Planetary nebula nuclei on lower luminosity, diagonal tracks in the HR Diagrams are degenerate dwarf stars close to their final radii. For several reasons, these stars have until recently been difficult to identify and study. With the advent of new techniques and technologies, both hydrogen–rich and hydrogen–poor atmospheric sequences have been found.
