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