Scientific paper

A simple method for the calculation of the particle size spectrum in dust forming objects is presented. The application to a dust driven wind model around a C-star shows a power law size distribution over several orders of magnitude in size. The spectral index is found. Drift velocity between dust and gas leads to a slightly smaller spectral index, while coagulation practically has no influence on the produced size distribution.
