Scientific paper

Results are presented of measurements, based on high-resolution long-slit spectroscopic observations, of the radial velocity structure of the circumstellar envelope surrounding the late-type star IRAS 09371 + 1212 (Frosty Leo nebula). The velocities observed, referred to the CO dynamic center, range from 4 to 15 km/sec. In contrast to the symmetry of the brightness profile, the velocity profile of the nebula exhibits a marked asymmetry.
