Despite the generally hostile nature of the environments involved, chemistry does occur in
space. Molecules are seen in environments that span a wide range of physical and chemical …

Supernovae are considered as prime sources of dust in space. Observations of local
supernovae over the past couple of decades have detected the presence of dust in …

Dust is a ubiquitous feature of the cosmos, impinging directly or indirectly on most fields of
modern astronomy and astrophysics. Dust in the Galactic Environment, Second Edition …

The origin of dust in galaxies is still a mystery,,,. The majority of the refractory elements are
produced in supernova explosions, but it is unclear how and where dust grains condense …

Aims. We model the synthesis of molecules and dust in the inner wind of the oxygen-rich
Mira-type star IK Tau by considering the effects of periodic shocks induced by the stellar …

We present new Herschel photometric and spectroscopic observations of Supernova 1987A,
carried out in 2012. Our dedicated photometric measurements provide new 70 μm data and …

Theoretical models predict that core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) can be efficient dust
producers (0.1-1.0 M⊙), potentially accounting for most of the dust production in the early …

Supernova (SN) explosions have been sought for decades as a possible source of dust in
the Universe, providing the seeds of galaxies, stars, and planetary systems. SN 1987A offers …
