Molecular Line Studies of Circumstellar Envelopes

open access: yes, 1982
This dissertation addresses several problems in the study of the dusty, gaseous envelopes commonly found around highly evolved stars. Most of the objects observed are M or N giants and are typically long-period variables.

Abundance of Ammonia in Carbon-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars as Observed by Herschel/HIFI—A Rotational Diagram Approach

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Herschel Heterodyne Instrument for the Far-Infrared (HIFI) obtained high-resolution spectroscopic observations of numerous Galactic and extragalactic sources, including 12 carbon-rich (C-rich) Galactic asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars.

Dance to Demise—How Massive Stars May Form Dense Circumstellar Shells before Explosion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the evolution of red supergiant (RSG) progenitors of core-collapse supernovae (SNe) with initial masses between 12 and 20 M _⊙ , focusing on the effects of enhanced mass loss due to pulsation-driven instabilities in their envelopes and ...

Al-26 and circumstellar envelopes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1995
The effects of the radioactive decay of Al-26 on the circumstellar envelopes of asymptotic giant branch stars are analyzed. The gamma-rays emitted by the product nucleus Mg-26 escape most envelopes, but the beta-decay positrons are stopped and can ionize and heat the gas.

Modern Construction Envelopes

open access: yes, 2014
The second edition of Modern Construction Envelopes was originally based on the two books by Watts, MC Roofs and MC Facades. Both volumes were gathered into one single volume. Using current examples by renowned architects, Watts presents the constructive

Investigating Asymmetry Development from SiO to H2O Maser Regions in VX Sagittarii

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Simultaneous very-long-baseline interferometry monitoring observations of H _2 O and SiO masers toward VX Sagittarii were conducted from 2014 February to 2019 January.

Calcium Chemistry in Carbon-rich Circumstellar Environments: The Laboratory and Astronomical Discovery of Calcium Dicarbide, CaC2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Calcium dicarbide, CaC _2 , has been characterized at high resolution in the laboratory, and its main isotopologue, ^40 CaC _2 , has been assigned to 14 rotational emission lines between 14 and 115 GHz, including 12 previously unassigned lines, in the ...
