“…In the nearby Universe, supernovae seem be producing large quantities of dust, specifically in the form of large dust grains that resist destruction in shocks [233,234]. Also, there is growing indirect evidence for an efficient production of dust by supernovae in high-redshift submillimeter galaxies [235,236]. Some supernova-produced dust, especially in the form of small grains, is destroyed in the reverse shock [237] and in other interstellar shocks, but the grains that clearly survive seem to be able to re-grow in the gas phase.…”
