Infrared studies of post-AGB stars and PNe
Abstract
We present infrared two color diagrams (2CDs) for a large sample of AGB stars, post-AGB stars, and planetary nebulae (PNe) to study their spectral evolution in infrared bands. We discuss possible evolutionary tracks from AGB stars to PNe on the 2CDs. We use catalogs from the available literature for the sample of AGB stars, post-AGB stars, and PNe in our Galaxy.
