Elliptical Dust Growth in Astrophysical Plasmas [PDF]
Elongated dust grains exist in astrophysical plasmas. Anisotropic growth of elliptical dust grains, via plasma deposition, occurs if the deposited ions are non-inertial.

Alfvén waves in space and astrophysical dusty plasmas [PDF]
In this paper, we present some results of previous works on Alfvén waves in a dusty plasma in different astrophysical and space regions by taking into account the effect of superthermal particles on the dispersive characteristics.

Context. Cosmic dust is ubiquitous in astrophysical environments, where it significantly influences the chemistry and the spectra. Dust grains are likely to grow through the accretion of atoms and molecules from the gas-phase onto them.

Conceptual Design of an Experiment to Study Dust Destruction by Astrophysical Shock Waves [PDF]
A novel laboratory experimental design is described that will investigate the processing of dust grains in astrophysical shocks. Dust is a ubiquitous ingredient in the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies; however, its evolutionary cycle is still poorly

The Rich Chemistry of Ionized Methanol With Sulfur Dioxide: Pathways to Prebiotic and Elusive Species in Earth's Atmosphere and Space. [PDF]
The reaction between the methanol radical cation and sulfur dioxide is remarkably fast and forms several ionic and neutral products (HOSOH+, CH2OSO+, CH2OH+, CH2O, H2O, HSO2). The chemistry goes beyond simple proton or hydrogen transfer, revealing a close interaction between the two species, relevant to atmospheric and astrochemical environments where ...

Dust formation and evolution in the ejecta of core-collapse supernovae [PDF]
Observations of local supernovae over the past couple of decades have reported the presence of dust in the ejecta. The dust masses inferred from observations in mid-infrared and submillimeter wavelengths differ by a factor of 10^2 to 10^4 The composition

Protoplanetary disks exhibit a vertical gradient in angular momentum, rendering them susceptible to the vertical shear instability (VSI). The most important condition for the onset of this mechanism is a short timescale of thermal relaxation (≲0.1 ...

Direct SMBH Formation Driven by Runaway Stellar Collisions in Globally Unstable Stellar Systems
ABSTRACT The fueling problem addresses the ultimate fate of the reservoirs of gas and stars driven into the deepest gravitational potential wells of galaxies, thus it may contain the Universe's densest concentrations of gas and stars. This raises a key question: does the infalling material collapse directly into a supermassive black hole, or can it ...
