Electrostatic Repulsion of Dust from Planetary Surfaces

Surfaces of planetary bodies can have strong Showman 31" x 32" electric fields, subjecting conductive grains to repulsive electrostatic forces.This has been proposed as a mechanism to eject grains from the ground.To quantify this process, we study millimeter-sized basalt aggregates consisting of micrometer constituents exposed to an electric field
