Measuring Dust Production in the Small Magellanic Cloud Core-Collapse Supernova Remnant 1E 0102.2-7219
Karin M. Sandstrom, Alberto D. Bolatto, Snezana Stanimirovic +2
We present mid-infrared spectral mapping observations of the core-collapse supernova remnant 1E 0102.2-7219 in the Small Magellanic Cloud using the InfraRed Spectrograph (IRS) on t…
A Spitzer search for cold dust within globular clusters
P. Barmby, M. L. Boyer, C. E. Woodward +5
Globular cluster stars evolving off the main sequence are known to lose mass, and it is expected that some of the lost material should remain within the cluster as an intracluster…
Spitzer Space Telescope evidence in NGC 6791: no super-mass-loss at super-solar metallicity to explain helium white dwarfs?
Jacco Th. van Loon, Martha L. Boyer, Iain McDonald
We use archival Spitzer Space Telescope photometry of the old, super-solar metallicity massive open cluster NGC 6791 to look for evidence of enhanced mass loss, which has been post…
The connection between mass loss and nucleosynthesis
Jacco Th. van Loon
I discuss the relationship between mass loss and nucleosynthesis on the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB). Because of thermal pulses and possibly other mixing processes, products of nu…
The Magellanic Clouds as a template for the study of stellar populations and galaxy interactions
M. -R. L. Cioni, K. Bekki, G. Clementini +18
The Magellanic System represents one of the best places to study the formation and evolution of galaxies. Photometric surveys of various depths, areas and wavelengths have had a si…
Spitzer Space Telescope spectral observations of AGB stars in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy
M. Matsuura, A. A. Zijlstra, J. Bernard-Salas +10
We have observed five carbon-rich AGB stars in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy, using the Infrared Spectrometer on board the Spitzer Space Telescope. The stars were selec…
