Infrared Colors and Variability of Evolved Stars from COBE DIRBE Data
For a complete 12 μm flux-limited sample of 207 IRAS sources (F12 ≥ 150 Jy, |b| ≥ 5), the majority of which are AGB stars (∼87%), we have extracted light curves in seven infrared bands between 1.25 μm − 60 μm using the database of the Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) instrument on the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite. Using previous infrared surveys, we filtered these l...
متن کاملReprocessing the Hipparcos data of evolved stars
We analyze the K band luminosities of a sample of galactic long-period variables using parallaxes measured by the Hipparcos mission. The parallaxes are in most cases re-computed from the Hipparcos Intermediate Astrometric Data using improved astrometric fits and chromaticity corrections. The K band magnitudes are taken from the literature and from measurements by COBE, and are corrected for int...
متن کاملMid-infrared Interferometry of Dust around Massive Evolved Stars
We report long-baseline interferometric measurements of circumstellar dust aroundmassive evolved stars with the MIDI instrument on theVeryLarge Telescope Interferometer and provide spectrally dispersed visibilities in the 8Y13 m wavelength band. We also present diffraction-limited observations at 10.7 m on the Keck Telescope with baselines up to 8.7 m, which explore larger scale structure. We h...
متن کاملThe Colors of the Stars
The brightness and colors of the stars have fascinated observers of the night sky for millennia. It is difficult however, to portray the depth and amount of visual information of the heavens on actual displays. This paper applies principles of reproduction, color science, and perception, to generate attractive and information-rich starfield images. Although the casual appearance of stars is blu...
متن کاملSpitzer SAGE survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud II: Evolved Stars and Infrared Color Magnitude Diagrams
Color–magnitude diagrams (CMDs) are presented for the Spitzer SAGE (Surveying the Agents of a Galaxy’s Evolution) survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). IRAC and MIPS 24 μm epoch one data are presented. These data represent the deepest, widest mid–infrared CMDs of their kind ever produced in the LMC. Combined with the 2MASS survey, the diagrams are used to delineate the evolved stellar pop...
