SOFIA/FORCAST Observations of the Luminous Blue Variable Candidates MN 90 and HD 168625

Ryan Arneson, Dinesh Shenoy, Nathan Smith +1

We present SOFIA/FORCAST imaging of the circumstellar dust shells surrounding the luminous blue variable (LBV) candidates MN 90 and HD 168625 to quantify the mineral abundances of…

Rise and fall of the dust shell of the classical nova V339 Delphini

A. Evans, D. P. K. Banerjee, R. D. Gehrz +16

We present infrared spectroscopy of the classical nova V339 Delphini, obtained over a year period. The infrared emission lines were initially symmetrical, with HWHM velocit…
