Polarization of the Interplanetary Dust Medium (Invited)

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceThe interplanetary dust cloud is visible through its scattered light (the zodiacal light) at visible wavelengths. Brightness observations lead to equilibrium temperature and albedo of the particles and their variation as a function ...

Detailed Radial Scale Height Profile of Dust Grains as Probed by Dust Self-scattering in HL Tau

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The 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

Interaction of interplanetary dust particles with magnetic clouds

open access: yes, 2009
Context. The interaction of the solar wind with interplanetary dust in the inner solar system appears to result in the formation of inner-source pickup ions.

Modeling and Analysis of Main-belt Asteroidal Dust Flux and Velocity Distribution at Inner Planets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Interplanetary dust in the inner solar system originates from multiple sources, including short-period comets and main-belt asteroids. In this work, we focus specifically on the dynamical evolution of asteroid-derived dust using N -body simulations that ...

NanoSIMS-Analyse und hochauflösende Elektronenmikroskopie an präsolaren Silikaten aus roten Riesensternen und Supernovaexplosionen

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis deals with the analysis of “presolar” silicates and oxides by high resolution mass spectrometry and electron microscopy techniques. This “stardust” was identified by its extreme oxygen isotopic anomalies, which point to nucleosynthetic ...

South-North and radial traverses through the interplanetary dust cloud

open access: yes, 1997
Identical in situ dust detectors are flown on board the Galileo and Ulysses spacecraft. They record impacts of micrometeoroids in the ecliptic plane at heliocentric distances from 0.7 to 5.4 AU and in a plane almost perpendicular to the ecliptic from -79

A Search for Meteoroid Streams and Their Sources in the Near-Sun Zodiacal Dust Cloud

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The 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 ...

Cometary evolution : clues on physical properties from chondritic interplanetary dust particles

open access: yes, 1997
The degree of diversity or similarity detected in comets depends primarily on the lifetimes of the individual cometary nuclei at the time of analysis. It is inherent in our understanding of cometary orbital dynamics and the seminal model of comet origins
