Polarimetry in Planetary Sciences and Astronomy

C. H. Lucas Patty, Jonathan Grone, Brice-Olivier Demory +7

In recent decades, the relevance of polarimetry in planetary sciences and astronomy has increased rapidly. Polarization is a fundamental property of light and can be modified by an…

Gas permeability and mechanical properties of dust grain aggregates at hyper- and zero-gravity

Holly L. Capelo, Jean-David Bodénan, Martin Jutzi +13

Particle-particle and particle-gas processes significantly impact planetary precursors such as dust aggregates and planetesimals. We investigate gas permeability () in 12 granul…

Reflection, emission, and polarization properties of surfaces made of hyperfine grains, and implications for the nature of primitive small bodies

Robin Sultana, Olivier Poch, Pierre Beck +8

There are various indications that the most primitive small bodies (P, D-type asteroids, comets) have surfaces made of intimate mixtures of opaque minerals and other components (si…

TEMPus VoLA: the Timed Epstein Multi-pressure Vessel at Low Accelerations

Holly L. Capelo, Jonas Kühn, Antoine Pommerol +12

The field of planetary system formation relies extensively on our understanding of the aerodynamic interaction between gas and dust in protoplanetary disks. Of particular importanc…

Spectropolarimetry of life: airborne measurements from a hot air balloon

Willeke Mulder, C. H. Lucas Patty, Stefano Spadaccia +6

Does life exist outside our Solar System? A first step towards searching for life outside our Solar System is detecting life on Earth by using remote sensing applications. One powe…

The fate of icy pebbles undergoing sublimation in protoplanetary discs

Stefano Spadaccia, Holly L. Capelo, Antoine Pommerol +4

Icy pebbles may play an important role in planet formation close to the water ice line of protoplanetary discs. There, dust coagulation is more efficient and re-condensation of vap…

Biosignatures of the Earth I. Airborne spectropolarimetric detection of photosynthetic life

C. H. Lucas Patty, Jonas G. Kühn, Petar H. Lambrev +10

Context. Homochirality is a generic and unique property of life on Earth and is considered a universal and agnostic biosignature. Homochirality induces fractional circular polariza…
