JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—V. The White Dwarfs Cooling Sequence of M4

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT We combine infrared (IR) observations collected by the James Webb Space Telescope with optical deep images by the Hubble Space Telescope taken ~20 years earlier to compute proper‐motion membership for the globular cluster (GC) M4 (NGC 6121) along its entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS).

Circumstellar dust [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
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 ...

Early Planet Formation in Embedded Disks (eDisk). XIII. Aligned Disks with Nonsettled Dust around the Newly Resolved Class 0 Protobinary R CrA IRAS 32

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Young protostellar binary systems, with expected ages less than ∼10 ^5 yr, are little modified since birth, providing key clues to binary formation and evolution. We present a first look at the young, Class 0 binary protostellar system R CrA IRAS 32 from

Insights Into the Gas‐Phase Structure and Internal Dynamics of Diphenylsilane: A Broadband Rotational Spectroscopy Study

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 26, Issue 2, January 14, 2025.
The structure of diphenylsilane could be determined from the rotational spectra of all its singly substituted heavy atom isotopologues. A comparison with its oxygen analogue diphenylether revealed some interesting differences in the internal dynamics as well as in the gas‐phase structure.

Molecules, Dust and the Structure of Circumstellar Envelopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
. Radio continuum and spectral line emission from the photospheres and circumstellar shells of evolved cool giant stars trace their size, shape and mass loss history.

First direct detection of large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on asteroid (162173) Ryugu samples: An interstellar heritage

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 4, Issue 4, October 2024.
Large free aromatic species, with up to 61 carbon atoms, were detected in grains of the Ryugu carbonaceous asteroid using ultra‐sensitive two‐step laser mass spectrometry. This discovery confirms the presence of large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the interstellar medium and provides new information on the formation and evolution of organic ...

Radiative Pressure on Fractal Dust Grains in Oxygen-rich AGB Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
There is still considerable debate on the exact composition of grains formed in the outflows of O-rich, asymptotic giant branch stars. Estimates of the expected condensation distances based on radiative transfer calculations show that iron-free silicates

Electron microscopy observations of the diversity of Ryugu organic matter and its relationship to minerals at the micro‐ to nano‐scale

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 59, Issue 8, Page 2023-2043, August 2024.
Abstract Transmission electron microscopy analyses of Hayabusa2 samples show that Ryugu organic matter exhibits a range of morphologies, elemental compositions, and carbon functional chemistries consistent with those of carbonaceous chondrites that have experienced low‐temperature aqueous alteration.

MODELS OF CIRCUMSTELLAR MASERS IN BIPOLAR OUTFLOWS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Sources of molecular maser radio emission in envelopes of late-type variable stars (red giants and supergiants) are considered. Radio and optical data on asymmetry of mass loss process in red giants are briefly reviewed.
