Context. To progress in the understanding of evolution massive stars one needs to constrain mass-loss and determine phenomenon responsible for ejection matter an its reorganization circumstellar environment Aims. In order test various mass-ejection processes, we probed geometry kinematics dust gas surrounding A[e] supergiant HD 62623. Methods. We used combined high spectral spatial resolution covered by VLTI/AMBER instrument. Thanks a new multiwavelength optical/IR interferometry imaging...
Context. Classical Be stars are hot non-supergiant surrounded by a gaseous circumstellar disk that is responsible for the observed infrared-excess and emission lines. The phenomena involved in formation still remain highly debated.
Zinc sulfide (ZnS) thin films have been deposited on Si (1 0 0) substrate using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that the are (0 2) preferentially oriented with c-axis-oriented wurtzite structure. The crystallinity has found to improve film thickness in 180–6000 nm range. Film structure analyzed by XRD, scanning electron microscope, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopies, while stoichiometry verified energy-dispersive spectroscopy particle-induced emission...

The Be phenomenon is present in about 20$\%$ of the B-type stars. stars show variability on a broad range timescales, which most cases related to presence circumstellar disk variable size and structure. For this reason time resolved survey highly desirable order understand mechanisms formation are still poorly understood. In addition, complete observational sample would improve statistical significance study stellar parameters. "Be Stars Observation Survey" (BeSOS) containing reduced spectra...
B[e] stars are hot surrounded by circumstellar gas and dust responsible for the presence of emission lines IR-excess in their spectra. How can be formed this highly illuminated diluted environment remains an open issue. HD 62623 is one very few A-type supergiants showing phenomenon.

Be stars are rapid rotators surrounded by a gaseous disk envelope whose origin is still under debate. This responsible for observed emission lines and large infrared excess.

Abstract The circumstellar disk density distributions for a sample of 63 Be southern stars from the BeSOS survey were found by modeling their H α emission line profiles. These densities used to compute masses and angular momenta sample. Average values mass are 3.4 × 10 −9 9.5 −10 M ⋆ early (B0–B3) late (B4–B9) spectral types, respectively. We also find that range momentum relative star is (150–200) J / (100–150) , again early- late-type stars, different between at 1% level significance....

V1247 Orionis harbours a pre-transitional disc with partially cleared gap. Earlier interferometric and polarimetric observations revealed strong asymmetries both in the gap region outer disc. The presence of companion was inferred to explain these asymmetric structures ongoing clearing. Using an extensive set multi-wavelength multi-epoch we aimed identify origin previously detected asymmetries. We have observed Ori at three epochs spanning $\sim678$ days using sparse aperture masking...
TYC 8241 2652 1 is a young star that showed strong mid-infrared (mid-IR, 8-25 mu) excess in all observations before 2008 consistent with dusty disk. Between and 2010 the mid-IR luminosity of this system dropped dramatically by at least factor 30 suggesting loss dust mass an order magnitude or more.

Active hot stars are (Teff ≥ 8000 K) exhibiting emission lines (namely hydrogen lines) and IR excess which both originate in a circumstellar environment. In this paper we present details the SIMECA (SImulation pour Etoiles Chaudes Actives) code is only freely available to model gaseous environment of active stars. It computes line profiles, Spectral Energy Distributions (SED) intensity maps, can be directly compared high angular resolution observations.
