The 11th meeting on Cosmic Dust

The 11th meeting on Cosmic Dust will be held August 13–17, 2018, at the Sagamihara Campus of JAXA, Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, Japan

The subject of discussion includes all kinds of cosmic dust such as interstellar, protoplanetary and debris disk dust, presolar grains, cometary and interplanetary dust, micrometeorites, meteoroids, meteors, regolith particles and planetary aerosols. The meeting is open for any aspects of dust research by means of different methods of studies (in-situ and laboratory measurements, astronomical observations, laboratory and numerical simulations, theoretical modeling, data analysis, etc.). Also welcome are papers on dust-related topics, for example: the formation of molecules and their reactions on and their desorption from the surface of a solid substance; light scattering by non-spherical particles and particulate surfaces; space missions and instrumentation for measurements of particulates.
