Quantitative Spectral Analysis of hot Post-AGB Stars
Abstract
Post-AGB (PAGB) stars are luminous objects of low and intermediate mass in a final and short stage of evolution in the transition between AGB stars and planetary nebulae (PNe). In this work we present a quantitative spectral analysis of some hot PAGBs based on high resolution spectra. The stellar parameters and chemical composition were obtained from the synthesis of non-LTE spectra.
