Two types of X-ray sources are mostly found in planetary nebulae (PNe): point sources at their central stars and diffuse emission inside hot bubbles. Here we describe these two types of sources based on the most recent observations obtained in the framework of the Chandra Planetary Nebula Survey, ChanPlaNS, an X-ray survey targeting a volume-limited sample of PNe. Diffuse X-ray emission is found preferentially in young PNe with sharp, closed inner
shells. Point sources of X-ray emission at the central stars reveal magnetically active binary companions and shock-in stellar winds.
Detection and Characterization of Wolf-Rayet stars in M81 with GTC/OSIRIS spectra and HST images
(2015)
Here we investigate a sample of young star clusters (YSCs) and other regions of recent star formation with Wolf-Rayet (W-R) features detected in the relatively nearby spiral galaxy M81 by analysing long-slit (LS) and Multi-Object Spectroscopy (MOS) spectra obtained with the OSIRIS instrument at the 10.4-m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC). We take advantage of the synergy between GTC spectra and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images to also reveal their spatial localization and the environments hosting these stars. We finally discuss and comment on the next steps of our study.

Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars lose copious amounts of mass and momentum through dense stellar winds. The interaction of these outflows with their surroundings results in highly structured and complex circumstellar environments, often featuring knots, arcs, shells and spirals. Recent improvements in computational power and techniques have led to the development of detailed, multi-dimensional simulations that have given new insight into the origin of these structures, and better understanding of the physical mechanisms driving their formation. We review three of the main mechanisms that shape the outflows of WR stars:
• interaction with the interstellar medium (ISM), i.e., wind-ISM interactions;
• interaction with a stellar wind, either from a previous phase of evolution or the wind from a companion star, i.e., wind-wind interactions;
• and interaction with a companion star that has a weak or insignificant outflow (e.g., a compact companion such as a neutron star or black hole), i.e.,wind-companion interactions.
We also highlight the broader implications and impact of these circumstellar structures for related phenomena, e.g., for X-ray binaries and Gamma-ray bursts.
