Silicon in the dust formation zone of IRC +10216 as observed with PACS and SPIRE on board Herschel

L. Decin, J. Cernicharo, M. J. Barlow +36

The interstellar medium is enriched primarily by matter ejected from evolved low and intermediate mass stars. The outflows from these stars create a circumstellar envelope in which…

Detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid, HCl, in IRC+10216 with the Herschel SPIRE and PACS spectrometers

J. Cernicharo, L. Decin, M. J. Barlow +31

We report on the detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chlorine, HCl) in the carbon-rich star IRC+10216 using the spectroscopic facilities onboard the Herschel satelli…

Herschel-SPIRE FTS spectroscopy of the carbon-rich objects AFGL 2688, AFGL 618 and NGC 7027

R. Wesson, J. Cernicharo, M. J. Barlow +22

We present far-infrared and submillimetre spectra of three carbon-rich evolved objects, AFGL 2688, AFGL 618 and NGC 7027. The spectra were obtained with the SPIRE Fourier transform…

PACS and SPIRE Spectroscopy of the Red Supergiant VY CMa

P. Royer, L. Decin, R. Wesson +34

With a luminosity > 10^5 Lsun and a mass-loss rate of about 2.10-4 Msun/yr, the red supergiant VY CMa truly is a spectacular object. Because of its extreme evolutionary state, it c…

The detached dust shells of AQ And, U Ant, and TT Cyg

F. Kerschbaum, D. Ladjal, R. Ottensamer +14

Detached circumstellar dust shells are detected around three carbon variables using Herschel-PACS. Two of them are already known on the basis of their thermal CO emission and two a…

Herschel PACS and SPIRE imaging of CW Leo

D. Ladjal, M. J. Barlow, M. A. T. Groenewegen +25

Herschel PACS and SPIRE images have been obtained over a 30'x30' area around the well-known carbon star CW Leo (IRC +10 216). An extended structure is found in an incomplete arc of…
