Scientific paper

A comprehensive analysis of radiative transfer through the star's circumstellar dust envelope is presently used to model the IR, mm-wave and RF continuum emission from the mass-losing carbon star IRC + 10 deg 216 at maximum IR brightness. It is on this basis demonstrated that recent cm-continuum RF emission may be accounted for on the bases of (1) the sum of thermal dust emission from amorphous carbon dust grains in the circumstellar envelope, in conjunction with (2) the emission from the stellar photosphere, which becomes important when the dust shell becomes optically thin to the underlying stellar photosphere.
