(Sub) stellar companions shape the winds of evolved stars
Binary interactions dominate the evolution of massive stars, but their role is less clear for low-
and intermediate-mass stars. The evolution of a spherical wind from an asymptotic giant …

The impact of stellar companion UV photons on the chemistry of the circumstellar environments of AGB stars
Spherical asymmetries are prevalent within the outflows of AGB stars. Since binary
interaction with a stellar or planetary companion is thought to be the underlying mechanism …
