    Description: The processing of interstellar dust grains by strong shock waves is studied, with the emphasis on the effects of grain-grain collisions. Such collisions provide the high pressures required to transform interstellar graphite and amorphous carbon grains into diamonds. Diamond metamorphism is as important for the destruction of such grains as vaporization and sputtering. It is calculated that about 5 percent of the C is expected to be in the form of 5-100 A diamonds in the interstellar medium. These results support the suggested interstellar origin for the recently discovered small meteoritic diamonds by providing a feasible interstellar formation mechanism.

    Description: Shock processing plays an important role in the life of a typical interstellar grain. Shocks of 100 km/s-l or greater can destroy about 50% of the grain material under appropriate preshock conditions of density and magnetic field. The destruction occurs by grain-grain collisions and nonthermal sputtering for steady state radiative shocks and by thermal sputtering for fast adiabatic shocks. The evaluation of the lifetime of grains against shock destruction depends on models of the interstellar medium (ISM) structure and on supernova remnants (SNR) evolution. Results from various authors give lifetimes between 10 to the 8th and 10 to the 9th power years, compared to typical injection times for new grains of a few times 10 to the 9th power years. These numbers require that a major portion of the interstellar silicon bearing grain material must be formed by grain growth in the ISM. At the same time, the presence of isotopic anomalies in some meteorites implies that at least some grains must survive from their formation in SNRs or red giant winds through incorporation into the solar system.

    Description: There exists a discrepancy between calculated destruction rates of grains in the interstellar medium and postulated sources of new grains. This problem was examined by modelling the global life cycle of grains in the galaxy. The model includes: grain destruction due to supernovae shock waves; grain injection from cool stars, planetary nebulae, star formation, novae, and supernovae; grain growth by accretion in dark clouds; and a mixing scheme between phases of the interstellar medium. Grain growth in molecular clouds is considered as a mechanism or increasing the formation rate. To decrease the shock destruction rate, several new physical processes, such as partial vaporization effects in grain-grain collisions, breakdown of the small Larmor radius approximation for betatron acceleration, and relaxation of the steady-state shock assumption are included.

    Description: The International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) Satellite was used to collect interstellar extinction curves for 58 moderately reddened lines of sight. Spectral types of the background stars ranged from O7 to A0. All luminosity classes are represented, but early B main-sequence stars predominate. E(B-V) reddening values ranged from 0.14 to 1.13 mag, with an average of 0.63 mag. These extinction curves, less some 10 curves judged of lower quality, were co-added in order to reduce the random and fixed-pattern noise of the instrument. The resulting averaged curve was examined for evidence of small-scale structure, with negative results. The 2-sigma limits were found to be 0.09 mag for wavelengths between 1150 A and 2000 A, and 0.16 mag for wavelengths between 2000 A and 2300 A. Because of mismatch errors in weak stellar lines, it is unlikely that much improvement in these results is possible. The implications of these negative results are discussed with particular reference to the MgO theory of interstellar grains and diffuse bands.
