Large-scale environments of binary AGB stars probed by Herschel - I. Morphology statistics and case studies of R Aquarii and W Aquilae
A. Mayer, A. Jorissen, F. Kerschbaum +14
The Mass loss of Evolved StarS (MESS) sample offers a selection of 78 Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars and Red Supergiants (RSGs) observed with the PACS photometer on-board Hers…
The enigmatic nature of the circumstellar envelope and bow shock surrounding Betelgeuse as revealed by Herschel. I. Evidence of clumps, multiple arcs, and a linear bar-like structure
L. Decin, N. L. J. Cox, P. Royer +13
Context. The interaction between stellar winds and the interstellar medium (ISM) can create complex bow shocks. The photometers on board the Herschel Space Observatory are ideally…
Discovery of multiple dust shells beyond 1 arcmin in the circumstellar envelope of IRC+10216 using Herschel/PACS
L. Decin, P. Royer, N. L. J. Cox +9
We present new Herschel/PACS images at 70, 100, and 160 micron of the well-known, nearby, carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch star IRC+10216 revealing multiple dust shells in its c…
Unexpectedly large mass loss during the thermal pulse cycle of the red giant R Sculptoris!
M. Maercker, S. Mohamed, W. H. T. Vlemmings +10
The asymptotic giant branch star R Sculptoris is surrounded by a detached shell of dust and gas. The shell originates from a thermal pulse during which the star undergoes a brief p…
Herschel's view into Mira's head
A. Mayer, A. Jorissen, F. Kerschbaum +9
Herschel's PACS instrument observed the environment of the binary system Mira Ceti in the 70 and 160 micron bands. These images reveal bright structures shaped as five broken arcs…
Warm water vapour in the sooty outflow from a luminous carbon star
L. Decin, M. Agundez, M. J. Barlow +34
In 2001, the discovery of circumstellar water vapour around the ageing carbon star IRC+10216 was announced. This detection challenged the current understanding of chemistry in old…
