Formation and destruction of dust grains in circumstellar regions [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
The existence of circumstellar dust in late-type stars is connected with stellar pulsations since periodic shocks accompanying pulsations seem to be the most probable mechanism of the gas density increase needed for condensation of dust particles in outer layers of the stellar atmosphere.

Large grains can grow in circumstellar discs [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2013
AbstractWe perform coagulation & fragmentation simulations to understand grain growth in T Tauri & brown dwarf discs. We present a physically-motivated approach using a probability distribution function for the collision velocities and separating the deterministic & stochastic velocities.

Sudden Extreme Obscuration of a Sun-like Main-sequence Star: Evolution of the Circumstellar Dust around ASASSN-21qj

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
ASASSN-21qj is a distant Sun-like star that recently began an episode of deep dimming events after no prior recorded variability. Here we examine archival and newly obtained optical and near-infrared data of this star.

Large dust grains in the inner region of circumstellar disks [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2006
CONTEXT: Simple geometrical ring models account well for near-infrared interferometric observations of dusty disks surrounding pre-main sequence stars of intermediate mass. Such models demonstrate that the dust distribution in these disks has an inner hole and puffed-up inner edge consistent with theoretical expectations.

m spectra of globular cluster red giants: circumstellar silicate dust grains in 47 Tucanae (NGC 104)

open access: yes, 2006
We present 8–13 μm spectra of eight red giants in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae (NGC 104), obtained at the European Southern Observatory 3.6 m telescope. These are the first mid-infrared spectra of metal-poor, low-mass stars.

MgS grain component in circumstellar shells

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1985
In this letter, far-infrared spectrophotometry (30-55 microns) and photometry (53-200 microns) are presented which define, for the first time, the long wavelength limit of the previously unidentified 30 micron emission feature found in certain extreme carbon star spectra. The spectral similarities are sufficiently similar to those of solid MgS that MgS

The Presolar Grain Database. I. Silicon Carbide

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The Presolar Grain Database (PGD) contains the vast majority of isotope data (published and unpublished) on presolar grains and was first released as a collection of spreadsheets in 2009.

NanoSIMS-Analyse und hochauflösende Elektronenmikroskopie an präsolaren Silikaten aus roten Riesensternen und Supernovaexplosionen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis deals with the analysis of “presolar” silicates and oxides by high resolution mass spectrometry and electron microscopy techniques. This “stardust” was identified by its extreme oxygen isotopic anomalies, which point to nucleosynthetic ...

Correlated Molybdenum, Ruthenium, and Barium Isotope Anomalies in Presolar Silicon Carbide Grains

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We have analyzed molybdenum, ruthenium, and barium isotopes simultaneously in 55 individual presolar silicon carbide (SiC) grains from the Murchison CM2 meteorite using the Chicago Instrument for Laser Ionization (or CHILI).
