The Double Dust Envelopes of R Coronae Borealis Stars
Edward J. Montiel, Geoffrey C. Clayton, B. E. K. Sugerman +6
The study of extended, cold dust envelopes surrounding R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars began with their discovery by IRAS. RCB stars are carbon-rich supergiants characterized by the…
High-resolution optical spectroscopy of the R Coronae Borealis star V532 Ophiuchi at maximum light
N. Kameswara Rao, David L. Lambert, Vincent M. Woolf +1
High-resolution optical spectra of the R Coronae Borealis (RCB) star V532 Oph at light maximum are discussed. The absolute visual magnitude M_V of the star is found to be -4.9 \pm…
Dust around R Coronae Borealis stars: II. Infrared emission features in a H-poor environment
D. A. Garcia-Hernandez, N. Kameswara Rao, D. L. Lambert
Residual Spitzer/IRS spectra for a sample of 31 R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars are presented and discussed in terms of narrow emission features superimposed on the quasi-blackbody…
The hot R Coronae Borealis star DY Centauri is a binary
N. Kameswara Rao, David L. Lambert, D. A. Garcia-Hernandez +3
The remarkable hot R Coronae Borealis star DY Cen is revealed to be the first and only binary system to be found among the R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars and their likely relatives…
High-resolution optical spectroscopy of DY Cen: diffuse interstellar bands in a proto-fullerene circumstellar environment?
D. A. Garcia-Hernandez, N. Kameswara Rao, David L. Lambert
We search high-resolution and high-quality VLT/UVES optical spectra of the hot R Coronae Borealis (RCB) star DY Cen for electronic transitions of the C60 molecule and diffuse inter…
Dust around R Coronae Borealis stars: I. Spitzer/IRS observations
D. A. Garcia-Hernandez, N. Kameswara Rao, David L. Lambert
Spitzer/IRS spectra from 5 to 37 um for a complete sample of 31 R Coronae Borealis stars (RCBs) are presented. These spectra are combined with optical and near-infrared photometry…
