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 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...
متن کاملStellar Masers, Circumstellar Envelopes, and Supernova Remnants
This paper reviews recent advances in the study or circumstellar masers and masers found toward supernova remnants. The review is organized by science focus area, including the astrophysics of extended stellar atmospheres, stellar mass-loss processes and outflows, late-type evolved stellar evolution, stellar maser excitation and chemistry, and the use of stellar masers as independent distance e...
