APEX Explores the Onset of Pulsation-Driven Winds in Giant Stars

Astronomers from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics used the APEX submillimeter telescope to study the velocity of the CO gas in the wind of the giant star EU Del to help constrain the mechanism responsible for driving its wind. Nearly all stars have winds. The Sun’s wind, which originates from its hot outer layer (corona), […]
