Matsuura et al. 2011

SN 1987A

0.4 – 0.7 M☉

<-- M = 8 - 40 M☉

M = 1.4 - 25 M ☉ -->

Mass loss = 10 M☉

Mgas/Mdust =200

Mgas = 9.95 M☉

Mdust = 0.05 M☉

So, Mdust = 0.4 – 0.7 M☉

Mgas = 80 to 140 M☉

• Is there accretion of dust in the ISM?

• When do AGB stars become important dust makers?

• Why does SN 1987A always have to be different?

• Do SNe with significant CSM make more dust?

• Do SNe destroy more dust than they make?
