| dc.description | We present self-consistent dynamical models for dust driven winds of carbon-rich AGB stars. The models are based on the coupled system of frequency-dependent radiation hydrodynamics and time-dependent dust formation. We investigate in detail how the wind properties of the models are influenced by the micro-physical properties of the dust grains that enter as parameters. The models are now at a level where it is necessary to be quantitatively consistent when choosing the dust properties that enters as input into the models. At our current level of sophistication the choice of dust parameters is significant for the derived outflow velocity, the degree of condensation and the estimated mass loss rates of the models. In the transition between models with and without mass-loss the choice ofmicro-physical parameters turns out to be very significant for whether a particular set of stellar parameters will give rise to a dust-driven mass loss or not. | |
