different patterns of pressure systems together with local factors, leads in generation, risingand spread of dust in west of iran. in this study, to investigate the factors causing the occurrence of dust inkermanshah province, 132 cases of dust phenomena (code: 06) were selected and analyzed using kermanshahsynoptic station data for the spring and summer seasons in a period of 5 years (2005-200...

Organic matter in extraterrestrial materials has isotopic anomalies in hydrogen and nitrogen that suggest an origin in the presolar molecular cloud or perhaps in the protoplanetary disk. Interplanetary dust particles are generally regarded as the most primitive solar system matter available, in part because until recently they exhibited the most extreme isotope anomalies. However, we show that ...

The Liouville equation is considered for relaxing dusty plasmas consisting initially of equilibrium electrons and ions as well as neutral dust particles. The plasmas relax then due to a collection ofelectrons and ions by dust particles. The free and collected electrons and ions are considered as a common subsystem described by the common whole distribution function. It is shown that this sub-sy...

In this paper diffusion of dust particles in strongly coupled dusty plasma is investigated by using molecular dynamics simulations. Self-diffusion coefficients of complex plasmas are obtained for a wide range of plasma parameters using Green-Kubo expression which is based on integrated velocity autocorrelation function (VACF). It is assumed that dust particles interact with each other by Yukawa...

[1] Calculations from a microphysics model are shown which indicate the factors that control droplet nucleation scavenging of hydrophilic mineral dust particles over a large range of conditions including the size, chemical composition, and number density of particles in both cumulus and stratus clouds. We focus specifically on the activation threshold radius (ATR) for droplet nucleation which d...

Several cases of aerosol plumes resulting from trans-Pacific transport were observed between 2 km and 5.3 km at Whistler, BC from 22 April 2006 to 15 May 2006. The fine particle (<1μm) chemical composition of most of the plumes was dominated by sulphate that ranged from 1–5μg m−3 as measured with a Quadrapole Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (Q-AMS). Coarse particles (>1μm) were enhanced in all sulpha...

To realize automatic measurement of the concentration of dust particles in the air, a theory for dust concentration measurement was developed, and a system was designed to implement the dust concentration measurement method based on laser scattering. In the study, the principle of dust concentration detection using laser scattering is studied, and the detection basis of Mie scattering theory is...

We investigate the effect of a radial pressure bump in a protoplanetary disk on planetesimal formation. We performed the two-dimensional numerical simulation of the dynamical interaction of solid particles and gas with an initially defined pressure bump under the assumption of axisymmetry. The aim of this work is to elucidate the effects of the stellar vertical gravity that were omitted in a pr...

The simulated Doppler shifts of the solar Mg I Fraunhofer line produced by scattering on the solar light by asteroidal, cometary, and trans-Neptunian dust particles are compared with the shifts obtained by Wisconsin H-Alpha Mapper (WHAM) spectrometer. The simulated spectra are based on the results of integrations of the orbital evolution of particles under the gravitational influence of planets...
