Dear Cool Evolved Stars people! (Or should we just call ourselves "Cool" people?)
many thanks to those having submitted abstracts and announcements, and you all for having signed up or somehow found this link - we’re trying to get the word out that we’ve got our scientific community’s newsletter again, but we need your help in being inclusive. Please tell others around you about it, and of course don’t forget to submit your own items. Feel free to interpret the announcements section with some liberty - we’ll try to give you space if appropriate.
Likewise, we are very open minded as to the scope of Cool Evolved Stars, but we faced an unusual dilemma this month, with a paper submitted on exoplanetary atmospheres. Clearly, this is too far removed from stars, but it would certainly have been interesting to some of us as it deals with atmospheric molecules. If that interests you, we’d encourage you to look it up on https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.16787 but also to subscribe to, read and submit to the AstroChemical Newsletter at https://acn.astrochem-tools.org/
Anyway, ten abstracts await you below to quench your scientific thirst, and three announcements: an invitation to contribute to a book, a conference and - junior colleagues pay attention - job openings!
With our very best wishes,
Jacco van Loon, Marie Van de Sande, Taïssa Danilovich, Miguel Montargès and the supporting team at Observatoire de Paris Meudon
