Abstract
[Abstract] The aim of this work is to search for evidence of close binary stars associated with planetary nebulae (ionized stellar envelopes in expansion) by mining the astronomical archive of Gaia EDR3. For this task, using big data techniques, we selected a sample of central stars of planetary nebulae from almost 2000 million sources in an EDR3 database. Then, we analysed some of their parameters, which could provide clues about the presence of close binary systems, and we ran a statistical test to verify the results. Using this method, we concluded that red stars tend to show more affinity with close binarity than blue ones.
