Levitation and dynamics of charged dust in the photoelectron sheath above surfaces in space

Bodies in space subject to solar ultraviolet flux will emit photoelectrons. At steady state the current of escaping photoelectrons is balanced by an influx of particles from the surrounding plasma. When the photoelectrons dominate the space charge close to the surface, it has previously been shown t...
