Effect of neutral winds on the creation of non-specular meteor trail echoes [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2021 Non-specular meteor trail echoes are radar reflections from plasma instabilities that are caused by field-aligned irregularities. Meteor simulations are examined to show that these plasma instabilities, and thus the associated meteor trail echo, strongly

Formation of plasma around a small meteoroid: simulation and theory [PDF]
, 2018 High‐power large‐aperture radars detect meteors by reflecting radio waves off dense plasma that surrounds a hypersonic meteoroid as it ablates in the Earth's atmosphere.

Assessing the meteoroid risk in near earth space
Open Astronomy, 2018 The meteoroid risk in circumterrestrial space is basically caused by 1-10 mm meteoroid bodies. Meteoroid particles of such dimensions cannot be registered by modern monitoring astronomical instruments.

Modern radar techniques and the hazard of meteoroids to space platforms
Annals of Geophysics, 1998 Modern radar techniques, and in particular ground based radars, are a powerful tool to observe space objects (natural meteoroids and artificial space debris) on account of their all-weather and day-and-night performance.

Meteoritic influence on sodium and potassium abundance in the lunar exosphere measured by LADEE
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 The Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) orbited the Moon for approximately 6 months, taking data with the Lunar Dust Experiment (LDEX), Ultraviolet‐Visible Spectrometer (UVS), and Neutral Mass Spectrometer (NMS).
