Low-mass supernovae in the early Galactic halo: source of the double r/s-process enriched halo stars?

Albert A. Zijlstra

Several stars at the low-metallicity extreme of the Galactic halo ([Fe/H]=-2.5) show strong enhancements of both s-process and r-process elements. The presence of s-process element…

Optical Spectroscopy of IRAS 02091+6333

S. Kimeswenger, A. Bacher, M. Emprechtinger +8

We present a detailed spectroscopic investigation, spanning four winters, of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star IRAS 02091+6333. Zijlstra & Weinberger (2002) found a giant wall…

Long Period Variables detected by ISO in the SMC

M. -R. L. Cioni, J. A. D. L. Blommaert, M. A. T. Groenewegen +8

This article presents the study of the light-curves extracted from the MACHO database of a sample of stars observed by the ISO in the SMC. These stars belong to the ISO-Mini-Survey…

Obscured Asymptotic Giant Branch Variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Period-Luminosity Relation

Patricia A. Whitelock, Michael W. Feast, Jacco Th. van Loon +1

The characteristics of oxygen-rich and carbon-rich, large amplitude (dK>0.4 mag), asymptotic giant branch variables in the Large Magellanic Clouds are discussed, with an emphasis o…

The mineralogy, geometry and mass-loss history of IRAS 16342-3814

C. Dijkstra, L. B. F. M. Waters, F. Kemper +5

We present the 2-200 um Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) spectrum and 3.8-20 um ISAAC and TIMMI2 images of the extreme OH/IR star IRAS 16342-3814. Amorphous silicate absorption fea…

The superwind mass-loss rate of the metal-poor carbon star LI-LMC 1813 in the LMC cluster KMHK 1603

Jacco Th. van Loon, Jonathan R. Marshall, Mikako Matsuura +1

LI-LMC 1813 is a dust-enshrouded Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) star, located in the small open cluster KMHK 1603 near the rim of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Optical and infra…
