ALMA reveals sunburn: CO dissociation around AGB stars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae
Iain McDonald, Albert A. Zijlstra, Eric Lagadec +15
ALMA observations show a non-detection of carbon monoxide around the four most luminous asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae. Stellar evolution mo…
New observations and models of circumstellar CO line emission of AGB stars in the Herschel SUCCESS programme
Taissa Danilovich, D. Teyssier, K. Justtanont +8
CONTEXT: Asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are in one of the latest evolutionary stages of low to intermediate-mass stars. Their vigorous mass loss has a significant effect on th…
Herschel observations of extreme OH/IR stars - the isotopic ratios of oxygen as a sign-post for the stellar mass
K. Justtanont, M. J. Barlow, J. Blommaert +10
Aim: The late stages of stellar evolution are mainly governed by the mass of the stars. Low- and intermediate-mass stars lose copious amounts of mass during the asymptotic giant br…
Gas and dust in the star-forming region rho Oph A: The dust opacity exponent beta and the gas-to-dust mass ratio g2d
R. Liseau, B. Larsson, T. Lunttila +6
We aim at determining the spatial distribution of the gas and dust in star-forming regions and address their relative abundances in quantitative terms. We also examine the dust opa…
The EChO science case
Giovanna Tinetti, Pierre Drossart, Paul Eccleston +347
The discovery of almost 2000 exoplanets has revealed an unexpectedly diverse planet population. Observations to date have shown that our Solar System is certainly not representativ…
Investigating the nature of the Fried Egg nebula: CO mm-line and optical spectroscopy of IRAS 17163-3907
Sofia H. J. Wallström, S. Muller, E. Lagadec +5
Through CO mm-line and optical spectroscopy, we investigate the properties of the Fried Egg nebula IRAS 17163-3907, which has recently been proposed to be one of the rare members o…
