THE SPECTROSCOPY OF THE PULSATING CARBON STAR R Lep
The first results of detailed spectroscopy are presented for carbon Mira R Leporis. This long-period variable is undergoing deep fadings, apparently caused by dust formation around the star.

The Spectral Energy Distribution of HH 30 IRS: Constraining the Circumstellar Dust Size Distribution [PDF]
We present spectral energy distribution (SED) models for the edge-on classical T Tauri star HH 30 IRS that indicate that dust grains have grown to larger than 50 μm within its circumstellar disk.

Circumstellar Disks at White Dwarfs: Observations
The current picture painted by the observations of circumstellar dust at white dwarfs, and the consequent atmospheric pollution, is of a surviving planetary system. This chapter recounts in detail both the discovery and empirical characterization of dust

The close circumstellar environment of the semi-regular S-type star Pi^1 Gruis [PDF]
We study the close circumstellar environment of the nearby S-type star Pi^1 Gruis using high spatial-resolution, mid-infrared observations from the ESO/VLTI.

Chiroptical properties of membrane glycerophospholipids and their chiral backbones
Examination of the interaction of glycerophospholipids with circularly polarized light suggests that direct induction of symmetry breaking to membrane lipids by chiral photons is unlikely. However, anisotropy spectra of certain analogs indicate potential alternative mechanisms for the origins of membrane lipid homochirality, providing insights into the

The presence of dust in the general interstellar medium is inferred from the extinction, polarization, and scattering of starlight; the presence of dark nebulae; interstellar depletions; the observed infrared emission around certain stars and various ...

High Spatial Resolution Mid-IR Imaging of V838 Monocerotis: Evidence of New Circumstellar Dust Creation [PDF]
We report high spatial resolution 11.2 and 18.1 μm imaging of V838 Monocerotis obtained with Gemini Observatory’s Michelle instrument in 2007 March. Strong emission is observed from the unresolved stellar core of V838 Mon in our Gemini imagery and is ...
