TL;DR: The Cassini-Huygens Cosmic Dust Analyzer (CDA) is intended to provide direct observations of dust grains with masses between 10-19 and 10-9 kg in interplanetary space and in the jovian and satumian systems, to investigate their physical, chemical and dynamical properties as functions of the distances to the Sun, to Jupiter and to Saturn and its satellites and rings as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: All bursts of dust impacts detected within 150 Saturn radii are characterized by impact directions markedly different from those measured between the bursts, and they clearly coincide with the spacecraft's traversals through streams of compressed solar wind.

TL;DR: During Cassini's approach to Saturn, the Cosmic Dust Analyser discovered streams of tiny high-velocity dust particles escaping from the saturnian system, which implies that the particles are impurities from the icy ring material rather than the ice particles themselves.

TL;DR: Cassini-Huygens mission, a cooperative endeavor of NASA, ESA, ASI, NASA, and French National Research Agency (RNSA), is described in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the data obtained by the Galileo in situ dust instrument for interstellar dust (ISD) is presented, where the authors infer that the flux of ISD grains between 0.7 AU and 3 AU is about 4 × 10 -5 m -2 s -1.
