New insights into the WR nebula M1-67 with SITELLE.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present a detailed study of M1-67, a well-known nebula around the population I Wolf-Rayet star WR 124 (WNh 8), based on datacubes obtained with the imaging Fourier transform spectrometer SITELLE at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. This allowed us to reconstruct detailed emission-line ratio maps that highlight clear orthogonal features from a chemical abundance point of view, a complete extinction map, as well as the electron density and temperature structures. In addition to this information, velocity maps were obtained shedding light on the bow shock structure due to the high velocity of WR124, qualified as a runaway star, which is about +190 km s–1 relative to the local interstellar medium. Interaction between the latter structure and spherical and non-spherical outburst could explain the global morphology of M1-67.
