Fig. 1.
Evolutionary tracks of post-AGB phases taken from Miller Bertolami (2016) for initial masses of 1.0 M⊙ (solid lines) and 2.0 M⊙ (dotted lines) with Z = 0.02 (red) and Z = 0.001 (black). The evolutionary track of a post-horizontal-branch star with a core mass of 0.52 M⊙ with [Fe|$/$|H] = −1.48 taken from Dorman, Rood, and O’Connell (1993) is shown by the dotted (blue) line. The six objects studied in the present work are shown by open circles. (Color online)
