On the mass and metallicity distribution of parent AGB stars of presolar SiC

Sergio Cristallo, Ambra Nanni, Gabriele Cescutti +5

The vast majority (>=90%) of presolar SiC grains identified in primitive meteorites are relics of ancient asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, whose ejecta were incorporated into t…

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…

Developing a self-consistent AGB wind model: II. Non-classical, non-equilibrium polymer nucleation in a chemical mixture

Jels Boulangier, David Gobrecht, Leen Decin +2

Unravelling the composition and characteristics of gas and dust lost by asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars is important as these stars play a vital role in the chemical life cycle…

Interplay between pulsation, mass loss, and third dredge-up: More about Miras with and without technetium

Stefan Uttenthaler, Iain McDonald, Klaus Bernhard +2

We follow-up on a previous finding that AGB Mira variables containing the 3DUP indicator technetium (Tc) in their atmosphere form a different sequence of K-[22] colour as a functio…

A global optimisation study of the low-lying isomers of the alumina octomer (AlO)

David Gobrecht, Leen Decin, Sergio Cristallo +1

We employ the Monte-Carlo Basin-Hopping (MC-BH) global optimisation technique with inter- atomic pair potentials to generate low-energy candidates of stoichiometric alumina octomer…
