Title

Mass-loss of Evolved StarS

Description

Herschel data from the "Mass-loss of Evolved StarS" (MESS) Guaranteed-Time Key Program are available here. IRSA is serving the MESS PACS imaging of 108 evolved stars. This is Herschel program KPGT_mgroen01_1.

The sample of AGB stars has been selected to cover all chemical types (M-, S-, C-stars), variability types (irregular, semi-regular, Miras) and periods, and mass-loss rates. Stars have been selected to have high IRAS fluxes and low background levels.

This dataset or service is made available by the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) at IPAC, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
