Abstract
The possibility of using broad absorption lines (on the order of 100 km/sec or more) of the Mg II 2800 doublet, formed in regions of planetary nebulae with fast collimated flows and, probably, manifested against the background of the short-wavelength wing of the Balmer continuum of the spectrum as indicators of such flows, is discussed. For this purpose, using existing analytical (dynamical) models of mass-loaded isothermal flows and numerical (photoionization) models of planetary nebulae, theoretical line profiles are calculated in the Sobolev approximation and their dependence on certain parameters is shown. An advantage of the proposed method consists in the possibility of revealing fast flows in faint, star-like planetary nebulae.
