AbstractTo understand mass loss history and mass loss and dust formation history of massive AGB stars, we carried out observations of three bipolar planetary nebulae (BPNe) in 30 micron bands from a ground-based telescope. All of our targets have a compact strong emission source in the mid-infrared (MIR) around the position of the central star of planetary nebula (CSPN). These detected emissions can be originated from cool dust. Our results show that the cool dust component is compactly distributed and much more massive than previous studies indicated. These findings suggest that they experienced a strong mass loss into the equatorial direction in past.

In this paper, I present how near and mid-infrared observations can be used for the study of planetary nebulae and related objects. I present the main observing techniques, from the ground and space, highlighting main differences and how they can be complementary. I also highlight some new observing facilities and present the infrared observatories of the future to show that the future of infrared observations of planetary nebulae is bright.

AbstractDue to interstellar extinction, optical census of Galactic planetary nebulae (PNs) is highly incomplete, and some compact H ii regions might have been mis-classified as PNs. The problem is particularly severe in the Galactic plane where the extinction in the optical is significant and hampers the detections of PNs. Unlike optical observations, infrared (IR) observations are hardly affected by interstellar extinction, and provide a good opportunity to study highly obscured PNs. In this study, we use the data from the Spitzer Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire 3D (GLIMPSE 3D) to investigate the mid-infrared (MIR) properties of PNs and PN candidates.
