Central Stars of Galactic Planetary Nebulae II New OB-type and emission-line stars

Context. There are more than 3000 confirmed and probable known Galactic planetary nebulae, but central star spectroscopic information is available for only 13% of them. Aims. We undertook a spectroscopic survey of central stars of PNe to identify their spectral types. Methods. We performed spectroscopic observations, at low resolution, with the 2-m telescope at CASLEO, Argentina. Results. We present the spectra of 46 central stars of PNe, most of them are OB-type and emission-line stars.

Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae: New spectral classifications and catalogue

Context. There are more than 3000 true and probable known Galactic Planetary Nebulae (PNe), but only for 13% of them there is central star spectroscopic information available. Aims. To contribute to the knowledge of central stars of planetary nebulae and star evolution. Methods. We undertook a spectroscopic survey of central stars of PNe in low resolution and compiled a large list of central stars for which information was dispersed in the literature. Results. We complete a catalogue of 492 true and probable CSPN and we provide a preliminary spectral classification for 45 central star of PNe, This made it possible to update the proportion of CSPN with atmosphere poor in hydrogen with regard to the whole in at least 30% and contribute with statistical information that allow to infer the origin of H-poor stars.
