Synergies between interstellar dust and heliospheric science with an interstellar probe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We discuss the synergies between heliospheric and dust science, the open science questions, the technological endeavours, and programmatic aspects that are important to maintain or develop in the decade to come.

Dust evolution, a global view: II. Top-down branching, nanoparticle fragmentation and the mystery of the diffuse interstellar band carriers [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
The origin of the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs), one of the longest-standing mysteries of the interstellar medium (ISM), is explored within the framework of The Heterogeneous dust Evolution Model for Interstellar Solids (THEMIS). The likely nature of

Interstellar dust within the life cycle of the interstellar medium

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
Cosmic dust is omnipresent in the Universe. Its presence influences the evolution of the astronomical objects which in turn modify its physical and chemical properties.

Organic dust in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of The Korean Astronomical Society, 2014
The possibility that complex organics are a major component of interstellar dust is discussed. Comparison between astronomical infrared spectra and laboratory spectra of amorphous carbonaceous materials suggests that organics of mixed aromatic ...

Interstellar Dust in the Solar System

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2010
A fraction of the dust in the interstellar medium (ISM) enters the heliosphere and is measured in situ from spacecraft. This review surveys the in situ measurements and discusses a hence derived model of dust in the local interstellar cloud (LIC).

Interstellar Dust Grains [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2003
▪ Abstract  This review surveys the observed properties of interstellar dust grains: the wavelength-dependent extinction of starlight, including absorption features, from UV to infrared; optical luminescence; infrared emission; microwave emission; optical, UV, and X-ray scattering by dust; and polarization of starlight and of infrared emission.

Interstellar Carbon Dust

open access: yesJournal of Carbon Research, 2019
In the ranking of cosmic abundance of the elements, carbon is the second element, after oxygen, able to form multiple bonds propagating the formation of a network, thus playing an essential role in the formation of nanometer- to micrometer-sized ...
