Abstract

Wolf-Rayet (short: WR) stars are characterized by the bright and broad emission lines which dominate their spectra. This class was originally established for Pop. I stars, distinguishing a nitrogen (WN) and carbon (WC) sequence according to the dominating lines. Wolf-Rayet (specifically, WC) type spectra are also shown by a considerable fraction of central stars of planetary nebulae.
