Laboratorní studium nabíjení prachu a jeho ionizace dopadem

Nouzák, Libor

Dust is an almost ubiquitous component of the cosmic plasma (e.g., planetary and cometary magnetospheres, the heliosphere, the interstellar medium, supernova shells). However, it can be also frequently encountered in industrial applications as a principal agent in material treatments, or as an undesirable ingredient in a production of microelectronic components, or in fusion devices. Since dust particles are one of the main elements of interest in the solar system (e.g., Earth, Jovian and Saturnian systems) and in the interstellar medium, there is a number of missions (e.g., ROSETTA, Cassini) that provided investigations of the properties and global dynamics of charged dust grains. In these environments, the relevant charging processes are interactions with electrons and ions of the solar wind and photoemission by solar UV radiation that often dominates. However, in-site investigations of such processes are difficult because several processes act in accord. The present thesis studies charging processes in laboratory settings where these processes can be investigated separately. In the first series of experiments focused on applications in the lunar or planetary surroundings, a single (charged) dust grain is stored in an electrodynamic trap and expose to electron and/or ion beams with variable energies and...
