Description Currently, our knowledge of the chemistry occurring in the stellar
atmospheres and circumstellar envelopes of AGB stars is far from being
complete. A most powerful method to study the circumstellar chemistry is
broadband spectral scans of individual sources. We propose here to
perform a spectral scan of the high mass-loss rate carbon star
IRAS15194-5115 in selected HIFI bands. Lines will be identified and
radiative transfer modelling will be performed for most of the detected
species to provide circumstellar abundances and isotope ratios. The
results will be compared with those of similar spectral scans of other
types of evolved objects, in particular IRC+10216, to address the
efficiency of various chemical processes and their dependence on the
evolution of the object. A comparison between isotope ratios determined
for IRAS15194-5115 and IRC+10216 will be of special interest since these
stars have most likely taken different evolutionary paths along the AGB.
The proposed observations will improve our understanding of AGB stars and their
role in the chemical evolution of galaxies.

Mission Description Herschel was launched on 14 May 2009! It is the fourth 'cornerstone' mission in the ESA science programme. With a 3.5 m Cassegrain telescope it is the largest space telescope ever launched. It is performing photometry and spectroscopy in approximately the 55-671 µm range, bridging the gap between earlier infrared space missions and groundbased facilities.
