Can Solid Hydrogen condense on Interstellar Grains?
IT has been suggested1,2 that the temperatures of some interstellar grains may be low enough for the condensation of solid hydrogen on their surfaces. The questions of grain temperature and vapour pressure of sol...

Broadband Structure in the Interstellar Extinction Curve
We have analysed observations of the interstellar extinction in the range 3400 Å–11000 Å. The observations have high photometric accuracy and wavelength resolution, and allow a detailed examination of broadban...

Physics and Astrophysics of Interstellar Dust
Although this exposition covers the topics discussed in the series of lectures presented at the Summer School on Infrared Astronomy, their order has been changed. This is largely a result of the experience gai...

Grain Mantle Photolysis: A Connection between the Grain Size Distribution Function and the Abundance of Complex Interstellar Molecules
The energy stored as free radicals in the process of growth and photoprocessing of interstellar grain mantles by ultraviolet radiation in clouds is treated as the primary cause of both grain mantle destruction...

Pre-stellar interstellar dust
Before we can properly build a theory for the origin of the solar system we must know what interstellar gas and dust look like in the pre-stellar stage. In this paper we have concentrated on the dust. We arriv...

Interstellar molecule formation in grain mantles: The laboratory analog experiments, results and implications
Laboratory and theoretical studies have been made of the effects of ultraviolet photolysis of interstellar grain mantles which consist of combinations of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon and nitrogen — ‘dirty ice’. It...

Photochemical reactions in interstellar grains photolysis of co, NH3, and H2O
A simulation of the organic layer accreted onto interstellar dust particles was prepared by slow deposition of a CO:NH3:H2O gas mixture on an Al block at 10K, with concomitant irradiation with vacuum UV. The resi...

Introduction
I am honored to be asked to introduce this second ‘Jena’ meeting on interstellar dust at Georgenthal and I thank the organizers for making this possible. For some of us, interstellar dust had not only provided...

The Role of Grains in Molecular Chemical Evolution
The observations of dust gas in diffuse and molecular clouds are shown to reflect not only their current state but their past history. The interpretation of infrared spectra of dust in molecular clouds using a...

S2 Formation in Interstellar Dust; A Diagnostic of the Maximum Aggregation Temperature For A Comet
Ultraviolet photolysis oi interstellar grain types of dirty ices containing H20, CO, CH4 and H2S produces S2. At low temperature (10 K) this molecule can be trapped in the dirty ice for a time longer than the age...

Molecular Origin of the 216 NM Interstellar Hump
Vacuum ultraviolet photochemical experiments have been performed in an argon matrix, at low temperature (− 12 K). It appears that starting from a variety of simple organic molecules photo-products are formed w...
