CNO Abundances of Hydrogen-Deficient Carbon and R Coronae Borealis Stars: A View of the Nucleosynthesis in a White Dwarf Merger
We present high-resolution (R ~ 50, 000) observations of near-IR transitions of CO and CN of the five known hydrogen-deficient carbon (HdC) stars and four R...
CNO behaviour in planet-harbouring stars. I. Nitrogen abundances in stars with planets
Context. Carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen (CNO) are key elements in stellar formation and evolution, and their abundances should also have a significant impact on...
CNO behaviour in planet-harbouring stars. II. Carbon abundances in stars with and without planets using the CH band
Context. Carbon, oxygen and nitrogen (CNO) are key elements in stellar formation and evolution, and their abundances should also have a significant impact on...
CO (3-2) Observations of Early-Type Galaxies with the Heinrich Hertz Telescope
We present Heinrich Hertz Telescope CO (3-2) observations of a sample of 10 early-type galaxies detected both in far-infrared (IRAS) and in CO (1-0). Six of the...
CO /J = 2-1/ observations of southern H II regions
Maps in the CO (J = 2-1) line of the southern H II region complexes Carina Nebula and G333.6-0.2/RCW 106 are presented and discussed. Results for the Carina...
We report high-sensitivity millimeter-wave CO observations of recently discovered bipolar planetary nebulae (PNe). Three objects (BV 5-1, K 3-94 and K 3-24)...
CO emission from candidate photo-dissociation regions in M 81
Context: .At least a fraction of the atomic hydrogen in spiral galaxies is suspected to be the result of molecular hydrogen which has been dissociated by...
CO emission in distant galaxies on and above the main sequence
We present the detection of multiple carbon monoxide CO line transitions with ALMA in a few tens of infrared-selected galaxies on and above the main sequence at...
