Inefficient Growth of SiOx Grains : Implications for Circumstellar Outflows
To explain observations of abundant circumstellar dust and high stellar wind velocity, most models simply postulate the efficient nucleation and growth of silicate dust particles. Here, we report measurement of the SiO-(SiOx)(n) grain sticking coefficient in a microgravity sounding rocket experiment, indicating very inefficient (0.005-0.016) grain ...

Formation of SiC grains in circumstellar envelops of carbon stars
The emission feature around 11.3 micrometer observed towards carbon stars is considered to be due to SiC grains condensed in the circumstellar envelopes. The isotopic anomalies of SiC discovered in carbonaceous meteorites strongly support the formation of SiC grains in carbon-rich AGB (Asymptotic Giant Branch) stars.
