Dust emission from IRC + 10216
Infrared emission from the dust shell around IRC+10216 is analysed in detail, employing a self-consistent model for radiatively driven winds around late-type stars that couples the equations of motion and radiative transfer in the dust. The resulting model provides agreement with the wealth of available data, including the spectral energy distribution in the range 0.5–1000 μm, and visibility an...
متن کاملTentative detection of phosphine in IRC +10216
Aims. The JK = 10−00 rotational transition of phosphine (PH3) at 267 GHz has been tentatively identified with a TMB ∼ 40 mK spectral line observed with the IRAM 30-m telescope in the C-star envelope IRC +10216. Methods. A radiative transfer model was used to fit the observed line profile. Results. The derived PH3 abundance relative to H2 is 6 × 10−9, although it may have a large uncertainty due...
متن کاملA Submillimeter HCN Laser in IRC +10216.
We report the detection of a strong submillimeter-wavelength HCN laser line at a frequency near 805 GHz toward the carbon star IRC +10216. This line, the J=9-8 rotational transition within the (0400) vibrationally excited state, is one of a series of HCN laser lines that were first detected in the laboratory in the early days of laser spectroscopy. Since its lower energy level is 4200 K above t...
متن کاملDetection of Vibrationally Excited Co in Irc+10216
Using the Submillimeter Array we have detected the J = 3–2 and 2–1 rotational transitions from within the first vibrationally excited state of CO toward the extreme carbon star IRC+10216 (CW Leo). The emission remains spatially unresolved with an angular resolution of ∼ 2′′ and, given that the lines originate from energy levels that are ∼ 3100 K above the ground state, almost certainly originat...
متن کاملMolecular shells in IRC+10216: tracing the mass loss history,.
Thermally-pulsating AGB stars provide three-fourths of the matter returned to the interstellar medium. The mass and chemical composition of their ejecta largely control the chemical evolution of galaxies. Yet, both the mass loss process and the gas chemical composition remain poorly understood. We present maps of the extended 12CO and 13CO emissions in IRC+10216, the envelope of CW Leo, the hig...
