论文摘要

十二生座的光是沿黄道平面上可见的夜光。它代表了与太阳光相关的背景辐射,这些辐射是散布在太阳和行星周围的尘埃颗粒的脆弱的扁平星际云。这是一个有趣的研究主题,作为落在地球上的微型度量的来源,是与太阳系小体的活性的联系,但也是一个前景,它掩盖了低亮度外天文学光源。 在这篇综述中,我们总结了在各种波长范围内从地面和亮度和极化中从地面和空间中进行的十二生道光观测。在某些给定位置,行星际灰尘颗粒的局部特性可以从沿着视觉的十二生肖光的反转中检索。我们表明,当前的社区共识偏爱,大多数在1 AU处检测到的星际尘埃颗粒源自彗星的活性。 然后,我们目前对星际尘埃颗粒特性的理解是在与67p/churyumov-Gerasimenko彗星的Rosetta Rendezvous太空任务的最新结果中讨论的。

The zodiacal light is a night-glow mostly visible along the plane of the ecliptic. It represents the background radiation associated with solar light scattered by the tenuous flattened interplanetary cloud of dust particles surrounding the Sun and the planets. It is an interesting subject of study, as the source of the micrometeoroids falling on Earth, as a link to the activity of the small bodies of the Solar System, but also as a foreground that veils the low brightness extrasolar astronomical light sources. In this review, we summarize the zodiacal light observations that have been done from the ground and from space in brightness and polarization at various wavelength ranges. Local properties of the interplanetary dust particles in some given locations can be retrieved from the inversion of the zodiacal light integrated along the light-of-sight. We show that the current community consensus favors that the majority of the interplanetary dust particles detected at 1 au originate from the activity of comets. Our current understanding of the interplanetary dust particles properties is then discussed in the context of the recent results from the Rosetta rendezvous space mission with comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
