Evolved stars: dust formation and mass loss

Luis Velilla-Prieto, Wouter Vlemmings, Guillermo Quintana-Lacaci +18

Evolved stars drive the chemical enrichment of the Universe, acting as primary producers of elemental products of nucleosynthesis and cosmic dust. Unraveling the exact role played…

Evolved stars, multiplicity and planets: Shaping and Being Shaped by Stellar Evolution

Theo Khouri, Wouter Vlemmings, Elvire De Beck +21

Understanding how planets and stellar companions survive and interact with their host stars as they evolve, or are ultimately destroyed in the process, is essential both for predic…

Chemical tracers of a highly eccentric AGB-main sequence star binary

T. Danilovich, J. Malfait, M. Van de Sande +32

Binary interactions have been proposed to explain a variety of circumstellar structures seen around evolved stars, including asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and planetary nebul…

Hybrid approach predicts a lower binding energy for benzene on water ice

Victoria H. J. Clark, David M. Benoit, Marie Van de Sande +1

In this paper we provide a highly accurate value for the binding energy of benzene to proton-ordered crystalline water ice (XIh), as a model for interstellar ices. We compare our c…

Modelling predicts a molecule-rich disk around the AGB star L2 Puppis

M. Van de Sande, C. Walsh, T. Danilovich +2

The nearby oxygen-rich AGB star L2 Pup hosts a well-studied nearly edge-on disk. To date, disks around AGB stars have not been chemically studied in detail. By combining a paramete…

Disentangling physics and chemistry in AGB outflows: revealing degeneracies when adding complexity

Marie Van de Sande, Catherine Walsh, Tom J. Millar

Observations of the outflows of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars continue to reveal their chemical and dynamical complexity. Spherical asymmetries, such as spirals and disks, ar…

Sensitivity study of chemistry in AGB outflows using chemical kinetics

S. Maes, M. Van de Sande, T. Danilovich +2

Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars shed a significant amount of their mass in the form of a stellar wind, creating a vast circumstellar envelope (CSE). Owing to the ideal combinat…

Investigating Anomalous Photochemistry in the Inner Wind of IRC+10216 Through Interferometric Observations of HCN

Mark A. Siebert, Marie Van de Sande, Thomas J. Millar +1

In recent years, many questions have arisen regarding the chemistry of photochemical products in the carbon-rich winds of evolved stars. To address them, it is imperative to constr…
