Modelling the H Lyman lines in evolved late-type stars
The importance of Partial Redistribution (PRD) in the modelling of the Lyman α and Lyman β emission lines of hydrogen in stellar atmospheres is examined using simple atmospheric models of a range of late-type stars. These models represent the sub-giant Procyon (F5 IV-V), and the two giants β Gem (K0 III) and α Tau (K5 III). These stars are selected to span a wide range of surface gravities: 1.2...
متن کاملSimultaneous observations of maser lines of 28SiO in evolved stars
We present simultaneous observations of several rotational lines of 28SiO in the v=1, 2, 3, and 4vibrationally excited states toward O-rich evolved stars. All the data were taken in a relatively short period of 65 days, which allows a comparative study of the 28SiO maser lines intensities and profiles. The observed differences concerning intensity and line shape among the differentmaser lines s...
متن کاملSpectral Lines from Rotating Neutron Stars
The line profiles from rotating neutron stars are affected by a number of relativistic processes such as Doppler boosts, strong self-lensing, frame-dragging, and the differential gravitational redshift arising from the stellar oblateness. In this Letter, we calculate line profiles taking into account the first two effects, which is accurate for rotation rates less than the breakup frequency. We...
متن کاملMaser studies in evolved stars
High resolution maps of maser emission provide very detailed information on processes occurring in circumstellar envelopes of late-type stars. A particularly detailed picture of the innermost shells around AGB stars is provided by SiO masers. Considerable progress is being made to provide astrometrically aligned multi-transition simultaneous observations of these masers, which are needed to bet...
متن کاملMagnesium Isotopes in Halo Stars
We have determined Mg isotope ratios in halo field dwarfs and giants in the globular cluster M71 based on high S/N high spectral resolution {R= 10^) Keck HIRES spectra. Unlike previous claims of an important contribution from intermediate-mass AGB stars to the Galactic halo, we find that our ^^Mg/^^Mg ratios can be explained by massive stars.
