Atmospheric molecular blobs shape up circumstellar envelopes of AGB stars
L. Velilla-Prieto, J. P. Fonfría, M. Agúndez +8
During their thermally pulsing phase, Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars eject material that forms extended dusty envelopes. Visible polarimetric imaging found clumpy dust clouds…
Chemical equilibrium in AGB atmospheres: Successes, failures, and prospects for small molecules, clusters, and condensates
M. Agundez, J. I. Martinez, P. L. de Andres +2
Chemical equilibrium has proven extremely useful to predict the chemical composition of AGB atmospheres. Here we use a recently developed code and an updated thermochemical databas…
The growth of carbon chains in IRC+10216 mapped with ALMA
M. Agundez, J. Cernicharo, G. Quintana-Lacaci +9
Linear carbon chains are common in various types of astronomical molecular sources. Possible formation mechanisms involve both bottom-up and top-down routes. We have carried out a…
