===================================================================== ==> in this proposal, more time is being requested for keriksso.agbspec2 ==> this proposal requests an upgrade from priority 3 for keriksso.agbspec2 ===================================================================== we are applying for discretionary time to make another iso sws06 observation of the outer photosphere and the inner regions of the circumstellar shell of the agb star r doradus for approximately 15 minutes. the aim is to gain further insight into these regions. physical and chemical conditions. we will observe the wavelength range where two q-branches of co2 are found (13.9 um and 15.0 um). this observation would confirm or disprove a hypothesis for a finding made from iso data in the agbspec2 program (pi: kjell eriksson, observer id: keriksso). this would increase the scientific return of iso we believe.

Mission Description
The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) was the worlds first true orbiting infrared observatory. Equipped with four highly-sophisticated and versatile scientific instruments, it was launched by Ariane in November 1995 and provided astronomers world-wide with a facility of unprecedented sensitivity and capabilities for a detailed exploration of the Universe at infrared wavelengths.
