Abstract:
NGC 6445 is a planetary nebula that has been the target of only a few specific studies.
In this work, our aim is to complement the studies carried out until now, analyzing the
spatial distribution of the optical emission of several atomic lines from this nebula. With
this purpose, the central part of the nebula was mapped with multiple optical spectra
obtained with the use of narrow slits in different positions of the nebula. The observations
were made with the Cassegrain spectrograph attached to the 1.6 m telescope at the Pico
dos Dias Observatory. With this data, we obtained the traditional integrated spectrum
and the spatially resolved spectrum. With these data, we studied not only of the average
physical and chemical properties of this object, but also their two dimensional distribution.
