Deep Space Network Radio Science and Ground‐Based Planetary Radar in the Next Decade
Abstract The Deep Space Network (DSN) has been a core operational element of NASA's crewed and robotic exploration of the Solar System since the early 1960s. The primary role of the DSN has been to acquire telemetry and navigation data, but over the years, its radiometric and radar capabilities have expanded to form a system for obtaining unique ...

INTERSTELLAR DUST CHARGING IN DENSE MOLECULAR CLOUDS: COSMIC RAY EFFECTS [PDF]
The local cosmic-ray (CR) spectra are calculated for typical characteristic regions of a cold, dense molecular cloud to investigate two mechanisms of dust charging that have, thus far, been neglected: the collection of suprathermal CR electrons and ...

Abstract The Emirates Mars Ultraviolet Spectrometer (EMUS) aboard the Emirates Mars Mission (EMM) has been studying backscattered interplanetary hydrogen (interplanetary hydrogen (IPH)) Lyman emissions with dedicated observation strategies viz., U‐OS3b and U‐OS4b. These observation techniques involve looking away from Mars from the EMM's orbit.

The cycling of carbon into and out of dust
Observational evidence seems to indicate that the depletion of interstellar carbon into dust shows rather wide variations and that carbon undergoes rather rapid recycling in the interstellar medium (ISM).

Dust Formation in Astrophysical Environments: The Importance of Kinetics
Astronomical observations and analysis of stardust isolated from meteorites have revealed a highly diverse interstellar and circumstellar grain inventory, including a wide range of amorphous materials and crystalline compounds (silicates and carbon ...

Using numerical models of bow shocks to investigate the circumstellar medium of massive stars
Many massive stars travel through the interstellar medium at supersonic speeds. As a result they form bow shocks at the interface between the stellar wind.

We study the active region in the interstellar medium in which the process of cavity formation is expected. The interaction between wind and its surroundings in the interstellar medium (ISM) provides a laboratory to study the behavior of dust particles.

Magnetic Misalignment of Interstellar Dust Filaments
We present evidence for scale-independent misalignment of interstellar dust filaments and magnetic fields. We estimate the misalignment by comparing millimeter-wave dust-polarization measurements from Planck with filamentary structures identified in ...

Iron and Silicate Dust Growth in the Galactic Interstellar Medium: Clues from Element Depletions [PDF]
The interstellar abundances of refractory elements indicate a substantial depletion from the gas phase, which increases with gas density. Our recent model of dust evolution, based on hydrodynamic simulations of the life cycle of giant molecular clouds ...
