Beginning of ReadMe : J/A+A/506/1277 Modelling of Magellanic Cloud C/O stars (Groenewegen+, 2009) ================================================================================ Luminosities and mass-loss rates of SMC and LMC AGB stars and red supergiants. Groenewegen M.A.T., Sloan G.C., Soszynski I., Petersen E.A. <Astron. Astrophys. 506, 1277 (2009)> =2009A&A...506.1277G ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Magellanic Clouds ; Stars, giant ; Stars, supergiant ; Mass loss Keywords: stars: AGB and post-AGB - stars: mass loss - Magellanic Clouds Abstract: Mass loss is one of the fundamental properties of Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars, and through the enrichment of the interstellar medium, AGB stars are key players in the life cycle of dust and gas in the universe. However, a quantitative understanding of the mass-loss process is still largely lacking, particularly its dependence on metallicity. To investigate the relation between mass loss, luminosity and pulsation period for a large sample of evolved stars in the Small and Large Magellanic Cloud. Description: Dust radiative transfer models are presented for 101 carbon stars and 86 oxygen-rich evolved stars in the Magellanic Clouds for which 5-35um Spitzer IRS spectra are available. The spectra are complemented with available optical and infrared photometry to construct the spectral energy distribution. A minimisation procedure is used to fit luminosity, mass-loss rate and dust temperature at the inner radius. Different effective temperatures and dust content are also considered. Periods from the literature and from new OGLE-III data are compiled and derived.
