Possibility of disintegration of proto-comet nucleus of sungraser comets in three zones of Solar System predicted by one of authors is considered. Testing of parameters of 118 split comets confirms the basic idea. Results of the statistical analysis of comet outbursts gave us additional argument in favor of this assumption. Almost twenty years have passed since, as a result of the search for host phases of isotopically unusual noble gases, the first discovery in 1987 of surviving pre-solar minerals (diamond and silicon carbide) in primitive meteorites. These were followed by others (graphite, refractory oxides, silicon nitride, and finally silicates) in the years since. Pre-solar grains occur in even higher abundance than in meteorites in interplanetary dust particles (IDPs). The result is a kind of ‘new astronomy’ based on the study of pre-solar condensates with all the methods available in modern analytical laboratories.

AbstractSmall amounts of pre-solar grains have survived in the matrices of primitive meteorites and interplanetary dust particles. Their detailed study in the laboratory with modern analytical tools provides highly accurate and detailed information with regard to stellar nucleosynthesis and evolution, grain formation in stellar atmospheres, and Galactic Chemical Evolution. Their survival puts constraints on conditions they were exposed to in the interstellar medium and in the Early Solar System.

AbstractThe intensity of solar X-radiation scattered by a comet is calculated and compared to the proper X-radiation of the comet due to impacts of cometary and interplanetary dust particles. Detection of X-radiation of dusty comets at small heliocentric distances (R ≤ 1 a.u.) is found to be an indicator of high-temperature plasma generation as result of grain collisions.

AbstractSamples of interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) have now been collected from the stratosphere, from the Earth’s ocean beds, and from the ice caps of Greenland and Antarctica The most likely candidates for the sources of these particles are comets and asteroids. Comparison of the infrared spectra, elemental compositions, and mineralogy of the collected dust with atmospheric entry models and data obtained from cometary probes and telescopic observations has provided important constraints on the possible sources of the various types of collected dust. These constraints lead to the following conclusions. First, most of the deep sea, Greenland, and Antarctic spherules larger than 100 μm are derived from asteroids. Second, the stratospheric IDPs dominated by hydrated layer-lattice silicate minerals are also most likely derived from asteroids. Finally, the stratospheric IDPs dominated by the anhydrous minerals olivine and pyroxene are most likely from comets. The consequences of these parent body assignments are discussed.
