title: ALMA Monitoring of Millimeter Line Variation in IRC +10216. I. Overview of Millimeter Variability
abstract: Abstract Temporal variation of millimeter lines is a new direction of research for evolved stars. It has the potential to probe the dynamical wind-launching processes from a time dimension. We report here the first Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) results that cover 817 days of ongoing monitoring of 1.1 mm lines in the archetypal carbon star IRC +10216. The monitoring is done with the compact 7 m array and in infrared with a 1.25 m telescope in Crimea. High sensitivity of the cumulative spe
