CO, Water, and Possible Methanol in Eta Carinae Approaching Periastron

Patrick W. Morris, Steven B. Charnley, Michael Corcoran +12

In circumstellar gas, the complex organic molecule methanol has been found almost exclusively around young stellar objects, and is thus regarded as a signpost of recent star format…

Stars at High Spatial Resolution

Kenneth G. Carpenter, Gerard van Belle, Alexander Brown +19

We summarize some of the compelling new scientific opportunities for understanding stars and stellar systems that can be enabled by sub-milliarcsec (sub-mas) angular resolution, UV…

The Nearby Evolved Stars Survey: I. JCMT/SCUBA-2 Sub-millimetre detection of the detached shell of U Antliae

Thavisha E. Dharmawardena, Francisca Kemper, Sundar Srinivasan +24

We present the highest resolution single-dish submillimetre observations of the detached shell source U Antliae to date. The observations were obtained at $450~\micron$ and $850~\m…

Constraining stellar parameters and atmospheric dynamics of the carbon AGB star V Oph

Gioia Rau, Keiichi Ohnaka, Markus Wittkowski +2

Molecules and dust produced by the atmospheres of cool evolved stars contribute to a significant amount of the total material found in the interstellar medium. To understand the me…

Constraining Stellar Photospheres as an Essential Step for Transmission Spectroscopy of Small Exoplanets

Benjamin V. Rackham, Arazi Pinhas, Dániel Apai +29

Transmission spectra probe the atmospheres of transiting exoplanets, but these observations are also subject to signals introduced by magnetic active regions on host stars. Here we…

Cool, evolved stars: results, challenges, and promises for the next decade

Gioia Rau, Rodolfo Montez, Kenneth G. Carpenter +27

Cool, evolved stars are the main source of chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium (ISM), and understanding their mass loss and structure offers a unique opportunity to stud…
