Infrared interferometry of circumstellar envelopes
This paper will review the technical progress of interferometric infrared observing techniques from the first 2-element interferometer 25 years ago to the 3+ element arrays now coming into service. To date, only the Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) has published separateelement interferometric data on circumstellar dust shells in the infrared and many of these scientific results will be di...
متن کاملObservations of circumstellar disks with infrared interferometry
The structure and composition of circumstellar disks around young stars is one of the areas in which infrared interferometry has had a major impact. I will review the observational progress in this field starting from the earliest observations of T Tauri, Herbig Ae/Be and FU Ori objects with smaller interferometers. Highlights of recent work include measurements of the inner disk size across 5 ...
متن کاملWater vapour in circumstellar envelopes
We present observations of the 313 →220 line of p-H2O at 183 GHz in the direction of the circumstellar envelopes of 23 O–rich evolved stars. The 183 GHz data are complemented with observations of CO J=2 →1, p-H2O 515 →422 at 325 GHz, o-H2O 616 →523 at 22 GHz and SiO v=1 J=2 →1. The line profiles of these transitions are compared and discussed in terms of the regions where they are formed. We ha...
متن کاملA survey of CN in circumstellar envelopes
We have conducted a survey of CN N=2–1 and N=1–0 line emission in the envelopes of evolved stars. The sample consists of 42 objects, including C-rich and O-rich envelopes, S-stars, detached envelopes, and proto-planetary nebulae. Confident detections have been achieved in 30 objects. Both CN lines are bright in C-rich envelopes, and the 2–1 line has been detected in 5 O-rich objects (previously...
متن کاملImaging the circumstellar envelopes of AGB stars ⋆
Aims. We report the results of an exploratory program to image the extended circumstellar envelopes of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in dust-scattered galactic light. The goal is to characterize the morphology of the envelopes as a probe of the mass-loss process. Methods. The observations consist of short exposures with the VLT and longer exposures with 1–2 m telescopes, augmented with ar...
