AGB and Post-AGB Evolution: Structural and Chemical Changes

T. Bloecker, R. Osterbart, G. Weigelt +2

Structural and chemical changes during the AGB and post-AGB evolution are discussed with respect to two recent observational and theoretical findings. On the one hand, high-resolut…

The dynamical evolution of the fragmented, bipolar dust shell around the carbon star IRC +10216: Rapid changes of a PPN-like structure?

R. Osterbart, Y. Balega, T. Bloecker +2

We present high-resolution J-, H-, and K-band observations and the first H-K color image of the carbon star IRC +10216. The images were reconstructed from 6m telescope speckle inte…

The dynamical evolution of the dust shell of IRC+10216

R. Osterbart, Y. Balega, T. Bloecker +2

We present high-resolution J-, H-, and K-band observations of the carbon star IRC+10216. The images were reconstructed from 6 m telescope speckle interferograms using the bispectru…

The rapidly evolving hypergiant IRC+10420: High-resolution bispectrum speckle-interferometry and dust-shell modelling

T. Bloecker, Y. Balega, K. -H. Hofmann +3

The hypergiant IRC+10420 is a unique object for the study of stellar evolution since it is the only object that is believed to be witnessed in its rapid transition from the red sup…

High-resolution speckle masking interferometry and radiative transfer modeling of the oxygen-rich AGB star AFGL 2290

A. Gauger, Y. Y. Balega, P. Irrgang +2

We present the first diffraction-limited speckle masking observations of the oxygen-rich AGB star AFGL 2290. The data was obtained with the Russian 6m SAO telescope. At the wavelen…

Diffraction-limited 76 mas speckle-masking interferometry of the carbon star IRC+10216 and related AGB objects with the SAO 6m telescope

G. Weigelt, T. Bloecker, K. -H. Hofmann +4

We present high-resolution J-, H-, and K-band observations of the carbon star IRC+10216. The images were reconstructed from 6m telescope speckle interferograms using the speckle ma…
