和850微米）來觀測。這兩組觀測結果非常強大，可追主序後星周圍包層的徑向變化。

| dc.description.abstract | Evolved stars play a key role in the life cycle of dust in the universe. Through strong
winds and supernovae they inject the material reprocessed in their cores to the interstellar
medium, replenishing the interstellar medium with heavy elements. As evolved stars are
so numerous they are extremely e ective in this role. In this thesis we study this mass loss
delving deep into their past, exploring dust mass-loss events which occurred throughout
their lifetime as evolved stars. The typical treatment of evolved stars has been to only
account for present day mass loss or assume they are quasi-stable undergoing constant
mass loss throughout their lifetime. Historic mass loss can be e ectively traced using
thermal emission from the dust which cools down as it moves away from the central star.
We exploit Herschel/PACS far-infrared (70 m; 100 m and 160 m) and JCMT/SCUBA-
2 sub-millimetre (450 m and 850 m) observations to study this historic mass loss.
These two sets of observations are especially powerful, tracing the radial variation in
the circumstellar envelopes of evolved stars. We establish the presence of variations in
mass loss for a sample of Milky Way evolved stars by studying features observed in
surface-brightness, temperature, dust mass-column density and spectral index of dust
emissivity radial pro les. By comparing these results to predictions for a constant-out
ow
model we nd signi cant deviations between the total dust masses determined for the
two scenarios, demonstrating that the e ect of mass-loss variations cannot be ignored.
We determine the complexities of the detached shell of U Ant with the aid of radiative
transfer modelling, prompting the need for further study at higher angular resolution.
The analysis of the sub-mm periodicity of IRC+10216 and o Ceti, two well-known evolved
stars, shows that it may be possible to use sub-mm light curves of evolved stars to study
the nature of dust formation/destruction in their inner envelope e ectively. The optical and sub-mm light curves of IRC+10216 shows an o set in phase of 3=4. Using radiative
transfer modelling as well as ndings in literature we attribute the sub-mm variability and
phase lag to both the relationship between stellar pulse and dust formation/destruction
cycle as well as a second unknown mechanism which needs to be narrowed down in the
future. Moving on from the Milky Way to the Magellanic clouds we combine cutouts of
evolved stars identi ed in the mid-infrared but not detected in the far-IR. The cutouts are
generated from the Herschel HERITAGE survey at 100 m allowing a statistical study of
the existence or absence of a far-IR component as a result of cold dust in these evolved
stars. We successfully produce detections for three stacks comprised of the highest massloss
rate sources, showcasing the merits of the stacking method. With this thesis we
emphasise the variations in structure and hence historic mass loss of evolved stars. By
doing so we highlight the importance of including these variations in studies which include
dust production by evolved stars in the future. | en_US |
