THE ASTROSPHERE OF THE ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STAR IRC+10216 [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2010 We have discovered a very extended shock structure (i.e., with a diameter of about 24 arcmin) surrounding the well-known carbon star IRC+10216 in ultraviolet images taken with the GALEX satellite. We conclude that this structure results from the interaction of IRC+10216's molecular wind with the interstellar medium (ISM), as it moves through the latter.

Journal of Space Weather and Space ClimateIn the heliosphere, solar cycle-related changes in galactic cosmic ray (GCR) intensities have long been known to arise as a direct consequence of solar cyclic changes in, for example, the heliospheric magnetic field and the solar tilt angle.

On the Diversity of M-star Astrospheres and the Role of Galactic Cosmic Rays Within [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2020 Abstract With upcoming missions such as the James Webb Space Telescope, the European Extremely Large Telescope, and the Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-survey, we soon will be on the verge of detecting and characterizing Earth-like exoplanetary atmospheres for the first time.

, 2022 Context. The structure of astrospheres depends on the interaction between the host star and the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM). Observations of astrospheres offer new opportunities to learn about the details of this interaction. Aims.

Complementary interstellar detections from the heliotail
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesThe heliosphere is a protective shield around the solar system created by the Sun’s interaction with the local interstellar medium (LISM) through the solar wind, transients, and interplanetary magnetic field.

Lyman-alpha observations of astrospheres
, 2014 Charge-exchange reactions between outflowing stellar wind protons and interstellar neutral hydrogen atoms entering a stellar astrosphere produce a region of piled-up-decelerated neutral hydrogen called the hydrogen wall. Absorption by this gas, which is observed in stellar Lyman-alpha emission lines, provides the only viable technique at this time for ...
