Despite rapidly growing disk observations, it remains a mystery what primordial dust
aggregates look like and what the physical and chemical properties of their constituent …

Most protoplanetary discs are thought to undergo violent and frequent accretion outbursts,
during which the accretion rate and central luminosity are elevated for several decades. This …

The optical properties of particulate-matter aerosols, within the context of exoplanet and
brown dwarf atmospheres, are compared using three different models: Mie theory, modified …

Super-puffs—low-mass exoplanets with extremely low bulk density—are attractive targets for
exploring their atmospheres and formation processes. Recent studies suggested that the …

Context. The optical properties of the second generation dust that we observe in debris disks
remain quite elusive, whether it is the absorption efficiencies at millimeter wavelengths or …

We study the 3 μm scattering feature of water ice detected in the outer disk of HD 142527 by
performing radiative transfer simulations. We show that an ice mass abundance at the outer …

Dust particles are the building blocks from which planetary bodies are made. A major goal of
studies of planet-forming disks is to constrain the properties of dust particles and aggregates …

Aggregated particles and aerosols are common in natural or industrial environments.
Analysing their scattering and absorption properties with precise methods may prove useful …

The pair correlation function, g (r), is a fundamental descriptor of the inner structure of fractal
aggregates of monomers. It provides a natural tool for studying physical properties involving …
