Chemical Composition of Dust Grains in Novae

We have investigated the chemical composition of dust grains in novae by computing the model spectra for the novae that showed temporary infrared developments shortly after their optical explosions. We find that a simple spherical dust shell models with hot blackbody central sources fit observations...
