Surveys for Planetary Nebulae in the Magellanic Clouds

Part of the ESO ASTROPHYSICS SYMPOSIA European Southern Observatory book series (ESO)

Abstract

As the nearest major galaxies to the Milky Way, the Magellanic Clouds are a highly productive focal point to study extragalactic PN. These PN are bright and spatially resolved with modern telescopes, providing a single environment where individual PN can be studied in the contexts of both stellar and galaxy evolution. Also, it is possible only in the Clouds to directly observe a large number of central stars at a known distance.
