Scientific paper

With the discovery by Spitzer of a bow shock structure around the AGB star, R Hydrae, a new class of circumstellar - interstellar interaction physics is open to exploration. We propose IRS and MIPS-SED spectroscopy of the bow shock structure around R Hya. The goal of the spectroscopy is to provide temperature and density diagnostics for the material in the shocked region. These measurements will provide context for analysis of variation of mass loss and gas to dust ratio, as well as exploration of the destruction of circumstellar dust at this well-defined interstellar boundary.
