Scientific paper

WF/PC interference filter pictures will be used to resolve the shells of planetary nebulae in the LMC and to resolve the shell of K648 in M15. The angular diameters of the shells will be combined with echelle expansion velocities to derive the ages of nebulae. Ultraviolet spectra of the central stars will be used to derive the stars' effective temperatures and magnitudes, with objective of placing the stars on evolutionary tracks in an M-Teff diagram. UV spectra of the LMC nebulae, K648, and the brightest nebula in M32, NGC205, and NGC185 will be used to derive chemical compositions and physical conditions in the nebulae.
