Grain Alignment and Rotational Disruption by Radiative Torques in Exoplanet Atmospheres
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Dust clouds are ubiquitous in the atmospheres of hot Jupiters and affect their observable properties. The alignment of dust grains in the clouds and resulting dust polarization provide a promising way to study the magnetic fields of exoplanets. Moreover,

Modeling the Motion and Distribution of Interstellar Dust inside the Heliosphere [PDF]
, 1999 The interaction of dust grains originating from the local interstellar cloud with the environment inside the heliosphere is investigated. As a consequence of this interaction the spatial distribution of interstellar dust grains changes with time.

SEARCH OF THE Na IN THE REGION OF THE SUBLIMATION OF THE NEAR-SUN DUST
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017 An evaluation of the Na number in the sublimation zone of the near-Sun interplanetary dust, based on a comparison with the intensity of the radiation of the Na in the Earth atmosphere, has been obtained.

The Mid-Infrared Spectrum of the Zodiacal and Exozodiacal Light [PDF]
, 2003 The zodiacal light is the dominant source of the mid-infrared sky brightness seen from Earth, and exozodiacal light is the dominant emission from planetary and debris systems around other stars.

Unique, non‐Earthlike, meteoritic ion behavior in upper atmosphere of Mars
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 Interplanetary dust particles have long been expected to produce permanent ionospheric metal ion layers at Mars, as on Earth, but the two environments are so different that uncertainty existed as to whether terrestrial‐established understanding would ...

Meteorites and cosmic dust: Interstellar heritage and nebular processes in the early solar system
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 Small solar system bodies like asteroids and comets have escaped planetary accretion. They are the oldest and best preserved witnesses of the formation of the solar system.

Eccentric Dust Ring in the IRS 48 Transition Disk
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Crescent-shaped structures in transition disks hold the key to studying the putative companions to the central stars. The dust dynamics, especially that of different grain sizes, is important to understanding the role of pressure bumps in planet ...
