The mineral composition and spatial distribution of the dust ejecta of NGC 6302

F. Kemper, F. J. Molster, C. Jaeger +1

We have analysed the full ISO spectrum of the planetary nebula NGC 6302 in order to derive the mineralogical composition of the dust in the nebula. We use an optically thin dust mo…

The carrier of the "30" micron emission feature in evolved stars. A simple model using magnesium sulfide

S. Hony, L. B. F. M. Waters, A. G. G. M. Tielens

We present 2-45 micron spectra of a large sample of carbon-rich evolved stars in order to study the ``30'' micron feature. We find the ``30'' micron feature in sources in a wide ra…

Crystalline silicate dust around evolved stars III. A correlations study of crystalline silicate features

F. J. Molster, L. B. F. M. Waters, A. G. G. M. Tielens +2

We have carried out a quantitative trend analysis of the crystalline silicates observed in the ISO spectra of a sample of 14 stars with different evolutionary backgrounds. We have…

Crystalline silicate dust around evolved stars II. The crystalline silicate complexes

F. J. Molster, L. B. F. M. Waters, A. G. G. M. Tielens

This is the second paper in a series of three in which we present an exhaustive inventory of the 49 solid state emission bands observed in a sample of 17 oxygen-rich dust shells su…

Crystalline silicate dust around evolved stars I. The sample stars

F. J. Molster, L. B. F. M. Waters, A. G. G. M. Tielens +1

This is the first paper in a series of three where we present the first comprehensive inventory of solid state emission bands observed in a sample of 17 oxygen-rich circumstellar d…

An atlas of 2.4 to 4.1 microns ISO/SWS spectra of early-type stars

A. Lenorzer, B. Vandenbussche, P. Morris +5

We present an atlas of spectra of O- and B-type stars, obtained with the Short Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) during the Post-Helium program of the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO).…

Dust and the spectral energy distribution of the OH/IR star OH 127.8+0.0: Evidence for circumstellar metallic iron

F. Kemper, A. de Koter, L. B. F. M. Waters +2

We present a fit to the spectral energy distribution of OH 127.8+0.0, a typical asymptotic giant branch star with an optically thick circumstellar dust shell. The fit to the dust s…
