Periodic activity on the (sub)mm surface of the AGB star Mira A
M. Andriantsaralaza, B. Bojnordi Arbab, W. Vlemmings +7
Evolved stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) lose mass through stellar winds launched from their dynamic extended atmospheres. Recent high-angular-resolution observations of…

A giant magnetic eruption from the asymptotic giant branch star Mira A
W. Vlemmings, M. Andriantsaralaza, B. Bojnordi Arbab +14
Mass loss during the advanced evolutionary stages of low- and intermediate-mass stars is traditionally attributed to dust-driven winds, whereas the influence of magnetic fields rem…

An empirical view of the extended atmosphere and inner envelope of the asymptotic giant branch star R Doradus. II. Constraining the dust properties with radiative transfer modelling
Thiebaut Schirmer, Theo Khouri, Wouter Vlemmings +6
Mass loss in oxygen-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars remains poorly understood, as the dust detected around them appears too transparent to drive winds through absorption a…
