Chemical Complexity in an Old Star
June 27, 2007 / Posted by: Shige Abe
Scientists from NAI’s University of Arizona Team have studied the outflow of VY Canis Majoris, an oxygen-rich supergiant star. Thier results show that, against expectations, an old, oxygen-rich star can synthesize a chemically varied molecular cocktail. The study is published in this week’s Nature, and a News and Views about the paper is also available.
