Comparing meteoritic stardust with contemporary interstellar dust measured by Cassini and DESTINY+  -  constraining models of dust processing in the interstellar medium 
Abstract:<p>Rare presolar grains originating by condensation in circumstellar atmospheres are known from meteorites [1]. These escaped processing in the solar nebula and are identified via their extremely diverse isotopic composition [1,2]. However, it is uncertain if such grains are representative for dust from the interstellar medium (ISM) [3&#8211;5], particular as [5] postulated a high fraction of interstellar grain population that formed directly in the ISM.</p><p>… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
