Dynamic atmosphere and wind models of C-type asymptotic giant branch stars. Influences of dust optical data on mass loss and observables

Emelie Siderud, Kjell Eriksson, Susanne Höfner +1

Mass loss through stellar winds governs the evolution of stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB). In the case of carbon-rich AGB stars, the wind is believed to be driven by radi…
