ATOMIUM: ALMA tracing the origins of molecules in dust forming oxygen rich M-type stars: Motivation, sample, calibration, and initial results
C. A. Gottlieb, L. Decin, A. M. S. Richards +33
This overview paper presents ATOMIUM, a Large Programme in Cycle 6 with the Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array (ALMA). The goal of ATOMIUM is to understand the dynamics a…
Molecules, shocks, and disk in the axi-symmetric wind of the MS-type AGB star RS Cancri
J. M. Winters, D. T. Hoai, K. T. Wong +6
The latest evolutionary phases of low- and intermediate mass stars are characterized by complex physical processes like turbulence, convection, stellar pulsations, magnetic fields,…
(Sub)stellar companions shape the winds of evolved stars
L. Decin, M. Montargès, A. M. S. Richards +32
Binary interactions dominate the evolution of massive stars, but their role is less clear for low- and intermediate-mass stars. The evolution of a spherical wind from an asymptotic…
Circumstellar ammonia in oxygen-rich evolved stars
K. T. Wong, K. M. Menten, T. Kamiński +3
The circumstellar ammonia (NH) chemistry in evolved stars is poorly understood. Previous observations and modelling showed that NH abundance in oxygen-rich stars is several…
An observational study of dust nucleation in Mira ( Ceti): II. Titanium oxides are negligible for nucleation at high temperatures
T. Kamiński, H. S. P. Müller, M. R. Schmidt +7
The formation of silicate dust in oxygen-rich envelopes of evolved stars is thought to be initiated by formation of seed particles that can withstand the high temperatures close to…
An observational study of dust nucleation in Mira ( Ceti): I. Variable features of AlO and other Al-bearing species
T. Kamiński, K. T. Wong, M. R. Schmidt +8
Context: Dust is efficiently produced by cool giant stars, but the condensation of inorganic dust is poorly understood. Aims: Identify and characterize aluminum bearing species in…
