Abstract

Elevation processes of particles by steam injection may play an important role for aerosol production in cometary and planetary atmospheres. The most relevant processes are reviewed. Particles may be lifted both by sublimating or desorbing gases in the upper surface layers. Results from simulation experiments for interplanetary space conditions are reported.
