The physical and chemical properties of circumstellar environments around evolved stars

FORS1-CWLeo V band image of the AGB star IRC+10216. A&A / Mauron & Huggins 1999, A&A 349: 203-208.


The goal: HIFI Guaranteed Time Key Project aimed to gain deeper insight into the structure, thermodynamics, kinematics and chemistry of circumstellar envelopes and into the mass-loss history of evolved stars.


The Team: V. Bujarrabal (PI), J. Alcolea, J. Cernicharo, L. Decin, C. Dominik, K. Justtanont, A. de Koter, A.P. Marston, G. Melnick, K. Menten, D. Neufeld, H. Olofsson, P. Planesas, M. Pulecka, M. Schmidt, F. Schöier, R. Szczerba, D. Teyssier, R. Waters.
