Dust-charge fluctuation effects on surface dust-acoustic waves in astrophysical half-space dusty plasmas

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate the dust-charge fluctuation effects on the propagation and the decay of the dust-acoustic surface plasma wave at the interface of plasma-vacuum in astrophysical half-space dusty plasmas.

Multiscale Synthetic Observations of Polarized Dust Emission: On the Origin of Depolarization Effect from Molecular Clouds to Starless Cores and Constraints on Dust Physics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Submillimeter observations of polarized dust emission from molecular clouds to starless cores frequently report a decrease in polarization fraction ( p ) with increasing dust emission intensity ( I ).

The Bochum Survey of the Southern Galactic Disk: IV. Multi‐Band Photometry

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Southern Galactic Disk Survey (GDS) monitored a mosaic of 268 fields along a 6°‐wide stripe in the southern galactic disk from September 2010 to September 2019. These fields were observed between 21 and 407 times sim r′$$ {r}^{\prime } $$ultaneously in (8mag≲r′≲18mag$$ 8\kern0.6em \mathrm{mag}\lesssim {r}^{\prime}\lesssim 18\kern0.6em ...

Is cosmic dust porous? [PDF]

open access: yes
There is a long-standing discussion in the astrophysical/astrochemical community as to the structure and morphology of dust grains in various astrophysical environments (e.g., interstellar clouds, protostellar envelopes, protoplanetary and debris disks ...

Size Distribution of Small Grains in the Inner Zodiacal Cloud

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft has transited the innermost regions of the zodiacal cloud and detects impacts to the spacecraft body via its electric field instrument.

Post‐flight assessment of the OSIRIS‐REx Sample Return Capsule (SRC) for organic and other potential contaminants

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Regolith samples from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu were stowed and delivered to Earth in the OSIRIS‐REx spacecraft's Sample Return Capsule (SRC). We applied multiple analytical techniques to study the components of the post‐flight SRC, with a focus on assessing the conditions and any contaminants to which the Bennu samples were exposed ...

Astrophysical dust formation under the influence of temperature fluctuations

open access: yes, 2008
Context. Dust formation, i.e. the condensation of solid particles from a gas phase, occurs in astrophysical environments that are sufficiently cool and offer a sufficiently high density of condensable species.

Multiphase Gas Nature in the Sub-parsec Region of the Active Galactic Nuclei. I. Dynamical Structures of Dusty and Dust-free Outflow

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigated dusty and dust-free gas dynamics for a radiation-driven sub-parsec-scale outflow in an active galactic nucleus (AGN) associated with a supermassive black hole 10 ^7 M _⊙ and bolometric luminosity 10 ^44 erg s ^−1 based on the two ...

Xenoliths in meteorites: Insights into the dynamics of material exchange between asteroids

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract A minor fraction of meteorites contains xenoliths, that is, clasts that were formed on a different parent body than that of the host lithology. The occurrence of xenoliths is direct evidence for the exchange of material between asteroids, including exchanges between asteroids from the carbonaceous (CC) and non‐carbonaceous (NC) reservoirs ...

[Petrological Analysis of Astrophysical Dust Analog Evolution] [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
This project "Petrological analysis of astrophysical dust analog evolution" was initiated to try to understand the vapor phase condensation, and the nature of the reaction products, in circumstellar environments, such as the solar nebula 4,500 Myrs ago ...
