DOI: 10.1002/asna.201913542
Abstract: We present a high resolution detailed abundance analysis for a sample of six post-AGB candidate stars, five of them had not been studied spectroscopically in the optical region. All the analyzed objects are IRAS sources… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/pasa.2025.10125
Abstract: Abstract Post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) binary stars are evolved systems that host circumbinary discs formed through mass loss during late stage binary interactions. Their structural, morphological, kinematic, and chemical similarities to planet-forming discs suggest that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201731493
Abstract: Aims. We aim at describing and understanding binary interaction processes in systems with very evolved companions. Here, we focus on understanding the origin and determining the properties of the high-velocity outflow observed in one such… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staa2274
Abstract: SwSt 1 (PN G001.5-06.7) is a bright and compact planetary nebula containing a late [WC]-type central star. Previous studies suggested that the nebular and stellar lines are slowly changing with time. We studied new and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staa425
Abstract: The timescales on which astronomical dust grows remain poorly understood, with important consequences for our understanding of processes like circumstellar disk evolution and planet formation.A number of post-asymptotic giant branch stars are found to host… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staf1734
Abstract: Cyanopolyynes are a class of long carbon-chain molecules that are widely distributed in interstellar clouds, but their presence in the circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) of evolved stars appears to be limited to only a few well-studied… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz1967
Abstract: We performed a photometric and spectroscopic analysis of two RV Tauri stars: GK Car and GZ Nor. Both objects are surrounded by hot circumstellar dust. Their pulsation periods, derived from ASAS (All Sky Automated Survey)… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fspas.2024.1431250
Abstract: In carbon-rich environment, C2H emission is seen to be associated with HC3N, but whether it can trace the HC3N molecule in oxygen-rich environment is unknown. Here, we have searched for rotational emission from ethynyl radical… read more here.
