Dust in a Type Ia Supernova Progenitor: Spitzer Spectroscopy of Kepler's Supernova Remnant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Characterization of the relatively poorly-understood progenitor systems of Type Ia supernovae is of great importance in astrophysics, particularly given the important cosmological role that these supernovae play. Kepler's Supernova Remnant, the result of

Heavily irradiated grains and neon isotope anomalies in carbonaceous chondrites

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1976
High-voltage microscope observations of micron-sized grains extracted from a /sup 22/Ne-rich fraction of the Orgueil meteorite give strong experimental evidence for their heavy irradiation. It is further suggested that the excess of /sup 22/Ne measured in the same mineral separate can be explained by low-energy (

Evolution of grain size distribution with enhanced abundance of small carbonaceous grains in galactic environments

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT We propose an updated dust evolution model that focuses on the grain size distribution in a galaxy. We treat the galaxy as a one-zone object and include five main processes (stellar dust production, dust destruction in supernova shocks, grain growth by accretion and coagulation, and grain disruption by shattering). In this paper,

Laboratory Experiments on the Low-temperature Formation of Carbonaceous Grains in the ISM [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2017
Abstract The life cycle of cosmic dust grains is far from being understood and the origin and evolution of interstellar medium (ISM) grains is still under debate. In the ISM, the cosmic dust destruction rate is faster than the production rate by stellar sources.

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.

Recognition of Detrital Carbonaceous Material in the Ryoke Metamorphic Belt by Using Raman Thermometry: Implications for Thermal Structure and Detrital Origin

open access: yesLithosphere, 2022
Raman spectroscopy of carbonaceous material (RSCM) thermometry is an effective method to determine the thermal structure of metasedimentary domains with high spatial resolution.

Modelling dust extinction in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We model the extinction profiles observed in the Small and Large Magellanic clouds with a synthetic population of dust grains consisting by core-mantle particles and a collection of free-flying polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

THE 6 μm FEATURE AS A TRACER OF ALIPHATIC COMPONENTS OF INTERSTELLAR CARBONACEOUS GRAINS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
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.

A Thermodynamic 3D Model for the Simulation of Diffusion‐Controlled Alloying Processes in Heterogeneous Material Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical model resulting from irreversible thermodynamics for describing transport processes is introduced, focusing on thermodynamic activity gradients as the actual driving force for diffusion. Implemented in CUDA C++ and using CalPhaD methods for determining the necessary activity data, the model accurately simulates interdiffusion in aluminum ...

Investigating Silicate, Carbon, and Water in the Diffuse Interstellar Medium: The First Shots from WISCI

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The dusty interstellar medium (ISM) of the Milky Way is distributed in a complex, cloudy structure. It is fundamental to the radiation balance within the Milky Way, provides a reaction surface to form complex molecules, and is the feedstock for future ...
