Multi-wavelength Explorations of Evolved Stars and Exoplanets
Event Start:
2021-07-05T15:00:00
Event End:
2021-07-05T16:00:00
Event Information:
Multi-wavelength observations, from the ultraviolet (UV) to the infrared (IR) and beyond, are powerful tools for exploring evolved stars and characterizing exoplanets. Cool evolved stars contribute significantly to the interstellar medium (ISM) enrichment, via gas and dust produced in their atmospheres. Yet, a thorough understanding of their mass loss mechanism(s) remains challenging. Exploring cool evolved stars' upper layers is thus essential to unraveling their mass loss history and its influence on the composition of the ISM and Galactic ecology.
