Carbonaceous dust grains seen in the first billion years of cosmic time
Abstract Large dust reservoirs (up to approximately 10 8 M ⊙ ) have been detected 1–3 in galaxies out to redshift z ≃ 8, when the age of the Universe was

THE 6 μm FEATURE AS A TRACER OF ALIPHATIC COMPONENTS OF INTERSTELLAR CARBONACEOUS GRAINS [PDF]
ABSTRACT An unidentified infrared emission (UIE) feature at 6.0 μm is detected in a number of astronomical sources showing the UIE bands. In contrast to the previous suggestion that this band is due to C=O vibrational modes, we suggest that the 6.0 μm feature arises from olefinic double-bond functional groups.

Presolar grains in primitive ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite Northwest Africa 5958 [PDF]
AbstractWe report a correlated NanoSIMS‐transmission electron microscopy study of the ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite Northwest Africa (NWA) 5958. We identified 10 presolar SiC grains, 2 likely presolar graphite grains, and 20 presolar silicate and/or oxide grains in NWA 5958. We suggest a slight modification of the commonly used classification system

Reduction of Lead Oxide by Fine-Grained Carbonaceous Materials
As part of the presented work, tests were carried out to check the possibility of replacing of conventional reducers used in the lead pyrometallurgical processes by cheaper, but equally effective substitutes. For research of lead oxide reduction, the following fine-grained carbonaceous materials were used, ie anthracite dust and coal flotation ...

Motion of dust ejected from the surface of asteroid (101955) Bennu
From Jan. 6, 2019 to Feb. 18, 2019, OSIRIS-REx observed asteroid (101955) Bennu ejecting 11 plumes of dust, of which part is escaping and another part is re-captured by the asteroid.

Formation of CO2 Driven by Photochemistry of Water Ice Mixed with Carbon Grains
We present results on photochemistry of carbon-grains/water-ice mixtures at temperatures from 10 to 150 K. Such a temperature range corresponds to the physical conditions found in molecular clouds, hot cores and corinos, protostellar envelopes, and ...
