The JWST Proto-PAH Project: Detection of the methyl radical CH in the highly evolved C-rich object SMP LMC 011
Jialu Li, D. A. García-Hernández, A. Manchado +17
We report the first detection of the neutral methyl radical CH in a highly evolved C-rich object, SMP LMC 011, using JWST MIRI/MRS. CH is well fitted by an excitation tempe…
Mid-infrared JWST spectra of carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
G. C. Sloan, B. Aringer, Kathleen E. Kraemer +11
Mid-infrared spectra from the Medium Resolution Spectrometer on the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed the molecular chemistry of carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud w…
An Improved Atlas of Full-Scan Spectra from ISO/SWS
D. R. Mizuno, T. A. Kuchar, Kathleen E. Kraemer +4
We present an atlas of full-scan spectra from the Short-Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) aboard the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) after reprocessing and improving an earlier versio…
The JWST/MIRI view of the planetary nebula NGC 6302 I.: a UV irradiated torus and a hot bubble triggering PAH formation
Mikako Matsuura, Kevin Volk, Patrick Kavanagh +34
NGC 6302 is a spectacular bipolar planetary nebula (PN) whose spectrum exhibits fast outflows and highly ionized emission lines, indicating the presence of a very hot central star…
The Extended Atlas of Low-resolution Spectra from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite
G. C. Sloan, Kathleen E. Kraemer, K. Volk
We present an updated atlas of spectra from the Low-Resolution Spectrometer (LRS) on the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS), which took spectra from 7.67 to 22.73 um with a spe…
The Nearby Evolved Stars Survey (NESS) V: properties of volume-limited samples of Galactic evolved stars
I. McDonald, S. Srinivasan, P. Scicluna +23
We provide a meta-study of the statistical and individual properties of two volume-complete sets of evolved stars in the Solar Neighbourhood: (1) 852 stars from the Nearby Evolved…
Temporal Changes in the Infrared Spectra of Magellanic Carbon Stars
G. C. Sloan, K. E. Kraemer, B. Aringer +9
The Medium-Resolution Spectrometer on the Mid-Infrared Instrument on JWST obtained spectra of three carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Two of the spectra differ significan…
The infrared spectral properties of Magellanic carbon stars
G. C. Sloan, K. E. Kraemer, I. McDonald +12
The Infrared Spectrograph on the Spitzer Space Telescope observed 184 carbon stars in the Magellanic Clouds. This sample reveals that the dust-production rate (DPR) from carbon sta…
SOFIA/FORCAST Observations of Warm Dust in S106: A Fragmented Environment
J. D. Adams, T. L. Herter, J. L. Hora +22
We present mid-IR (19 - 37 microns) imaging observations of S106 from SOFIA/FORCAST, complemented with IR observations from Spitzer/IRAC (3.6 - 8.0 microns), IRTF/MIRLIN (11.3 and…
Photometric properties of carbon stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud
G. C. Sloan, E. Lagadec, K. E. Kraemer +4
The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment identified over 1,800 carbon-rich Mira and semi-regular variables in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Multi-epoch infrared photometry reveal…
Accretion and outflow in the proplyd-like objects near Cygnus OB2
M. G. Guarcello, J. J. Drake, N. J. Wright +2
Cygnus OB2 is the most massive association within 2kpc from the Sun, hosting hundreds of massive stars, thousands of young low mass members, and some sights of active star formatio…
Carbon-rich dust past the asymptotic giant branch: aliphatics, aromatics, and fullerenes in the Magellanic Clouds
G. C. Sloan, E. Lagadec, A. A. Zijlstra +10
Infrared spectra of carbon-rich objects which have evolved off the asymptotic giant branch reveal a range of dust properties, including fullerenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons…
