Detection of Biological Bricks in Space. The Case of Adenine in Silica Aerogel

Life, 2019
Space missions using probes to return dust samples are becoming more frequent. Dust collectors made of silica aerogel blocks are used to trap and bring back extraterrestrial particles for analysis.

Mars' O+ ${\mathbf{O}}^{+}$ and O2+ ${\mathbf{O}}_{\mathbf{2}}^{+}$ Ion Escape During Disappearing Solar Wind Events

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Disappearing solar wind events (DSWEs), intervals when the solar wind proton density <1 cm−3 ${\text{cm}}^{-3}$, represent one extreme of the Mars solar wind interaction. Using data from NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission from February 2016 to May 2024, 154 orbits across 90 unique days were identified.

New Horizons Venetia Burney Student Dust Counter Observes Higher than Expected Fluxes Approaching 60 au

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The NASA New Horizons Venetia Burney Student Dust Counter (SDC) measures dust particle impacts along the spacecraft’s flight path for grains with mass ≥10 ^−12 g, mapping out their spatial density distribution.

Interplanetary dust: a source of noise for LISA?

, 2009
This paper reports the investigation of a potential source of noise in the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). The effect, not yet discussed in the literature, is a phase noise due to the presence of interplanetary dust along the path of LISA ...

Toward a General Theory of Grain Alignment and Disruption by Radiative Torques and Magnetic Relaxation

The Astrophysical Journal
We generalize the magnetically enhanced radiative torque (MRAT) theory for astrophysical environments described by a dimensionless parameter U /( n _1 T _2 ) with U the radiation strength, n _1  =  n _H /(10 cm ^−3 ) the normalized hydrogen density, and ...
