Diamonds in the dust

Karen Southwell

Nature, 1998, vol. 392, issue 6672, 133-133

Abstract: The dust in meteorites often contains tiny diamonds, probably formed from a stellar outflow before the birth of the Solar System. Hence the interest in such diamonds, and new work which attempts to identify the kind of star which produced them, by analysis of the diamonds' spectral and absorption properties at various wavelengths. The parent star investigated here is a type of carbon-rich red giant.
