An event entitled 'Dust and grains in low gravity and space environment' will take place from 2 to 4 April 2012 in Noordwijk, the Netherlands.

Dust and grains are found through space and may be exposed to a variety of different environments. A broad community of scientists are researching the many facets of dust and grain physics and chemistry, with complementary objectives, tools and models.

This area of study is important because it is important to understand how dust and grains are formed, charge effects, aggregation kinetics, optical properties, interactions with a local environment, mechanisms of compaction, mechanical properties and other areas inter-related.

The workshop will be a forum for stakeholders to discuss dust and grains in the space environment, including:
- dust in rocky environment;
- icy and refractory environments;
- free-floating environments.For further information, please visit: http://congrexprojects.com/11M24(opens in new window)
