ABSTRACT Agglomerated debris particles are realistic model cosmic dust particles that reproduce their highly irregular and fluffy morphology. We compute the absolute magnitude of these model particles in the broad-band filters B, V, R, and I from the widely used Johnson–Cousins photometric system. These data are aimed at providing simple quantitative interpretation of brightness of a cloud of cosmic dust, such as cometary coma, zodiacal light, lunar horizon glow, etc. Using this information, number of dust particles can be estimated from the apparent magnitude of the cloud and therefore the total volume of dust. It is significant that the smallest volume of dust is achieved using submicron particles.

AbstractThe investigations of light scattering by larger meteoritic and terrestrial single grains (size range 20 μm to 120 μm ) demonstrate that the scattering properties of irregularly shaped dark opaque particles with very rough surfaces resemble the characteristic features of the empirical scattering function as derived from measurements of the zodiacal light. Purely transparent or translucent irregularly shaped particles show a quite different scattering behaviour. Furthermore irregular and multicomponent fluffy particles in the size range of a few microns were modelled by microwave analog measurements in order to explain positive and negative polarization of the light scattered by cometary dust grains.
