Asymptotic Giant Branch Variables in Nearby Galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2018 AbstractCertain types of large amplitude AGB variable are proving to be powerful distance indicators that will rival Cepheids in the James Webb Space Telescope era of high precision infrared photometry. These are predominantly found in old populations and have low mass progenitors.

Study of ambient environment around Asymptotic Giant Branch Carbon Star: IRAS 01142+6306
Bibechana, 2018 We studied dust environment such as flux, temperature, mass and inclination angle of the cavity structure around the C-rich Asymptotic giant branch star in 60 μm and 100 μm wavelengths band using Infrared Astronomical Survey. We observed the data of AGB

EVOLUTION OF THERMALLY PULSING ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STARS. IV. CONSTRAINING MASS LOSS AND LIFETIMES OF LOW MASS, LOW METALLICITY AGB STARS [PDF]
, 2014 The evolution and lifetimes of thermally pulsating asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) stars suffer from significant uncertainties. In this work, we analyze the numbers and luminosity functions of TP-AGB stars in six quiescent, low metallicity ([Fe/H] ≲ −0 ...

Mass Losing Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars And Supergiants [PDF]
arXiv: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics, 2016 This paper presents a summary of four invited and twelve contributed presentations on asymptotic giant branch stars and red supergiants, given over the course of two afternoon splinter sessions at the 19th Cool Stars Workshop. It highlights both recent observations and recent theory, with some emphasis on high spatial resolution, over a wide range of ...
