Scientific paper

Laboratory studies suggest that microdiamonds will be quite elusive in
interstellar space, being detectable only if more than 10 per cent of
the carbon is present as diamond. The diamonds apparently formed by
condensation in cool stellar atmospheres, and were then impregnated with
isotopically anomalous noble gases, such as Xe, from a supernova.
