    A high-mass planetary nebula in a Galactic open cluster

    Planetary nebulae are the ionized ejected envelopes surrounding the remnant cores of dying stars. Theory predicts that main-sequence stars of one to about eight solar masses may eventually form planetary nebul...

    Author Correction: Reduction of the maximum mass-loss rate of OH/IR stars due to unnoticed binary interaction

    In the version of this Letter originally published, the caption of Fig. 2 incorrectly said J = 3–2; it should have said J = 2–1. This has now been corrected.

    Reduction of the maximum mass-loss rate of OH/IR stars due to unnoticed binary interaction

    In 1981, the idea of a superwind that ends the life of cool giant stars was proposed1. Extreme oxygen-rich giants, OH/IR stars, develop superwinds with the highest mass-loss rates known so far, up to a few 10−4 s...

    The mysterious age invariance of the planetary nebula luminosity function bright cut-off

    Planetary nebulae mark the end of the active life of 90% of all stars. They trace the transition from a red giant to a degenerate white dwarf. Stellar models1,2 predicted that only stars above approximately twice...
