The abundance of SiS in circumstellar envelopes around AGB stars

open access: yes, 2007
New SiS multi-transition (sub-)millimetre line observations of a sample of AGB stars with varying photospheric C/O-ratios and mass-loss rates are presented.

Relation between the luminosity of young stellar objects and their circumstellar environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present a new model-independent method of comparison of NIR visibility data of YSOs. The method is based on scaling the measured baseline with the YSO's distance and luminosity, which removes the dependence of visibility on these two variables. We use

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.

Discovery of Volatile Gas in the Giant Impact Disk Around the 150 Myr Old HD 23514

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report the discovery of CO _2 gas emission around HD 23514, an F5V star in the ∼150 Myr old Pleiades cluster, hosting one of the rare giant-impact disks with unique mineralogy dominated by silica dust. We show that the dust feature remains stable over

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 ...

Near-infrared Integral-field Spectroscopy of the Wind Forming Region of CW Leo

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The circumstellar envelope of the carbon star CW Leo exhibited various unexpected changes in recent optical imaging observations. We have performed a follow-up observation using the Near-infrared Integral-Field Spectrograph (NIFS) equipped on the Gemini ...

The Ionization Energies of Dust-Forming Metal Oxide Clusters

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Stellar dust grains are predominantly composed of mineralic, anorganic material forming in the circumstellar envelopes of oxygen-rich AGB stars. However, the initial stage of the dust synthesis, or its nucleation, is not well understood.

Circumstellar molecular line emission from S-type AGB stars: Mass-loss rates and SiO abundances

open access: yes, 2009
The main aim is to derive reliable mass-loss rates and circumstellar SiO abundances for a sample of 40 S-type AGB stars based on new multi-transitional CO and SiO radio line observations.

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.

The Unusual Spitzer Spectrum of the Carbon Star IRAS 04496–6958: A Different Condensation Sequence in the LMC? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present a new Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) spectrum of the carbon star IRAS 04496-6958 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, which exhibits a fairly broad absorption feature at ~11 μm.
