In the last decades, the experimental setup located in Amsterdam,
The Netherlands, has produced a significant number of experimental
scattering matrices as functions of the scattering angle of randomly
oriented small particles. The Dutch setup was closed in 2007. An
improved descendant of the Dutch experimental setup has been recently
constructed at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía, CSIC, the IAA cosmic dust laboratory.
To provide an incentive for further research and applications all
published Dutch and Spanish experimental data are accessible through
this database.

First measurements of the IAA Cosmic Dust Laboratory available
Nov 16th, 2010 The first results of measurements on solid particles (white and green clay) performed at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA) Cosmic Dust Laboratory (Granada, Spain) are available. The laboratory apparatus measures the complete scattering matrix as a function of the scattering angle of aerosol particles. Read more
