Disentangling the Origin and Heating Mechanism of Supernova Dust: Late-Time Spitzer Spectroscopy of the Type IIn SN 2005ip [PDF]
This paper presents late-time near-infrared and {\it Spitzer} mid-infrared photometric and spectroscopic observations of warm dust in the Type IIn SN 2005ip in NGC 2906.

Isomerism of CH2SO: Accurate structural, energetic, and spectroscopic characterization
What is the next sulfur‐containing molecule that will be detected in space? Guided by the experimental data on the cis‐/trans‐HC(O)SH conformers, the structural and spectroscopic properties of cis‐/trans‐HC(S)OH have been accurately determined using state‐of‐the‐art quantum‐chemical approaches. Abstract A recent work [Ye et al. Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc.

Equatorial Enhancement in the Dustiest OH/IR Stars in the Galactic Bulge
We have detected the 10 μ m silicate feature and the 11.3 μ m crystalline forsterite feature in absorption in 21 oxygen-rich asymptotic giant branch stars in the Galactic bulge.

Chiroptical properties of membrane glycerophospholipids and their chiral backbones
Examination of the interaction of glycerophospholipids with circularly polarized light suggests that direct induction of symmetry breaking to membrane lipids by chiral photons is unlikely. However, anisotropy spectra of certain analogs indicate potential alternative mechanisms for the origins of membrane lipid homochirality, providing insights into the

Dust-evacuated Zones near Massive Stars: Consequences of Dust Dynamics on Star-forming Regions
Stars form within dense cores composed of both gas and dust within molecular clouds. However, despite the crucial role that dust plays in the star formation process, its dynamics is frequently overlooked, with the common assumption being a constant ...

THE SPECTROSCOPY OF THE PULSATING CARBON STAR R Lep
The first results of detailed spectroscopy are presented for carbon Mira R Leporis. This long-period variable is undergoing deep fadings, apparently caused by dust formation around the star.

The presence of dust in the general interstellar medium is inferred from the extinction, polarization, and scattering of starlight; the presence of dark nebulae; interstellar depletions; the observed infrared emission around certain stars and various ...
