Witnessing the emergence of a carbon star [PDF]
Abstract During the late stages of their evolution, Sun-like stars bring the products of nuclear burning to the surface. Most of the carbon in the Universe is believed to originate from stars with masses up to a few solar masses. Although there is a chemical dichotomy between oxygen-rich and carbon-rich evolved stars, the dredge-up ...

Evolution of Neutron-Star, Carbon-Oxygen White-Dwarf Binaries [PDF]
At least one, but more likely two or more, eccentric neutron-star, carbon-oxygen white-dwarf binaries with an unrecycled pulsar have been observed.

Carbon star survey in the Local Group. VII. NGC 3109 a galaxy without a stellar halo [PDF]
We present a CFH12K wide field survey of the carbon star population in and around NGC 3109. Carbon stars, the brightest members of the intermediate-age population, were found nearly exclusively in and near the disk of NGC 3109, ruling out the existence ...

High-Resolution Spectroscopy of Cool Carbon-Rich and Metal-Poor Star HD 209621 [PDF]
Element abundances for HD 209621 obtained earlier display significant discrepancies, especially in the case of CNO and neutron-capture elements. Therefore we performed a detailed analysis of chemical composition of this star using a new high-resolution ...

TU Tau B: The Peculiar “Eclipse” of a Possible Proto-barium Giant
TU Tau (=HD 38218 = HIP 27135) is a binary system consisting of a C-N carbon star primary and an A-type secondary. We report on new photometry and spectroscopy which tracked the recent disappearance of the A-star secondary.

The Carbon Stars Adventure [PDF]
AbstractWe compare in a systematic way spectrometric, photometric and mid-infrared (VLTI/MIDI) interferometric measurements with different types of model atmospheres. Self-consistent dynamic model atmospheres in particular were used to interpret in a consistent way the dynamic behavior of gas and dust.

On the formation of carbon stars [PDF]
The effect of the mass loss on the formation of carbon stars is investigated using different mass-loss formulas including one proposed in this paper, and the results of different formulas are compared with the observed properties of C stars. It is shown that the new formula reproduces well the observed luminosity distribution of AGB stars, the initial ...

The Puzzling Properties of the MACS1149-JD1 Galaxy at z = 9.11
We analyze new JWST NIRCam and NIRSpec data on the redshift 9.11 galaxy MACS1149-JD1 (hereafter JD1). Our NIRCam imaging data reveal that JD1 comprises three spatially distinct components. Our spectroscopic data indicate that JD1 appears dust free but is
