Abstract

Recent observations of Magellanic Cloud stars in the late stages of stellar evolution (carbon stars, long-period variables, OH/IR stars and planetary nebulae) are presented. The observations are compared with theoretical stellar evolution calculations.KeywordsMass Loss RateExpansion VelocityCentral StarPlanetary NebulaAsymptotic Giant BranchThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
