Simulating H2O Maser Emission in the Mass Outflows from Evolved Stars
The combination of a time-dependent spherically symmetric hydrodynamic model of stellar atmosphere pulsation and a radiation transport code, which incorporates maser saturation theory, enabled us to synthesise...

A Model for the Variability of SiO Masers in Mira Variables
Mass loss from M-Miras makes a major contribution to the injection of heavy elements into the interstellar medium and is a key stage in stellar evolution in which a late-type star embarks on its route towards ...

Theoretical Modelling of SiO Maser Lineshapes
Various factors affecting the lineshapes of SiO masers have been considered: saturation, competitive gain, velocity redistribution and properties of the circumstellar envelope supporting the masers. The linesh...
