Spectropolarimetry and Radiative Transfer Modeling of Three Proto-Planetary Nebulae
We measured the spectrum of polarization for three proto-planetarynebulae (PPNs), IRAS 17411-2411, IRAS 08005-2356, and IRAS 04296+3429,and made model calculations with the dust-scattering Monte Carlo codeDIRTY and the dust emission code 2Dust. We show that high levels ofpolarization in these PPNs correlate with extreme asymptotic giantbranch (AGB) superwind mass-loss rates in excess of 10-4Msolar yr-1. All three objects show evidence forevacuated lobes cleared by collimated fast winds, and two indicate asignificant equatorial mass enhancement. Our best-fit models requiresharply peaked grain size distributions, suggesting that most of thelight is being scattered by grains of a characteristic size in IRAS17441-2411 and IRAS 08005-2356. IRAS 17441-2411 and IRAS 08005-2356 havelobes with wide opening angles, perhaps produced by deflection of apolar jet from an accreting companion by the AGB superwind. Modeling thespectropolarimetry of IRAS 04296+3429 indicates a point-symmetric,multipolar morphology in the PPN phase. The modeling ofspectropolarimetry and other observations of PPNs provides a powerfulway to constrain circumstellar morphology and dust parameters.

We publish 1879 radial velocities of stars distributed in 105 fields of4^{\circ} \times 4^{\circ}. We continue the PPO series \cite[(Fehrenbachet al. 1987;]{Feh87} \cite[Duflot et al. 1990, 1992 and 1995),]{Du90}using the Fehrenbach objective prism method.
