Rotational spectra of vibrationally excited AlO and TiO in oxygen rich stars
T. Danilovich, C. A. Gottlieb, L. Decin +6
Rotational transitions in vibrationally excited AlO and TiO -- two possible precursors of dust -- were observed in the 300 GHz range (1 mm wavelength) towards the oxygen rich AGB s…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: The fundamentals of outflows from evolved stars
E. De Beck, M. L. Boyer, V. Bujarrabal +16
Models of the chemical evolution of the interstellar medium, galaxies, and the Universe rely on our understanding of the amounts and chemical composition of the material returned b…
Submillimeter-wave emission of three Galactic red novae: cool molecular outflows produced by stellar mergers
T. Kaminski, W. Steffen, R. Tylenda +3
Red novae are optical transients erupting at luminosities typically higher than those of classical novae. Their outbursts are believed to be caused by stellar mergers. We present m…
Widespread HCN maser emission in carbon-rich evolved stars
K. M. Menten, F. Wyrowski, D. Keller +1
Context. HCN is a major constituent of the circumstellar envelopes of carbon-rich evolved stars, and rotational lines from within its vibrationally excited states probe parts of th…
Organic molecules, ions, and rare isotopologues in the remnant of the stellar-merger candidate, CK Vulpeculae (Nova 1670)
T. Kamiński, K. M. Menten, R. Tylenda +3
CK Vul is a star whose outburst was observed in 1670-72. A stellar-merger event was proposed to explain its ancient eruption. Aims: We aim to investigate the composition of the mol…
Resolving the extended atmosphere and the inner wind of Mira ( Ceti) with long ALMA baselines
K. T. Wong, T. Kamiński, K. M. Menten +1
The prototypical Mira variable, Cet (Mira), has been observed as a Science Verification target in the 2014 ALMA Long Baseline Campaign with a longest baseline of 15 km. ALMA cl…
