τ_PN in units of 10³ yr

Notes. The PN visibility lifetimes τ_PN are given in units of 10³ yr and are determined from the PNe resulting from the SSPs for the brightest 8 magnitudes below the typical bright-end cutoff of M(5007) = -4.5. Each row corresponds to the given age t_age and each column to the given metallicity Z.
