Interstellar Carbon Dust [PDF]

open access: yesC, 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 interstellar dust grains.

Life Cycle of Dust in the Magellanic Clouds and the Milky Way

open access: yes, 2014
To a great extent, our understanding of the life cycle of dust is based on the observational and theoretical studies of the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds, which will be the topic of this contribution. Over past years, a large volume of observations

Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Tautomerization Reactions of 1,1‐ and 1,2‐Ethenediols

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 57, Issue 12, Page 687-696, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Tautomerism is a common phenomenon amongst organic molecules with easily interconvertible isomers, which can impact drug action and toxicity. Here we are interested in the enols of carboxylic acids, which are known to be much less stable than their acid counterparts.

Black hole mass measurements using ionized gas discs: systematic dust effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Using detailed Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations in realistic models for galactic nuclei, we investigate the influence of interstellar dust in ionized gas discs on the rotation curves and the resulting black hole mass measurements.

Satellites and Small Bodies With ALMA: Insights Into Solar System Formation and Evolution

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Our understanding of the formation and evolution of planetary systems has made major advances in the past decade. This progress has been driven in large part by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which has given us an unprecedented view of solar system bodies themselves, and of the structure and chemistry of forming ...

Quantum mechanical modeling of interstellar molecules on cosmic dusts: H2O, NH3, and CO2

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2022
Since the first detection of CH molecule in interstellar medium (ISM), more than 270 molecules have been identified in various astronomical sources in ISM.

Climate Emergency and Different Ways to Fail? The Fermi Paradox, the Simulation Hypothesis, Agency and Hope

open access: yesJournal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 55, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Humanity seems stuck on different ways to fail to meet the challenge posed by a declared climate emergency and manifest problems of ecological breakdown. Rather than reprise these failures, we use the Fermi Paradox and simulation hypothesis to make a simple point about agency. The argument unfolds in two sections.

On the Submillimeter Opacity of Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yes, 2005
Solid particles with the composition of interstellar dust and power-law size distribution dn/da propto a^{-p} for a 3 lambda and 3 < p < 4 will have submm opacity spectral index beta(lambda) = dln(kappa)/dln(nu) approx (p-3) beta_{ism}, where beta_{ism}

Physical properties of dust particles around white dwarf in far infrared sky at 12.8o galactic latitude

open access: yesBibechana, 2017
We study the  active region in the interstellar medium in which the process of cavity formation is expected. The interaction between wind and its surroundings in the interstellar medium (ISM) provides a laboratory to study the behavior of dust particles.
