Tiny Travelers: Small Bodies and Dust in Space
Convener: Jiri Pavlu | Co-conveners: Cem Berk Senel, Chrysa Avdellidou

The session convenes researchers investigating various aspects of small celestial bodies and dust in planetary atmospheres and surrounding space. Discussions encompass asteroids, comets, meteoroids, meteors, meteorites, dust (including its behavior, charging, lifting, and settling on planetary surfaces), and more. We welcome contributions on Martian moons that aim to study Phobos and Deimos' physical properties and understand their origin. The session emphasizes the multidisciplinary nature of such studies, incorporating laboratory experiments, numerical simulations, and observations. It provides insights into small bodies' evolutionary and compositional aspects, elucidating their role in shaping space environments. We invite presenters to showcase recent and upcoming space missions, warmly welcome early career scientists, foster collaborative ideas, and encourage the presentation of cross-disciplinary research.
