    Discovery of Jovian dust streams and interstellar grains by the Ulysses spacecraft (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: Within 1 AU from Jupiter, the dust detector aboard the Ulysses spacecraft during the flyby on February 8, 1992 recorded periodic bursts of submicron dust particles with durations ranging from several hours to two days and occurring at about monthly intervals. These particles arrived at Ulysses in collimate streams radiating from close to the line-of-sight direction to Jupiter, suggesting a Jovian origin for the periodic bursts. Ulysses also detected a flux of micron-sized dust particles moving in high-velocity retrograde orbits. These grains are identified here as being of interstellar origin.

    Galileo and Ulysses dust measurements - From Venus to Jupiter (1992)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: The Galileo and Ulysses spaceprobes carry two similar dust detectors through interplanetary space from Venus to Jupiter. Impacts are reported which correspond to dust particles above a mass threshold of about 10 exp 13 g for which complete records exist. Between December 1989 and January 1992 Galileo repeatedly traversed interplanetary space between 0.7 and 2.26 AU and recorded 374 impacts. The observed impact rates ranged from 0.1 to about 3 impacts per day strongly dependent on whether the spacecraft moved toward or away from the sun. From October 1990 to January 1992 the Ulysses spacecraft had reached a distance of 5.17 AU from the sun and had recorded 72 impacts at rates between 0.1 and 0.5 per day. Inside about 2 AU the observed fluxes are compatible with a population of interplanetary dust particles moving on low to moderately eccentric and low inclination orbits. Outside this distance a dust particle population on different orbits is required in order to explain the Ulysses data.

    Mass input into and output from the meteoritic complex (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: The consequences which arise from the mutual collisions occurring between interplanetary meteoroids, the Poynting-Robertson (PR) effect and the radiation pressure ejection of small meteoroids are examined. The size distribution and flux of micrometeoroids at 1 AU are derived and the dependence of spatial density on distance from the sun is established. The following conclusions are made: (1) the lifetimes of meteoroids with masses approximately greater than 0.00001 g are dominated by catastrophic collisions; (2) after bering crushed by collisions, 70 to 85 percent of this mass will be in the form of zodiacal light particles (with masses in the range of 10 to the -10th g to 10 to the -5th g) which will in part be transported by the PR effect towards the sun where they will evaporate; (3) the 15 to 30 percent of the collisional fragments which have masses approximately less than 10 to the -10th g will, for the most part, be injected into hyperbolic orbits by radiation pressure.

    The interplanetary micrometeoroid flux and lunar primary and secondary microcraters (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: It is proposed that considerable care is required to properly interpret either spacecraft in situ data or lunar crater data as well as near-earth data; in the case of the former, complications may arise which may be attributed to secondary lunar ejecta impacts, in the latter, they may result from impacting earth-orbiting debris. Experimental evidence suggests that most impact pits on lunar rocks with pit diameters smaller than 7 micrometers have been generated by lunar secondary ejecta impacts and not by primary meteoroid impacts. It is also found that lunar crater production rates are more accurate when deduced from meteoroid space experiments and not from solar flare track ages. It is concluded that in so far as all of the above qualifications are taken into account, a self-consistent meteoroid flux versus mass distribution is obtained.

    Composition of comet Halley dust particles from Giotto observations (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Mass spectra of cometary dust particles measured by the PIA dust particle analyzer aboard the Giotto spacecraft show some unexpected and striking features. First, small particles below 10 to the -14th g are much more abundant than anticipated by models. Second, most of the particles are rich in light elements such as H, C, N, and O, suggesting the validity of models that describe the cometary dust as including organic material. Third, the light elements specifically seem to have a low ratio of mass to volume. Three examples of original mass spectra showing typical compositions are given; these have been measured, and are compared with a computer-simulated mass spectrum.

    Morphology and chemistry of projectile residue in small experimental impact craters (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Small-scale impact craters (5-7 mm in diameter) were produced with a light gas gun in high purity Au and Cu targets using soda lime glass (SL) and man-made basalt glass (BG) as projectiles. Maximum impact velocity was 6.4 km/s resulting in peak pressures of approximately 120-150 GPa. Copious amounts of projectile melts are preserved as thin glass liners draping the entire crater cavity; some of this liner may be lost by spallation, however. SEM investigations reveal complex surface textures including multistage flow phenomena and distinct temporal deposition sequences of small droplets. Inasmuch as some of the melts were generated at peak pressures greater than 120 GPa, these glasses represent the most severely shocked silicates recovered from laboratory experiments to date. Major element analyses reveal partial loss of alkalis; Na2O loss of 10-15 percent is observed, while K2O loss may be as high as 30-50 percent. Although the observed volatile loss in these projectile melts is significant, it still remains uncertain whether target melts produced on planetary surfaces are severely fractionated by selective volatilization processes.

    The role of organic polymers in the structure of cometary dust (1992)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: Several phenomena observed in P/Halley and other comets indicate additional fragmentation of dust particles or dust aggregates in cometary atmospheres. The disintegration of dust aggregates may be explained by sublimation of polymerized formaldehyde - POM - which play a role as binding material between submicron individual particles.

    Collisional balance of the meteoritic complex (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: The present study has the objective to reevaluate the size distribution of interplanetary meteoroids on the basis of the most recent data, and to analyze the probable nature of the sinks and sources of meteoritic material. The flux of interplanetary meteorites at 1 AU is discussed, taking into account general characteristics, lunar crater distribution, flux curves, spatial densities, and cross-sectional distribution and light scattering. Collisional effects are examined, giving attention to catastrophic collisions, collision rate, and destroyed mass and generated fragments. The effect of radiation pressure on small particles is considered along with the difference between the lunar and interplanetary flux models, collisional evolution at 1 AU, potential sources for large meteoroids, and observational evidence of losses of small micrometeoroids.

    On dust emissions from the jovian system (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-01-25
    Description: As described by Grun et al. the dust impact detector on the Ulysses spacecraft detected a totally unexpected series of dust streams in the outer solar system near the orbit of Jupiter. Five considerations lead us to believe that the dust streams emanate from the jovian system itself: (1) the dust streams only occur within about 1 AU of the jovian system, with the strongest stream being the one closest to Jupiter (about 550 R(sub J) away); (2) the direction from which they arrive is never far from the line-of-sight direction to Jupiter; (3) the time period between streams is about 28 (plus or minus 3) days; (4) the impact velocities are very high - mostly around 40 km s(exp -1); and (5) we can think of no cometary, asteroidal, or interstellar source that could give rise to the above four phenomena; such streams have never before been detected.
