Scientific paper

We report the result of the SWS observations of a silicate carbon star, V778 Cyg. This is the only `IRAS-discovered' silicate carbon star observed by ISO. The profile of the silicate dust feature in the star does not show any changes since the IRAS LRS observation in 1983. The silicate feature is dominated by the amorphous component, and crystalline silicate bands are not noticeable, indicating that the dust is recently formed. We discuss the possibility of steady formation of the silicate dust in the stellar wind.
