SAMPLE

Name: Interplanetary dust analog #4

Composition : 40% of carbon (monomers in the 40 - 95 nm size range), 60% of minerals (silicates + basalt). In comparison with sample #2, the number of 20 µm particles has been increased by 20 % and he number of 30 µm particles bas been increased by 10%.

Sample to simulate the interplanetary dust at a distance of 0.8 UA from the Sun
