cds-question@unistra.frplanetary-nebulaepopulation-ii-starseffective-temperaturevisible-astronomyCentral stars of planetary nebulae (CSPNe) are essential for understanding the final evolutionary stages of low- and intermediate-mass stars. However, their study in extragalactic environments remains challenging due to their intrinsic faintness and the limited availability of high-quality data. We aim to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date catalogue of extragalactic CSPNe, enabling a more complete view of their physical properties across different galactic environments and metallicities. The catalogue was assembled using data from the most recent and reliable literature sources. Priority was given to collecting effective temperatures and luminosities, either directly reported or consistently derived. When available, spectral types or specific spectral features - such as P-Cygni profiles or broad Halpha emission lines - were also included. This approach allows for a broader characterization of the sample, even when accurate classifications are not available. We present a new compilation of extragalactic CSPNe - the largest to date - comprising over 1000 objects located in the Magellanic Clouds, NGC 300, NGC 5128, and other fifteen nearby galaxies. This catalogue enables, for the first time, a global comparison of CSPNe physical parameters beyond the Milky Way. Updated Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams are provided, featuring CSPNe from seven different galaxies, revealing trends and outliers that merit further investigation. The catalogue represents a valuable resource for future spectroscopic follow-up and for improving our understanding of post-AGB evolution in diverse galactic contexts.2025A&A...701A.125Whttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/701/A125CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/A+A/640/A10 : Catalogue of planetary nebulae central stars (Weidmann+, 2020)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/701/A125https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/701/A125http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/701/A125https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/701/A125https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/701/A125http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/701/A125GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/701/A125/catalog (Extragalactic CSPN)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/701/A125/catalog?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/701/A125/catalog?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/701/A125/catalog?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true92.0830833-71.96040280.0055555555555555565/655 8263 8269 8274-8275 8323 6/2154-2155 2612 2614 2665-2667 2705 2708-2710 2752 2774 2777 7606 26858 27351 33031 33042 33044 33046-33048 33061 33063 33073-33074 33085 33090-33091 33093-33095 33109-33110 33112 33120-33121 33123-33126 33128-33129 33133 33136 33138-33139 33173 33286 33291 33297 33299-33300 33304 33306 33313 33315-33317 33319 33321 33324 33328-33329 33336 33792 33802 35206 35536 35538 35969 37417 37419 37504 37506 37513 37518 37538 37545 37547 38846 43262-43263 43881 47921 48005 48017https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/701/A125?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/A+A/701/A125/catalogExtragalactic CSPNrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
