If an external drive (firewire in this specific case) has been unmounted, you can mount it with disk utility.  It shows up in the left panel, and you can then click on the "Mount" button or use the Mount command in the File menu (or its keyboard shortcut) to mount it.

Is it possible to mount it with an Applescript?

If you know it's identifier..
I use this for my external firewire (which always shows up at the end of the list):

set D to do shell script "diskutil list" -- gets a list of everything thats live and connected whether mounted or not.
set E to last word of last paragraph of D -- works for my case
do shell script "diskutil mount " & E -- mounts it.
