The impact ionization charge yield is experimentally measured from four common materials
used in space and specifically on the two STEREO spacecraft (germanium‐coated black …

Abstract Parker Solar Probe's (PSP's) FIELDS instrument provides a measure of the dust
impact rate on the spacecraft with a full-coverage summary of the voltages recorded by the …

The zodiacal cloud is one of the largest structures in the solar system and strongly governed
by meteoroid collisions near the Sun. Collisional erosion occurs throughout the zodiacal …

A strong spatial association between bipolar electrostatic solitary waves (ESWs) and
magnetic current sheets (CSs) in the solar wind is reported here for the first time. This …

The first in situ measurements of electric and magnetic fields in the near‐Sun environment (<
0.25 AU from the Sun) will be made by the FIELDS instrument suite on the Solar Probe Plus …

Cosmic dust particles are small solid objects observed in the solar planetary system and in
many astronomical objects like the surrounding of stars, the interstellar and even the …

In situ observation of dust grains from various origins is routinely performed by space
missions equipped with radio instruments. These measurements consist in observations of …

Observations of hypervelocity dust particles impacting the Wind spacecraft are reported here
for the first time using data from the Wind/WAVES electric field instrument. A unique …

This work examines the variation of interplanetary dust count rates and directionality during
the first three solar encounters made by the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, covering …

Interstellar dust from the Local Interstellar Cloud was detected unambiguously for the first
time in 1992 (Grün et al. in Nature 362: 428–430, 1993). Since then, great progress has …
