A 10 μm spectroscopic survey of Herbig Ae star disks: Grain growth and crystallization (2005, background): “…in the hot inner disk and subsequent radial transport of this material outward, and (2) local production of crystalline material at large distance from the star in transient heating events caused by shocks (e.g. Harker & Desch 2002) or lightning (e.g. Pilipp et al. 1998; Desch & Cuzzi 2000).”
Size-selective Concentration of Chondrules and Other Small Particles in Protoplanetary Nebula Turbulence (2000, background): “SpeciÐcally, Desch & Cuzzi (2000) showed that TC itself is an enabling factor in generation of nebula lightning.”
Electric and magnetic signatures of dust devils from the 2000–2001 MATADOR desert tests (2004, background): “The dust devil behaves as a natural electric generator, tribo-charging [Ette, 1971; Desch and Cuzzi, 2000] and separating grains on the basis of their mass, generating voltages possibly in excess of 0.5 MV.”
Paleomagnetic Records of Meteorites and Early Planetesimal Differentiation (2010, background): “…also been intimately involved in the formation and/or magnetization of the earliest solar system macroscopic solids, inclusions and chondrules in chondrites (Levy and Araki 1989; Shu et al. 1996, 1997; Crawford and Schultz 1999; Desch and Cuzzi 2000; Desch and Connolly 2002; Joung et al. 2004).”
