  1. 8. Laboratory Experiments on Cosmic Dust

    What is dust?
    Review Talk

    Cosmic dust grains are present in nearly all astrophysical environments proving their existence by the absorption, scattering, and reemission of stellar light in a broad spectral range covering wavelengths from the UV up to millimeters. Dedicated laboratory experiments are necessary to get more insight into the formation pathways and chemical modification of refractory solids under different...

    What is dust?
    Invited talk

    Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are commonly thought to play a key role in the chemical and physical evolution of star-forming regions from the small scales of protoplanetary disks to the large scales of galaxies. However attempts to identify individual species have been so far unsuccessful. Cosmic PAHs and related species such as C$_{60}$, are observed by their emission features in...

  3. 37. Formation of molecules on cosmic dust grains: a laboratory view

    What is dust?
    Contributed talk

    Molecular ices covering dust grains are known to be a source of molecules, including complex organic molecules (COMs), in the interstellar medium (ISM) and circumstellar shells and disks, the molecules, which cannot be created via gas phase reactions. Studying the formation of COMs is crucially important to understand the processes that lead to stars and planets formation, and to understand a...

  4. 72. Determining the systematic errors in fits of dust thermal emission: the role of laboratory data in upcoming models
    Dr Lapo Fanciullo (ASIAA)

    What is dust?
    Contributed talk

    Interstellar dust plays an important role the study of interstellar medium, especially since the development of far-infrared and submillimeter instruments in the last decades (e.g. IRAS, Herschel, Planck, ALMA) has allowed wide surveys of dust thermal emission. Using a dust emission model these observations can be converted to maps of quantities such as the dust column density and temperature,...
