Abstract

Infrared emission spectra of dust produced by AGB stars are influenced by the temperature of the dust. However, optical data for dust at high temperatures, which can be used for comparison, are rare. Here, we present some results of reflection measurements on olivine and enstatite crystals (two abundant components in circumstellar dust) and subsequent calculations of the complex index of refraction.
