Temperature Spectra of Interstellar Dust Grains Heated by Cosmic Rays. III. Mixed Composition Grains
Juris Kalvans, Juris Roberts Kalnin
Icy grains in the interstellar medium and star-formation regions consist of a variety of materials. Such composite grains interact differently with cosmic-ray (CR) particles compar…
Evaporative cooling of icy interstellar grains II. Key parameters
Juris Kalvāns, Juris Roberts Kalnin
Context. Evaporative (sublimation) cooling of icy interstellar grains occurs when the grains have been suddenly heated by a cosmic-ray (CR) particle or other process. It results in…
Evaporative cooling of icy interstellar grains. I. Basic characterization
Juris Kalvans, Juris Roberts Kalnin
Context. While radiative cooling of interstellar grains is a well-known process, little detail is known about the cooling of grains with an icy mantle that contains volatile adsorb…
Chemical significance of different temperature regimes for cosmic-ray-induced heating of whole interstellar grains
Juris Kalvans, Juris Roberts Kalnin
Cosmic-ray-induced whole-grain heating induces evaporation and other processes that affect the chemistry of interstellar clouds. With recent data on grain heating frequencies as an…
