Bottling the Champagne: Dynamics and Radiation Trapping of Wind-Driven Bubbles around Massive Stars

Sam Geen, Alex de Koter

In this paper we make predictions for the behaviour of wind bubbles around young massive stars using analytic theory. We do this in order to determine why there is a discrepancy be…

ATOMIUM: ALMA tracing the origins of molecules in dust forming oxygen rich M-type stars: Motivation, sample, calibration, and initial results

C. A. Gottlieb, L. Decin, A. M. S. Richards +33

This overview paper presents ATOMIUM, a Large Programme in Cycle 6 with the Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array (ALMA). The goal of ATOMIUM is to understand the dynamics a…

ATOMIUM: Halide molecules around the S-type AGB star W Aquilae

T. Danilovich, M. Van de Sande, J. M. C. Plane +36

S-type asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are thought to be intermediates in the evolution of oxygen- to carbon-rich AGB stars. The chemical compositions of their circumstellar en…

Fine structure in the luminosity function in young stellar populations with Gaia DR2

Difeng Guo, Alex de Koter, Lex Kaper +2

A pioneering study showed that the fine structure in the luminosity function (LF) of young star clusters contains information about the evolutionary stage (age) and composition of…

Empirical mass-loss rates and clumping properties of Galactic early-type O supergiants

C. Hawcroft, H. Sana, L. Mahy +7

We investigate the impact of optically thick clumping on stellar wind diagnostics in O supergiants and constrain wind parameters associated with porosity in velocity space. This is…

Atomium: The astounding complexity of the near circumstellar environment of the M-type AGB star R Hydrae. I. Morpho-kinematical interpretation of CO and SiO emission

Ward Homan, Bannawit Pimpanuwat, Fabrice Herpin +36

Evolved low- to intermediate-mass stars are known to shed their gaseous envelope into a large, dusty, molecule-rich circumstellar nebula which typically develops a high degree of s…
