The population of Planetary Nebulae in the Milky Way
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 October 2010
Abstract
Extensive surveys of the Milky Way have provided a global view of the population of planetary nebulae in the Milky Way. Their chemical, dynamical, and morphological properties, the link with their red giant progenitors and white dwarf descendants, and the implications on our understanding of the chemical evolution of the Galaxy, are discussed.
