  • First Online:
Astromineralogy

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Physics ((LNP,volume 609))

Abstract

In this chapter, the main techniques for producing and characterizing cosmic dust analogues in the laboratory will be discussed. It will be shown how optical data of astronomically relevant materials can be measured and how such data can be applied to interpret astronomical spectra. The identification of minerals in space from infrared spectroscopy will be summarized.
