Scientific paper

It is suggested that the existence of the dark cores of dark nebulae is related to the reduced intensity of the Milky Way radiation field to which a typical dust grain inside a thick dust cloud is exposed because of extinction effects. A dust grain in a typical thin cloud of the general interstellar medium, on the other hand, is in contact with a radiation field of only slightly reduced intensity. Theoretical calculations based on these concepts are presented. The approach makes use of a computational method reported by Mattila (1971).
