400: 269:. Star dust is essential to the formation of planets and is involved in interstellar processes including molecular formation and gas heating. Mass-loss from stars is driven by radiation pressure on dust grains. She uses spectroscopy, imaging and modelling to study the chemical compositions of stars. Speck mainly considers how dust formation changes during the evolution of 33: 260:
