MATISSE unveils a dusty disc in the interior of EP Aquarii. First evidence of a misaligned hierarchical triple system with a central AGB star?

J. Alonso-Hernández, C. Paladini, C. Sánchez Contreras +26

Aims. We have mapped the dust and molecular gas emission distributions in the vicinity (a few stellar radii) of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star EP\,Aquarii, with a previousl…

X TrA through the eyes of MATISSE: More evidence of clumpy molecular layers around C-type asymptotic giant branch stars

V. Răstău, C. Paladini, J. Drevon +22

Aims. The goal of this study is to further the understanding of the wind formation mechanism in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars through the analysis of the close environment (w…

Multi-band infrared imaging reveals dusty spiral arcs around the binary B[e] star 3 Puppis

M. Abello, J. Drevon, A. Meilland +24

3 Puppis is the brightest known B[e] star. Recent work classifies this A-type object as a supergiant, yet the impact of its binarity on the circumstellar environment (CE) remains h…

An impressionist view of V Hydrae. When MATISSE paints Asymmetric Giant Blobs

L. Planquart, C. Paladini, A. Jorissen +29

Our purpose is to study the effect of binary companions located within the first 10 stellar radii from the primary AGB star. In this work, we target the mass-losing carbon star V H…

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…

Locating dust and molecules in the inner circumstellar environment of R~Sculptoris with MATISSE

Julien Drevon, Florentin Millour, Pierre Cruzalèbes +49

AGB stars are one of the main sources of dust production in the Galaxy. However, it is not clear what this process looks like and where the dust is condensing in the circumstellar…
