Cosmic dust evolution: The challenges for NIKA2 [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
I summarize a recent study aimed at constraining dust evolution timescales in nearby galaxies. We were able to quantify the effciency of dust condensation in SN II ejecta, grain growth in the ISM and dust destruction by SN II blast waves.

AGB Winds with Gas-Dust Drift in Stellar Evolution Codes

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
A significant fraction of new metals produced in stars enter the interstellar medium in the form of dust grains. Including dust and wind formation in stellar evolution models of late-stage low- and intermediate-mass stars provides a way to quantify their

INDUCING INTRINSIC γ-RAY EMISSION OF THE INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM BY INTENSE FLUXES OF PROTONS AND α-PARTICLES IN ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2020
Cosmic-ray induced γ-ray emission in active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been examined in this study for the first time. Cross-sections for the formation of γ-quanta in such cosmic-ray collisions were selected in the 1-150 MeV energy range.

Supernova Dust Evolution Probed by Deep-sea 60Fe Time History

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
There is a wealth of data on live, undecayed ^60 Fe ( t _1/2 = 2.6 Myr) in deep-sea deposits, the lunar regolith, cosmic rays, and Antarctic snow, which is interpreted as originating from the recent explosions of at least two near-Earth supernovae.

Phase-stable segmentation of BSCCO high-temperature superconductor into micro-, meso-, and nano-size fractions

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2020
Mesoscopic superconducting particles can be used as a model material for the cognition of the properties of a possible superconducting cosmic dust. In order to acquire the desired fraction between 1–10 µm, the method of the grain size separation based on

Experimentally Derived Luminous Efficiencies for Aluminum and Iron at Meteoric Speeds

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Calculating meteoroid masses from photometric observations relies on prior knowledge of the luminous efficiency, a parameter that is not well characterized; reported values vary by several orders of magnitude.

Can inhomogeneties accelerate the cosmic volume expansion? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
If expanding and contracting regions coexist in the universe, the speed of the cosmic volume expansion can be accelerated. We construct simple inhomogeneous dust-filled universe models in which the speed of the cosmic volume expansion is accelerated for ...

A Multiwavelength Investigation of Dust and Stellar Mass Distributions in Galaxies: Insights from High-resolution JWST Imaging

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study the morphological properties of mid-infrared selected galaxies at 1.0 < z < 1.7 in the SMACS J0723.3-7327 cluster field to investigate the mechanisms of galaxy mass assembly and structural formation at cosmic noon.

Cosmic rays and space weather: effects on global climate change [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2012
We consider possible effects of cosmic rays and some other space factors on the Earth's climate change. It is well known that the system of internal and external factors formatting the climate is very unstable; decreasing planetary temperature leads ...
