Time-Synchronized Microwave Cavity Resonance Spectroscopy and Laser Light Extinction Measurements as a Diagnostic for Dust Particle Size and Dust Density in a Low-Pressure Radio-Frequency Driven Nanodusty Plasma

Applied Sciences, 2022
In a typical laboratory nanodusty plasma, nanometer-sized solid dust particles can be generated from the polymerization of reactive plasma species. The interplay between the plasma and the dust gives rise to behavior that is vastly different from that of

Physical aspects of dust–plasma interactions [PDF]

Contributions to Plasma Physics, 2021
AbstractLow‐pressure gas discharge plasmas are known to be strongly affected by the presence of small dust particles. This issue plays a role in the investigations of dust particle‐forming plasmas, where the dust‐induced instabilities may affect the properties of synthesized dust particles.

Simulation of grid morphology’s effect on ion optics and the local electric field

AIP Advances, 2022
Electric field ion optics are employed by many scientific instruments for investigating ions, e.g., using time-of-flight mass spectrometers. A common design feature of such instruments is the grounded grid that provides boundaries between regions that ...

Physical Properties of Cometary Dust [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1991
AbstractPrior to the 1986 apparition of comet Halley, all attempts to determine the physical properties of cometary dust were limited to remote observations and the analysis of various particles captured by the Earth’s atmosphere. The in situ measurements made by the three spacecraft that passed within 10,000 km of the nucleus provided the first ...

PHANGS–JWST First Results: Measuring Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Properties across the Multiphase Interstellar Medium

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Ratios of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) vibrational bands are a promising tool for measuring the properties of the PAH population and their effect on star formation.

Physical Modeling of the Zodiacal Dust Cloud [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2001
This review is based on extensive work done in collaboration with N. Gorkavyi, J. Mather, and T. Taidakova, which aimed at physical modeling of the interplanetary dust (IPD) cloud in the Solar System, i.e., establishing a link between the observable characteristics of the zodiacal cloud and the dynamical and physical properties of the parent minor ...

PHANGS–JWST First Results: Variations in PAH Fraction as a Function of ISM Phase and Metallicity

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present maps tracing the fraction of dust in the form of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in IC 5332, NGC 628, NGC 1365, and NGC 7496 from JWST/MIRI observations.

Assessment of a Mid-Fidelity Numerical Approach for the Investigation of Tiltrotor Aerodynamics

Applied Sciences, 2021
The study of the complex aerodynamics that characterise tiltrotors represents a challenge for computational fluid dynamics tools. URANS numerical solvers are typically used to explore the aerodynamic features that characterise the different flight ...

Physical Properties of Five Grain Dust Types [PDF]

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1986
Physical properties of grain dust derived from five grain types (soybean, rice, corn, wheat, and sorghum) were measured and reported. The grain dusts were obtained from dust collection systems of terminal grain handling facilities and were assumed to be representative of grain dust generated during the handling process. The physical properties reported

Effects of Barnett Magnetic Dipole–Dipole Interaction on Grain Growth and Destruction

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Rapidly spinning magnetic grains can acquire large magnetic dipole moments due to the Barnett effect. Here we study the new effect of Barnett magnetic dipole–dipole interaction on grain–grain collisions and grain growth, assuming that grains are spun up ...
