Lifetime of carbonaceous grains as a function of the grain size for different gas temperatures. The abrupt drop in the lifetime for the red and green curves is due to ion field emission. The dotted lines represent the lifetime of dust without the inclusion of any charge effect. The dashed horizontal line at 102 yr represents the threshold for observability.
