1 Unveiling dust properties across galactic environments with dust evolution models Svitlana Zhukovska Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics Clare Dobbs (Uni Exeter), Ed Jenkins (Princeton Uni) Ralf Klessen (Uni Heidelberg) Thomas Peters, Thorsten Naab (MPA) Physics of ISM - 6 years of ISM-SPP 1573

2 Dust as diagnostics - extinction, emission, polarization, spectroscopy Molecular gas, star formation Magnetic fields Temperature Chemistry, optical depth Dust as active player Reprocessing of stellar light Surfaces for molecule formation Cooling agent Formation of planets and stars Grain properties Gas-to-dust ratio Chemical composition Optical properties Grain size distribution

3 Dust growth by accretion Young stars SN II AGB stars New grains Dust shattering, disruption by SNe COLD CLOUDS SN Ia DIFFUSE MEDIUM Dust growth by accretion Young stars SN II AGB stars New grains Dust shattering, disruption by SNe COLD CLOUDS SN Ia DIFFUSE MEDIUM

4 Why do we care about dust sources? Type II Supernovae Short timescales <40Myr Low dust masses per SN (<10-3 M sun ), GDR in ejecta: ~ Msun of dust per SN (Zhukovska+2008) Discovery of larger dust mass in SN1987A (talk by Phil Cigan) Cassiopeia A Low-mass stars at AGB (0.8 M sun <M<8M sun ) Long timescales 40 Myr - few Gyr Observations Gas-to-dust ratio ~ Theory: Ferrarotti&Gail 2006, Zhukovska+2008, Nanni+2013, 2014, Di Criscienzo+2013, many others oxygen, carbon-rich dust mass on fine M *, Z * grid

5 Why do we care about dust sources? Dust growth in ISM Timescale depends on local conditions, ZISM Critical metallicity Different dust properties? (Cornelia s talk) Sticking coefficient τ gr ~ Z α a 3 υ th n H a 3 = a3 a 2 Metallicity Mean grain size Zhukovska 2008 One zone chemical models of dust evolution Dwek 1998, Zhukovska+2008, Calura+2008,

7 Constraints for SN dust from dwarf galaxies BCDs & dirr: young, small, gas-rich systems Spread in metallicities 7.2<12 + log (O/H)~ 8.6 Lots of dust, spread in dust-to-gas ratios I Zw 18 NASA/ESA/Y Izotov/T Thuan) GDR steepens at low Z Remy-Ruyer, Zhukovska+2014

8 Dust-to-gas ratio in dwarf galaxies Model 1: t burst =500 Myr, τ SF = 0.2 Gyr Model 2: t burst =500 Myr, τ SF = 2 Gyr Model 3: t burst =50 Myr, τ SF = 2 Gyr Models: Enhanced dust formation in SNII NO dust growth in ISM Zhukovska 2014

9 Dust-to-gas ratio in dwarf galaxies Low efficiencies of dust condensation in SNe Model 1: t burst =500 Myr, τ SF = 0.2 Gyr Model 2: t burst =500 Myr, τ SF = 2 Gyr Model 3: t burst =50 Myr, τ SF = 2 Gyr No single critical metallicity for transition: higher SFR higher Z crit, but shorter t crit Higher SFR Dust growth operates after a SF burst (opposite to SNII dust) Evolved galaxies are dominated by dust growth in ISM Models: Modest dust formation in SN II WITH dust growth in ISM Zhukovska 2014

20 Take away messages Observations of local galaxies provide constraints for dust sources in dust evolution models: Dust re-formation in ISM dominates production in evolved galaxies Timescales of dust destruction/re-formation ~0.5 Gyr < timescale of dust input by stars Dust-to-gas ratio in the ISM is not the same: at least a factor of 2 Double slope of the [Si/H] gas -ngas relation: steeper slope of -0.5 in CNM explained by models with dust mass growth Sticking coefficient must decrease with T gas in hydrodynamic galactic simulations
