Kochanek" ], "comment": "submitted to MNRAS", "categories": [ "astro-ph.SR" ], "abstract": "We consider dust formation during the ejection of the hydrogen envelope of a red supergiant during a failed supernova (SN) creating a black hole. While the dense, slow moving ejecta are very efficient at forming dust, only the very last phases of the predicted visual transient will be obscured. The net grain production consists of ~0.01 solar masses of very large grains (10 to 1000 microns). This means that failed SNe could be the source of the very large extrasolar dust grains identified by Ulysses, Galileo and radar studies of meteoroid re-entry trails rather than their coming from an ejection process associated with protoplanetary or other disks.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-02-19T21:00:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dust formation", "failed supernova", "net grain production consists", "large extrasolar dust grains", "meteoroid re-entry trails" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1093/mnras/stu1559", "journal": "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society", "year": 2014, "month": "Nov", "volume": 444, "number": 3, "pages": 2043 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014MNRAS.444.2043K" } } }
