Interplanetary nanodust as a final stage of evolution of the solid substance of small bodies of the solar system

Abstract

In this paper, the processes of nanometric dust formation in the Solar System and interactions of nanodust with external factors and forces, are considered. The mechanisms of zodiacal dust luminescence, the concept of unidentified interplanetary lines and the possible presence of nano-diamond dust are proposed. Other aspects of the problem are also discussed, including the nanodust’s resonance absorption of the solar radiation.
