Description

Herschel data from the "Mass-loss of Evolved StarS" (MESS) Guaranteed-Time Key Program are available here. IRSA is serving the MESS PACS imaging of 108 evolved stars. This is Herschel program KPGT_mgroen01_1. The sample of AGB stars has been selected to cover all chemical types (M-, S-, C-stars), variability types (irregular, semi-regular, Miras) and periods, and mass-loss rates. Stars have been selected to have high IRAS fluxes and low background levels.
