Images of Betelgeuse with VLTI/MATISSE across the Great Dimming

J. Drevon, F. Millour, P. Cruzalèbes +31

From Nov. 2019 to May 2020, the red supergiant star Betelgeuse experienced an unprecedented drop of brightness in the visible domain called the great dimming event. Large atmospher…

The dusty circumstellar environment of Betelgeuse during the Great Dimming as seen by VLTI/MATISSE

E. Cannon, M. Montargès, A. de Koter +23

The 'Great Dimming' of the prototypical red supergiant Betelgeuse, which occurred between December 2019 and April 2020, gives us unprecedented insight into the processes occurring…

The K-band highest-resolution images of the Mira star R Car with GRAVITY-VLTI

A. Rosales-Guzman, J. Sanchez-Bermudez, C. Paladini +11

The mass-loss mechanisms in M-type AGB stars are not well understood, in particular, the formation of dust-driven winds from the innermost gaseous layers around these stars. One wa…

The VLT/SPHERE view of the ATOMIUM cool evolved star sample. I. Overview: Sample characterization through polarization analysis

M. Montargès, E. Cannon, A. de Koter +32

Aims. Through the ATOMIUM project, based on an ALMA large program, we aim to present a consistent view of a sample of 17 nearby cool evolved stars (Aymptotic Giant Branch and red s…

A dusty veil shading Betelgeuse during its Great Dimming

M. Montargès, E. Cannon, E. Lagadec +24

Red supergiants are the most common final evolutionary stage of stars that have initial masses between 8 and 35 times that of the Sun. During this stage, which lasts roughly 100,00…

ATOMIUM: ALMA tracing the origins of molecules in dust forming oxygen rich M-type stars: Motivation, sample, calibration, and initial results

C. A. Gottlieb, L. Decin, A. M. S. Richards +33

This overview paper presents ATOMIUM, a Large Programme in Cycle 6 with the Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array (ALMA). The goal of ATOMIUM is to understand the dynamics a…

ATOMIUM: Halide molecules around the S-type AGB star W Aquilae

T. Danilovich, M. Van de Sande, J. M. C. Plane +36

S-type asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are thought to be intermediates in the evolution of oxygen- to carbon-rich AGB stars. The chemical compositions of their circumstellar en…

Atomium: The astounding complexity of the near circumstellar environment of the M-type AGB star R Hydrae. I. Morpho-kinematical interpretation of CO and SiO emission

Ward Homan, Bannawit Pimpanuwat, Fabrice Herpin +36

Evolved low- to intermediate-mass stars are known to shed their gaseous envelope into a large, dusty, molecule-rich circumstellar nebula which typically develops a high degree of s…

The inner circumstellar dust of the red supergiant Antares as seen with VLT/SPHERE/ZIMPOL

E. Cannon, M. Montarges, A. de Koter +6

The processes by which red supergiants lose mass are not fully understood thus-far and their mass-loss rates lack theoretical constraints. The ambient surroundings of the nearby M0…

Atomium: A high-resolution view on the highly asymmetric wind of the AGB star Pi1 Gruis. I. First detection of a new companion and its effect on the inner wind

Ward Homan, Miguel Montarges, Bannawit Pimpanuwat +35

The nebular circumstellar environments of cool evolved stars are known to harbour a rich morphological complexity of gaseous structures on different length scales. A large part of…

(Sub)stellar companions shape the winds of evolved stars

L. Decin, M. Montargès, A. M. S. Richards +32

Binary interactions dominate the evolution of massive stars, but their role is less clear for low- and intermediate-mass stars. The evolution of a spherical wind from an asymptotic…

A detailed view on the circumstellar environment of the M-type AGB star EP Aquarii I. High-resolution ALMA and SPHERE observations

Ward Homan, Emily Cannon, Miguel Montargès +3

Cool evolved stars are known to be significant contributors to the enrichment of the interstellar medium through their dense and dusty stellar winds. High resolution observations o…
