The Planetary Science JournalImpact ejecta with velocities exceeding the escape velocity of planetary bodies become meteorites and dust particles in interplanetary space. We present a new method that allows simultaneous measurement of the size and velocity of the largest high ...

The radiation-induced rotation of cosmic dust particles: A feasibility study [PDF]
A crossed beam, horizontal optical trap, used to achieve laser levitation of particles in an effort to determine how solar radiation produces high spin rate in interplanetary dust particles, is described.

Remarkably high abundance of presolar grains in interplanetary dust particles collected from the comet Grigg-Skjellerup dust stream [PDF]
, 2007 Isotopic studies of IDPs collected from the comet Grigg-Skjellerup dust stream reveal extremely high abundances of presolar grains in two of four IDPs. These abundances exceed those of any other extraterrestrial material analyzed and support a cometary ...

Assessing the Cosmic Infrared Background Monopole from Far-infrared to Millimeter Wavelengths
The Astrophysical JournalWe measured the cosmic infrared background (CIB) monopole for the COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) and Planck High-Frequency Instrument (HFI) bands with an updated model for the Galactic dust emission. This model includes a dust excess

Solar Energetic Particle Track Accumulation in Edgeworth–Kuiper Belt Dust Grains
The Planetary Science JournalInterplanetary dust grains (IDPs) originate from a variety of sources and are dynamically transported across the solar system. While in transport, high- Z solar energetic particles (SEPs) with energies of ∼1 MeV nuc ^−1 leave damage tracks as they pass ...

Detailed Radial Scale Height Profile of Dust Grains as Probed by Dust Self-scattering in HL Tau
The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe vertical settling of dust grains in a circumstellar disk, characterized by their scale height, is a pivotal process in the formation of planets. This study offers in-depth analysis and modeling of the radial scale height profile of dust grains in the

A Search for Meteoroid Streams and Their Sources in the Near-Sun Zodiacal Dust Cloud
The Astrophysical JournalThe structure and dynamics of the zodiacal cloud close to the Sun may be significantly influenced by the interaction between a background quasihomogeneous zodiacal cloud and discrete meteoroid streams associated with small bodies like comets and ...
