Modeling the secondary emission yield of salty ice dust grains

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Secondary emission is one of important processes leading to dust grain charging in many plasma environments. The secondary yield varies with the grain material, shape, and size. Several experiments confirmed that the yield of small grains differs from that of planar samples. Among other materials, ices of different compositions can be frequently found in the interplanetary space and/or planetary magnetospheres. However, the admixtures can significantly influence the inner structure of such materials andthus may change their yield. We present numerical simulations that provide a realistic description of the secondary emission process from water ice grains. The simulations reveal that the secondary emission yield increases as the grain dimension decreases to tens of nanometers. The yield of backscattered primary electrons approaches unity and the grain can be charged to high positive potentials under these conditions. We found that any reasonable admixture of NaCl does not alter seconda
