About this eBook

Door middel van gedetailleerde studies aan de infrarood gegevens van oude sterren is het stof rond koolstofrijke Rode Reuzen onderzocht. De aanwezigheid van een aantal nieuwe materialen in de ruimte is ontdekt. Daarmee is een completer beeld van de samenstelling, locatie en het lot van het stof rond koolstofrijke oude sterren verkregen. Daarmee verschaffen de in dit proefschrift gepresenteerde studies een rijker inzicht in het stof rond oude sterren en deze sterren zelf.
