OH/IR stars in the inner Galactic bulge: I. Colour, CO line, and stellar light curve characteristics
H. Olofsson, T. Khouri, S. Muller +11
Stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) play important roles in a number of astronomical contexts. To quantify these roles, it is necessary to establish the mass-loss characteri…
Rotational spectra of vibrationally excited AlO and TiO in oxygen rich stars
T. Danilovich, C. A. Gottlieb, L. Decin +6
Rotational transitions in vibrationally excited AlO and TiO -- two possible precursors of dust -- were observed in the 300 GHz range (1 mm wavelength) towards the oxygen rich AGB s…
Organic molecules, ions, and rare isotopologues in the remnant of the stellar-merger candidate, CK Vulpeculae (Nova 1670)
T. Kamiński, K. M. Menten, R. Tylenda +3
CK Vul is a star whose outburst was observed in 1670-72. A stellar-merger event was proposed to explain its ancient eruption. Aims: We aim to investigate the composition of the mol…
Search for aluminium monoxide in the winds of oxygen-rich AGB stars
E. De Beck, L. Decin, S. Ramstedt +4
Aluminium monoxide, AlO, is likely efficiently depleted from the gas around oxygen-rich evolved stars to form alumina clusters and dust seeds. Its presence in the extended atmosphe…
A Brief Update on the CMZoom Survey
Cara Battersby, Eric Keto, Qizhou Zhang +16
The inner few hundred parsecs of the Milky Way, the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ), is our closest laboratory for understanding star formation in the extreme environments (hot, dense…
An observational study of dust nucleation in Mira ( Ceti): II. Titanium oxides are negligible for nucleation at high temperatures
T. Kamiński, H. S. P. Müller, M. R. Schmidt +7
The formation of silicate dust in oxygen-rich envelopes of evolved stars is thought to be initiated by formation of seed particles that can withstand the high temperatures close to…
