The Nucleated Atomistic Grain Growth Simulator (NAGGS): application to the size-dependent structural and physical properties of nanosilicate dust

Joan Mariñoso Guiu, Antoni Macià Escatllar, Stefan T. Bromley

We report the Nucleated Atomistic Grain Growth Simulator (NAGGS) as a new tool to model the growth of realistic nanosized dust grains through the progressive accretion of monomers…

Bottom-up dust nucleation theory in oxygen-rich evolved stars II. Magnesium and calcium aluminate clusters

David Gobrecht, S. Rasoul Hashemi, John M. C. Plane +3

Spinel (MgAl $_{2}$ O $_{4}$ ) and krotite (CaAl $_{2}$ O $_{4}$ ) are alternative candidates to alumina (Al $_{2}$ O $_{3}$ ) as primary dust condensates in the atmospheres of oxygen-rich evolved…
