The authors present observations of the SiO maser emission at 43 GHz and of the SiO thermal emission at 87 GHz from evolved stars. As a reference, they have also observed the 115 GHz line of CO, a good tracer of circumstellar matter. The authors conclude from their observations that both maser and thermal SiO emission in M-type stars are probably generated in an extended inner region (radius ⪉10 R*), in which the grains are still not completely formed. Physical conditions for this inner envelope are derived.
