The Commission on Science and Information Technology (CTCI) of the Brazilian Astronomical Society (SAB) is tasked with assisting the Society on issues of astronomical data management, from its handling and the management of data centres and networks,
to technical aspects of the archiving, storage and dissemination of data. In this paper we present a summary of the results of a survey recently conducted by the Commission to diagnose the status of several data-related issues within the Brazilian astronomical community, as well as some proposals derived therefrom.
We present the detection and imaging of the spatially resolved shell of nova V382 Vel with SOAR adaptive optics module (SAM). The shell was observed in narrow band filters H$alpha$ and [O III] 5007AA, revealing different structures in each filter. Th
e shells angular diameter obtained was $9.9$ arcsec, equivalent to $2.8 times 10^{17}$ cm, using the distance of $1.79$ kpc obtained by Gaia mission. The upper limit for total shell mass derived from recombination lines is $M_{s} = 1.4 times 10^{-4}$ M$_{odot}$. Our photoionization models indicate an accretion disk with $T_d=60,000$ K and L=$10^{36}$ erg/s as main ionizing source.
