With the aim to investigate the overall evolution of UIR band features with hardening of UV radiation (increase of the stars effective temperature) we have analysed ISO spectra for 32 C-rich stars: 20 proto-planetary nebulae and 12 planetary nebulae with Wolf-Rayet central stars. In this contribution we discuss variations in the peak position of UIR bands among analysed objects, and demonstrate that variations in the ``7.7 to 11.3 microns flux ratio are correlated with the effective temperature (probably due to an increase of the ionization state of their carriers).

We present our recent results on mm-wave CO observations of proto-planetary nebulae. These include high-resolution interferometric maps of various CO lines in three well known bipolar PPNe: M1-92, M2-56 and OH231.8+4.2. The global properties of the h
igh velocity molecular emission in post-AGB sources have been also studied, by means of high-sensitivity single dish observations of the J=1-0 and 2-1 lines of 12CO and 13CO. We discuss the implications of these results to constrain the origin of the post-AGB molecular high-velocity winds and the shaping of bipolar PPNe and PNe. In addition, we also present the results of an interferometric map of the molecular envelope around the luminous high-latitude star 89 Her, a low mass post-AGB source which is also a close binary system.
We compute successfully the launching of two magnetic winds from two circumbinary disks formed after a common envelope event. The launching is produced by the increase of magnetic pressure due to the collapse of the disks. The collapse is due to inte
rnal torques produced by a weak poloidal magnetic field. The first wind can be described as a wide jet, with an average mass-loss rate of $sim 1.3 times 10^{-7}$ Moy and a maximum radial velocity of $sim 230$ kms. The outflow has a half-opening angle of $sim 20^{circ}$. Narrow jets are also formed intermittently with velocities up to 3,000 kms, with mass-loss rates of $sim 6 times 10^{-12} $ Moy during short periods of time. The second wind can be described as a wide X-wind, with an average mass-loss rate of $sim 1.68 times 10^{-7}$ Moy and a velocity of $sim 30$ kms. A narrow jet is also formed with a velocity of 250 kms, and a mass-loss rates of $sim 10^{-12} $ Moy. The computed jets are used to provide inflow boundary conditions for simulations of proto-planetary nebulae. The wide jet evolves into a molecular collimated outflow within a few astronomical units, producing proto-planetary nebulae with bipolar, elongated shapes, whose kinetic energies reach $sim 4 times 10^{45}$ erg at 1,000 years. Similarities with observed features in W43A, OH231.8+4.2, and Hen 3-1475 are discussed. The computed wide X-wind produces proto-planetary nebulae with slower expansion velocities, with bipolar and elliptical shapes, and possible starfish type and quadrupolar morphology.
We use ground-based imaging polarimetry to detect and image the dusty circumstellar envelopes of a sample of proto-planetary nebulae (PPNe) at near-infrared wavelengths. We detect extended (up to 9 arcsec diameter) circumstellar envelopes around 15 o
ut of 16 sources with a range of morphologies including bipolars and shells. The distribution of scattered light in combination with its polarization (up to 40 per cent) provides unambiguous evidence for axisymmetry in 14 objects showing this to be a common trait of PPNe. We suggest that the range of observed envelope morphologies results from the development of an axisymmetric dust distribution during the superwind phase at the end of the AGB. We identify shells seen in polarized light with scattering from these superwind dust distributions which allows us to provide constraints on the duration of the superwind phase. In one object (IRAS 19475+3119) the circumstellar envelope has a two-armed spiral structure which we suggest results from the interaction of the mass losing star with a binary companion.
High resolution infrared imaging observations of the young Planetary Nebulae NGC 7027 and BD +303639, taken with the newly installed TIFR Infrared Camera-II (TIRCAM2) on 3.6m Devasthal Optical Telescope (DOT), ARIES, Nainital, are being reported. The
images are acquired in J, H, K, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and narrow-band L (nbL) filters. The observations show emission from warm dust and PAHs in the circumstellar shells. The imaging of the two objects are among the first observations in PAH and nbL bands using TIRCAM2 on DOT. The NGC 7027 images in all bands show similar elliptical morphology with ~6.7 and ~4.5 semi-major and semi-minor axes. Considering size up to 10% of peak value the nebula extends upto 8 from the central star revealing a multipolar evolution. The relatively cooler BD +303639 shows a rectangular-ring shaped nebula. In J and H bands it shows an angular diameter of ~8, while a smaller ~6.9 size is observed in K, PAH and nbL bands. The 3.28 micron emission indicates presence of PAHs at about 6000 and 5000 AU from the central stars in NGC 7027 and BD +303639 respectively. Analysis suggests domination of neutral PAHs in BD+303639, while in NGC 7027 there is higher ionization and more processed PAH population.
This paper discusses the location of a sample of planetary nebulae on the HR diagram. We determine the internal velocity fields of 14 planetary nebulae from high-resolution echelle spectroscopy, with the help of photoionization models. The mass avera
ged velocity is shown to be a robust, simple parameter describing the outflow. The expansion velocity and radius are used to define the dynamical age; together with the stellar temperature, this gives a measurement of the luminosity and core mass of the central star. The same technique is applied to other planetary nebulae with previously measured expansion velocities, giving a total sample of 73 objects. The objects cluster closely around the Schoenberner track of 0.61 M_sun, with a very narrow distribution of core masses. The masses are higher than found for local white dwarfs. The luminosities determined in this way tend to be higher by a factor of a few than those derived from the nebular luminosities. The discrepancy is highest for the hottest (most evolved) stars. We suggest photon leakage as the likely cause. The innermost regions of the non-[WC] nebulae tend to show strong acceleration. Together with the acceleration at the ionization front, the velocity field becomes U-shaped. The presence of strong turbulent motions in [WC] nebulae is confirmed. Except for this, we find that the [WC] stars evolve on the same tracks as non-[WC] stars.
