Optical Properties of Non-stoichiometric Amorphous Silicates with Application to Circumstellar Dust Extinction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We determine the optical constants of non-stoichiometric amorphous magnesium-iron silicates and demonstrate that they can well reproduce the observed mid-infrared emission spectra of evolved stars.

Dust Coagulation in Oxygen-rich Circumstellar Outflows

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
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.

Circumstellar Dust, PAHs, and Stellar Populations in Early-Type Galaxies: Insights from GALEX and WISE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A majority of early-type galaxies contain interstellar dust, yet the origin of this dust, and why the dust sometimes exhibits unusual polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) ratios, remains a mystery.

Dust-grain processing in circumbinary discs around evolved binaries. The RV Tauri spectral twins RU Cen and AC Her [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Context: We study the structure and evolution of circumstellar discs around evolved binaries and their impact on the evolution of the central system. Aims: To study in detail the binary nature of RUCen and ACHer, as well as the structure and mineralogy ...

Composite circumstellar dust grains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We calculate the absorption efficiencies of composite silicate grains with inclusions of graphite and silicon carbide in the spectral range 5--25$\rm \mu m$. We study the variation in absorption profiles with volume fractions of inclusions. In particular

Grain Growth and Dust Segregation Revealed by Multiwavelength Analysis of the Class I Protostellar Disk WL 17

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The first step toward planet formation is grain growth from (sub)micrometer to millimeter/centimeter sizes. Grain growth has been reported not only in Class II protoplanetary disks but also in Class 0/I protostellar envelopes.

Delayed Shock-induced Dust Formation in the Dense Circumstellar Shell Surrounding the Type IIn Supernova SN 2010jl [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The light curves of Type IIn supernovae are dominated by the radiative energy released through the interaction of the supernova shock waves with their dense circumstellar medium (CSM).

Constraining dust properties in circumstellar envelopes of C-stars in the Magellanic Clouds: Optical constants and grain size of carbon dust [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016
We present a new approach aimed at constraining the typical size and optical properties of carbon dust grains in Circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) of carbon-rich stars (C-stars) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC).

Kinetics of the tautomerization of thioimidic acids R−C(SH)NH → R−C(S)NH2: For R = H, F, HO, CN, NC, H2N, HC(O), HC(S), HC≡ C, CH3, CF3, H2C=CH, HOCH2, H2NCH2,CH3C(O), C2H5, (CH3)2CH, C6H5

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 731-742, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The kinetics of the tautomerization of thio‐imidic acids RC(SH)NH were determined at low (50–300 K) and high (500–1500 K) temperatures as R was varied to encompass mono‐ and diatomic species H, F, HO, NC, CN through H2N, HC(O), HC(S), HC≡ C, H3C, F3C, HOCH2, H2C=CH, CH3C(O), H2NCH2 and including ethyl, isopropyl and phenyl groups.
