Interpretation of Circumstellar Masers [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1980
In a short review paper one is often forced to survey the subject in a broad way and to ignore many, perhaps even important, details. Such is the case here. My remarks are intended to indicate how I view the current status of the field. In general, I shall avoid qualifying my statements, even when I am clearly guilty of oversimplification.

H2O masers in circumstellar envelopes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1987
The spatial structure of H/sub 2/O maser emission at 22.235 GHz for 12-late-type variable stars has been measured with a resolution of 0.07 arcsec. The H/sub 2/O maser regions of Mira variables range from 9 or less to 108 AU in total extent, while those of supergiant long-period variables are 300-720 AU in extent.

A database of circumstellar OH masers update

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2022
AbstractThe database of circumstellar OH masers by Engels & Bunzel (2015) was updated to include new 1612, 1665, and 1667 MHz OH maser observations published between 2015 and 2022. A cross-correlation of the database was made with infrared catalogues (AllWISE and 2MASS) and with GAIA DR3.

Stellar masers, circumstellar envelopes and supernova remnants [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractThis paper reviews recent advances in the study or circumstellar masers and masers found toward supernova remnants. The review is organized by science focus area, including the astrophysics of extended stellar atmospheres, stellar mass-loss processes and outflows, late-type evolved stellar evolution, stellar maser excitation and chemistry, and ...

Excited-state OH Masers in the Water Fountain Source IRAS 18460-0151

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Water fountain objects are generally defined as evolved stars with low to intermediate initial mass accompanied by high-velocity molecular jets detectable in the 22.235 GHz H _2 O maser line.

A Search for Asymmetric Kinematic Components in Circumstellar Envelopes Using OH Main Line Masers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Circumstellar OH maser lines are useful for studying the dynamics of the circumstellar envelope (CSE) around evolved stars. This study aims to identify CSEs around cold stars, which exhibit deviations from the spherical expansion, by comparing the ...

FAST Detection of OH Emission in the Carbon-rich Planetary Nebula NGC 7027

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the first detection of the ground-state OH emission line at 1612 MHz toward the prototypical carbon-rich planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7027, utilizing the newly installed ultrawideband (UWB) receiver of the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical ...

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.

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 ...
