This work explores characteristics of the negative polarization branch (NPB), which occurs in
scattered light from rough surfaces, with particular focus on the effects of fine particles …

Atmospheric aerosols play key roles in climate and have important impacts on human
activities and health. Hence, much effort is directed towards developing methods of …

We present experimental phase function and degree of linear polarization curves for seven
samples of cometary dust analogues namely: ground pieces of Allende, DaG521 …

We explore experimentally possible explanations of the polarization curves of the sunlight
reflected by the Barbarian asteroids. Their peculiar polarization curves are characterized by …

The investigation of asteroids near the Sun is important for understanding the final
evolutionary stage of primitive Solar system objects. A near-Sun asteroid (NSA),(155140) …

We have monitored the Didymos–Dimorphos binary system in imaging polarimetric mode
before and after the impact from the Double Asteroid Redirection Test mission. A previous …

Context. Polarization phase curves of asteroids and other small airless bodies are
influenced by the compositional and physical properties of their regolith. The mixing of …

When the temperature and pressure conditions allow it, water ice can deposit as frost on the
regolith of planetary surfaces. Frost is an important indicator of the surface physical …

Earth's atmosphere contains interplanetary dust particles (IDPs), which are a key ingredient
to understand planetary phenomena, yet the study of their physicochemical properties …

We present the experimental phase function, degree of linear polarization (DLP), and linear
depolarization (δ L) curves of a set of forsterite samples representative of low-absorbing …
