Cosmic Dust: Building Blocks of Planets Falling from the Sky
, 2016Throughout its history, Earth has accreted microscopic dust falling from space. Decelerating from cosmic speeds at the top of the atmosphere, the smallest particles can take weeks to reach the ground, failing a rate of 1 m −2 day −1 .

Endeavour, 1997
Abstract There is something rather poignant about seeing a shooting star. In the quiet of the night, under the clear dark sky, one is witnessing the death of a cosmic dust particle, a particle that had its own independent orbit around the Sun, and whose only fault was having an orbit that intersected the Earth's, and being at the intersection point ...

On the Kordylewski cosmic dust clouds [PDF]
2015 International Conference on Mechanics - Seventh Polyakhov's Reading, 2015 The existence of the clouds of interplanetary dust in the neighborhood of the triangular libration points of the Earth-Moon system is discussed. In 1961 polish astronomer K. Kordylewski took photos of the dust clouds in the neighborhood of the libration point L5.

EAS Publications Series, 2009
Silicates form a major component of cosmic dust. This paper summarizes the main structural and spectroscopic properties of amorphous and crystalline silicates. Furthermore, it reviews our knowledge of cosmic silicates in the Galaxy. Recent in-situ studies of presolar silicates extracted from primitive meteorites and anhydrous interplanetary dust ...

Cosmic Dust Toolbox: Microanalytical Instruments and Methods
, 2016When cosmic dust particles were first identified almost 140 years ago, few would have predicted that much would ever be known about these miniscule objects, given the existing state of the art in analytical techniques. Times have changed.

Activation of cosmic dust by cosmic-ray particles
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1967Abstract The magnitude of isotopic changes induced in cosmic dust, due to nuclear interactions of solar and galactic cosmic rays, is calculated for several radioisotopes which seem suitable as signatures of cosmic dust in terrestrial environments. The rates of accretion of these radioisotopes depend on the composition and size distribution of cosmic ...

On March 27, 2013, the administration and astrophysicists of Chelyabinsk State University received emails that again required the organization of a scientific expedition, with a tempting goal. Professor N.N. Gorkavyi advised the recipients of those emails that a dust ring from the Chelyabinsk meteoroid’s remnants was forming around the planet. In order

In this chapter we will try to define a common framework within which most of the processes involving astronomical gas and dust clouds can be understood. Before we can do that, however, we should know something about the temperature, density, state of ionization, and linear dimensions of the clouds and we should summarize the information we have about ...
