Stardust Mineralogy

The Laboratory Approach

  • Chapter
Formation and Evolution of Solids in Space

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 523))

Abstract

Some basic mineralogical problems which are not always adequately considered in the astrophysical investigation of solids in circum-stellar envelopes around evolved stars (stardust) are discussed: adequacy of mineralogical terms, identification problems, universality claim, amorphousness vs. crystallinity, heterogeneous grain structure, and spectral masking. The state of the art in the laboratory simulation of the main groups of stardust solids detected in oxygen-rich and carbon-rich circumstellar solids is critically reviewed: silicates, oxides, carbides, nitrides, sulfides and diamonds. Relevant laboratory data on presolar grains in meteorites and interplanetary dust particles are compared with the astrophysical results.
