Composite grains: Application to circumstellar dust
Using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) we calculate the absorption efficiency of the composite grain, made up of a host silicate spheroid and inclusions of graphite, in the spectral region 5.0-25.0μm.

Atacama Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (AtLAST) science: Our Galaxy [version 2; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
As we learn more about the multi-scale interstellar medium (ISM) of our Galaxy, we develop a greater understanding for the complex relationships between the large-scale diffuse gas and dust in Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs), how it moves, how it is ...

NIKA2 observations around LBV stars Emission from stars and circumstellar material [PDF]
Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) stars are evolved massive objects, previous to core-collapse supernova. LBVs are characterized by photometric and spectroscopic variability, produced by strong and dense winds, mass-loss events and very intense UV radiation ...

Circumstellar Dust and Circumstellar Extinction Curves [PDF]
We have calculated the circumstellar extinction curves produced by dust grains which absorb and scatter the stellar radiation in the shells of pre-main-sequence stars. A Monte Carlo method was used to model the radiative transfer in non-spherical shells. The dependence on the particle size distribution and the dust shell parameters has been examined.

Yellow Supergiants and Post-red Supergiant Evolution in the Large Magellanic Cloud
The empirical evidence for an upper-mass limit for the red supergiant (RSG) progenitors of the Type II-P SNe at about 18 MSun, raises questions about the fate of the most luminous, most massive RSGs.

Comets and Circumstellar Dust [PDF]
AbstractSpectra obtained with the Infrared Space Observatory ISO of the dusty disks surrounding young stars display several characteristics which suggest the presence of large amounts of cometary material during these early stages. Of special interest are crystalline silicates and hydrated silicates, which surprisingly appear to be present already in ...

Dust Disks Around Young Stellar Objects [PDF]
To reproduce the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of young stellar objects (YSOs), we perform radiative transfer model calculations for the circumstellar dust disks with various shapes and many dust species.

AGB Stars and Their Circumstellar Envelopes. I. the VULCAN Code
The interplay between AGB interiors and their outermost layers, where molecules and dust form, is a problem of high complexity. As a consequence, physical processes like mass loss, which depend on the chemistry of the circumstellar envelope, are often ...

Dust Coagulation in Oxygen-rich Circumstellar Outflows
We show that the inefficient growth of SiO molecules on (SiO) _x dust grains prolongs the period of maximum dust nucleation in circumstellar outflows resulting in a several orders-of-magnitude increase in the dust density near the star.
