Central stars that exhibit emission lines in their spectra, indicating stellar mass-loss allow to study the evolution of planetary nebulae in action. Emission line central stars constitute about 10 \% of all central stars. Half of them are practically hydrogen-free Wolf-Rayet type central stars of the carbon sequence, [WC], that show strong emission lines of carbon and oxygen in their spectra. In this contribution we address the weak emission-lines central stars (wels). These stars are poorly analyzed and their hydrogen content is mostly unknown. We obtained optical spectra, that include the important Balmer lines of hydrogen, for four weak emission line central stars. We present the results of our analysis, provide spectral classification and discuss possible explanations for their formation and evolution.}, language = {en} } @misc{GuerreroChuHamannetal.2011, author = {Guerrero, Mart{\´i}n A. and Chu, You-Hua and Hamann, Wolf-Rainer and Oskinova, Lida and Sch{\"o}nberner, Detlef and Todt, Helge Tobias and Steffen, Matthias and Ruiz, Nieves and Gruendl, Robert A. and Blair, William P.}, title = {Ablation and wind mass-loading in the born-again planetary nebula A 30}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {563}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-41234}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-412341}, pages = {2}, year = {2011}, abstract = {We present XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of the born-again planetary nebula A 30. These X-ray observations reveal a bright unresolved source at the position of the central star whose X-ray luminosity exceeds by far the model expectations for photospheric emission and for shocks within the stellar wind. We suggest that a "born-again hot bubble" may be responsible for this X-ray emission. Diffuse X-ray emission associated with the petal-like features and one of the H-poor knots seen in the optical is also found. The weakened emission of carbon lines in the spectrum of the diffuse emission can be interpreted as the dilution of stellar wind by mass-loading or as the detection of material ejected during a very late thermal pulse.}, language = {en} }
