cds-question@unistra.frspectroscopic-binary-starsextinctionplanetary-nebulaePlanetary nebulae (PNe) trace the hottest and most luminous phase of evolution of solar-type stars. We use these hot, bright stars to investigate extinctions towards a complete sample of 262 confirmed PNe with large angular diameters, which have the most reliable photometry and hottest central stars. For 162 of these PNe, we identify central stars, produce spectral energy distributions from survey data using pyssed, then fit reddened model spectra to the observed photometry to obtain extinctions accurate down to E(B-V) of +/-0.02mag. The fitting is performed by Nelder-Mead {chi}^2^ minimization, with uncertainties evaluated through MCMC. The catalogue of stellar temperatures is updated for our sample for the calculation of luminosities. The extinctions agree well with interstellar extinction. We find evidence of circumnebular extinction for one PN, and evaluate its effect on the PNe luminosity function. Four binaries are identified from the spectral energy distributions. The binary fraction in the full sample is between 23 per cent and 36 per cent. We use our compiled data to evaluate the quality of the central star identifications in the literature. Three objects in our sample have previously been classified as post-RGB systems but we find that their parameters may also be consistent with post-AGB evolution.2025MNRAS.543.3035Chttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/543/3035CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/A+A/656/A51 : Planetary nebulae in Gaia EDR3 (Gonzalez-Santamaria+, 2021)J/A+A/656/A110 : Gaia EDR3 planetary nebula central star distanceshttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/543/3035https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/543/3035http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/543/3035https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/543/3035https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/543/3035http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/543/3035GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/543/3035/table2 (CSPN candidate IDs and reliability assessment)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/543/3035/table2?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/543/3035/table2?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/543/3035/table2?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true329.8961667-39.38561110.0055555555555555566/1111 1179 1200 1445 1455-1456 1628 1693 1718 1805 2796 2887 2911 2997 3128 3294 3316 3324-3325 3618 3621 3653 3683 3771 4244 4370 4690 5591 5996 6202 6654 6787 7090 7134 9276 11176 11339 12515 12520 12577 12893 12983 13021 13076 13149 13182 13257 13265 13277 13814 14024 14045 14115 14198 14226 14279 14286 14354 14404 14449 14451 14586 14643 14719 14799 14853 15105 15113 15118 15351 15393 15429 15488 15552 15561 15750 15764-15765 15839 15873 16260 16886 19796 20400 20728 21218 21512 21523 21548 21551 21650 21669 21688 21706 21729 21818 21948 22047 22053 22182-22183 22228 22269 22279-22280 22362 22440 22478 23576 23594 23905 24008 24395 24497 24522 25008 27192 28126 28678 28723 28879 28920-28921 28976 29025 29052-29053 29105 29145 29154 29445 29462 29465 29502 29724 29743 29868 29937 30135 30186 30222-30223 30276 30284 30303 30327-30328 30337 30430 30480 30511 30657 31895 32020 32044 32092 32581 33790 37096 37191 37277 37345 37364 37565 37686 37697 37708 37727 37757 37783 37851 37895 37914 37941 37948 37962 38041 38105 38151 38187 38364 39143 39278 39283 39291 39741 39754 39765 40040 40114 40117 40168 40433 40452 40525 40587 40614 40629 41177 41213 41404 41466 41471 41570 41572 41608 41656 41659 41664 41672 41683 41705 41732 41734 41742 41768-41770 41826 41903 41912 42004 42153 42163 42234 42306 42354 42374 42400 42419 42435 42437 42443 42468 42504-42505 42536 42621 42659 42665 42691 42792 42811 42893 43024 43046 43083 43138 43273 43648 43787 44707 46712 47100 47785 47799 48775-48776 48803https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/543/3035?format=asciidefaultJ/MNRAS/543/3035/table2CSPN candidate IDs and reliability assessmentrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
