Impact of Metals on (Star)Dust Chemistry: A Laboratory Astrophysics Approach [PDF]
Laboratory experiments are essential in exploring the mechanisms involved in stardust formation. One key question is how a metal is incorporated into dust for an environment rich in elements involved in stardust formation (C, H, O, Si).

Laboratory Astrophysics White Paper [PDF]
Laboratory astrophysics and complementary theoretical calculations are the foundations of astronomical and planetary research and will remain so for many generations to come. From the level of scientific conception to that of the scientific return, it is our understanding of the underlying processes that allows us to address fundamental questions ...

Laboratory astrophysics: Investigation of planetary and astrophysical maser emission [PDF]
This paper describes a model for cyclotron maser emission applicable to planetary auroral radio emission, the stars UV Ceti and CU Virginus, blazar jets and astrophysical shocks. These emissions may be attributed to energetic electrons moving into convergent magnetic fields that are typically found in association with dipole like planetary ...

Laboratory for Underground Nuclear Astrophysics [PDF]
Nuclear reactions shape the life and death of stars and they produce most of the chemical elements in the Universe. The cross section, at the energy of the Gamow peak, is a crucial ingredient to improve our knowledge on stellar and Universe chemical ...
