Efficient Interstellar Grain Growth from High Sticking Coefficients on Amorphous Carbon Dust
Clarke J. Esmerian, Duncan Bossion, Francois Dulieu +8
The paper uses molecular dynamics simulations and laboratory experiments to show that amorphous carbon dust grains in the interstellar medium can acquire gas‑phase atoms with high…
Silicate cosmic dust grain collisions in the interstellar medium: A molecular dynamics study
C. J. Esmerian, S. R. Hashemi, W. M. C. Sameera +6
(abridged) We aim to predict the most important parameters for grain-grain collision outcomes for models of interstellar grain population evolution on astrophysical scales: the thr…
Probing Infrared eXcess to Investigate Early-Universe Dust (PIXIEDust)
Tom J. L. C. Bakx, Hiddo S. B. Algera, Jean-Baptiste Jolly +25
Despite the implied presence of dust through reddened UV emission in high-redshift galaxies, no dust emission has been detected in the (sub)millimetre regime beyond . This…
An empirical view of the extended atmosphere and inner envelope of the asymptotic giant branch star R Doradus. II. Constraining the dust properties with radiative transfer modelling
Thiebaut Schirmer, Theo Khouri, Wouter Vlemmings +6
Mass loss in oxygen-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars remains poorly understood, as the dust detected around them appears too transparent to drive winds through absorption a…
A warm ultra-luminous infrared galaxy just 600 million years after the Big Bang
T. J. L. C. Bakx, Laura Sommovigo, Yoichi Tamura +24
We present an Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Band 9 continuum detection () of MACS0416_Y1 that confirms the suspected warm dust (91 K) of…
The Binding Energies of Atoms on Amorphous Silicate Dust: A Computational Study
Kristoffer Hansson, W. M. C. Sameera, Clarke J. Esmerian +6
Context. We investigate the binding energies of atoms to interstellar dust particles, which play a key role in their growth and evolution, as well as for the chemical reactions on…
