Abstract. We consider a hydrostatic model of an optically dense gas and dust of interstellar clouds, which is in equilibrium with its own weight and external radiation. Numerical calculations of stationary distributions of temperature and concentration of gas in the cloud. Identified conditions for the emergence of convective instability.
Keywords: interstellar dust, radiative transfer, gas-dust clouds, interaction of radiation with matter, convective instability, Eddington approximation.
