The Carbon-Rich Gas in the Beta Pictoris Circumstellar Disk

open access: yes, 2006
The edge-on disk surrounding the nearby young star Beta Pictoris is the archetype of the "debris disks", which are composed of dust and gas produced by collisions and evaporation of planetesimals, analogues of Solar System comets and asteroids. These disks provide a window on the formation and early evolution of terrestrial planets.

Mid-infrared JWST Spectra of Carbon Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Mid-infrared spectra from the Medium Resolution Spectrometer (MRS) on the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed the molecular chemistry of carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud with better resolution and sensitivity than previously possible.

Searching for Imprints of Circumstellar Material in the Ultraviolet Spectra of Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), having large and standard luminosities, are our primary dark energy probe. Although we believe that SNe Ia are produced by white dwarfs (WDs) in binary systems, the type of companion star is still unclear.

A Theoretical Study of Carbon Nanotube Formation: Carriers of the Diffuse Interstellar Bands?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been conducted to probe the formation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from graphitic sheets in the presence of a simulated circumstellar shock wave.

Infrared Spectral Energy Distribution Modeling of Velocity Excess in Maser Sources: Identifying Incipient Water Fountain Candidates

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigated whether “velocity excess” in circumstellar maser lines can diagnose the earliest evolutionary phases of water fountains (WFs). Here, we define “velocity excess” as maser emission (e.g., H _2 O 22.235 GHz or OH 1665/1667 MHz) detected at ...

Thermal Structure and Millimeter Emission from a Protoplanetary Disk with Embedded Protoplanets from Radiative Transfer Modeling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The discovery of protoplanets and circumplanetary disks provides a unique opportunity to characterize planet formation through observations. Massive protoplanets shape the physical and chemical structure of their host circumstellar disk by accretion ...

Final Moments. II. Observational Properties and Physical Modeling of Circumstellar-material-interacting Type II Supernovae

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present ultraviolet/optical/near-infrared observations and modeling of Type II supernovae (SNe II) whose early time ( δ t < 2 days) spectra show transient, narrow emission lines from shock ionization of confined ( r < 10 ^15 cm) circumstellar material
