionization front is located at ~8.5 arcseconds away from the central star. The nebula has a temperature floor of ~829 K, which is derived from an H2 temperature of 755±36 K.[7]
The J900 nebula was detected to have [Kr III] and [Se IV] lines.[8] Forbidden Lines of Kr, Rb, and Xe were detected in the BOES spectrum while the F line was detected using the mid-IR Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph.[9] The nebula features H2 lines emitted from both a ~670 K warm and a ~3200 K hot reigon. Emission lines with calculated Te and ne include: the [O III] line with Te = 11,600±1160 K and ne = 3600±1160 cm-3,[10] the [S III] line with Te = 13,000 K, the [N II] line with Te = 11,500 K, the [O II] line with Te = 10,300 K and ne = 3980 cm-3, the [S II] line with Te = 7800 K and ne = 3600 cm-3, and the [Ar IV] line with ne = 8240 cm-3.[11]
A unnamed faint field star located roughly 11 arcseconds away from the central star is right next to J900, giving the illusion of a double system.
Central star
[edit]The star has an effective temperature of ~134,800 K calculated using the observed I(He II 4686 Å)/I(H β) ratio.[12] The star evolved from an initial mass of ~2.0 M⊙.[13] The central star has a visual magnitude of 17.8 mag.
