Abstract
Diffusion of macroparticles, charged by solar radiation in microgravity, is studied by analyzing experimental data obtained on the MIR space station. Temperature, velocity distributions, friction coefficient, and diffusion constants were obtained for bronze particles. A comparison of experimental and theoretical estimates shows that the dynamic behavior of the macroparticles for short observation times can be determined by observing the ambipolar diffusion.
