Abstract

Hu1-2 is an elliptical/bipolar high-excitation planetary nebula with [NII]-enhanced microstructures and two bipolar knots. We present optical and near-IR narrow band images, and high-resolution long-slit spectra of Hu1-2 that allow us to make a detailed description of its unusual morphology and internal kinematics. The data also reveal that the bipolar knots probably represent bow-shocks associated to igh-velocity outflows that are irradiated from the central star.
