ADC_Keywords: Planetary nebulae ; Spectroscopy ; Abundances Keywords: stars: abundances - ISM: planetary nebulae: general - Galaxy: bulge - Galaxy: abundances Description: We present new plasma diagnostics and abundances of a sample of planetary nebulae located in the Galactic bulge (168 objects), the Galactic inner disk (61 objects) and in the LMC (110 objects).

The first row gives the values of parameters computed from the nominal values of the observational data. The second and third row give the upper and lower limits respectively of these parameters as derived taking into account the observational error bars. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- See also: V/84 : Strasbourg-ESO Cat of Galactic Planetary Nebulae (Acker+ 1992) J/A+A/427/231 : Abundances in planetary nebulae (Gorny+, 2004) J/A+A/500/1089 : Abundances in planetary nebulae (Gorny+, 2009) Byte-by-byte Description of file: table1?.dat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bytes Format Units Label Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1- 11 A11 --- PNG Planetary Nebula PNG Name (see Cat.
