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…

High-angular-resolution ALMA imaging of the inhomogeneous dynamical atmosphere of the asymptotic giant branch star W Hya

K. Ohnaka, K. T. Wong, G. Weigelt +1

We present high-angular-resolution imaging of the asymptotic giant branch star W Hya with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to probe the dynamics and chemistr…

Imaging the innermost circumstellar environment of the red supergiant WOH G64 in the Large Magellanic Cloud

K. Ohnaka, K. -H. Hofmann, G. Weigelt +3

Significant mass loss in the red supergiant (RSG) phase has great influence on the evolution of massive stars and their final fate as supernovae. We present near-infrared interfero…

Contemporaneous high-angular-resolution imaging of the AGB star W Hya in vibrationally excited H2O lines and visible polarized light with ALMA and VLT/SPHERE-ZIMPOL

K. Ohnaka, K. T. Wong, G. Weigelt +1

We present contemporaneous high-angular-resolution millimeter imaging and visible polarimetric imaging of the nearby asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star W Hya to better understand t…

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…

ALMA observations of the nearby AGB star L2 Puppis - I. Mass of the central star and detection of a candidate planet

P. Kervella, W. Homan, A. M. S. Richards +4

Six billion years from now, while evolving on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), the Sun will metamorphose from a red giant into a beautiful planetary nebula. This spectacular evol…
