Abstract
We present high spatial resolution observations of the CO emission at 2.6 mm in the protoplanetary nebula M1-92 (Minkowski's Footprint), obt ained with the Plateau de Bure interferometer. The total mass correspo nding to the CO measured intensity is estimated to be large, of about 0.1-0.2 solar masses. The cartography is particularly rich and reveali ng. From the measured position-velocity distribution of brightness, we conclude that a strong dynamical interaction between the AGE and post -AGE winds is present.
