Head of the laboratory:dr hab. Konrad Kossacki
Localisation:ul. Pasteura 5, B4.13
Institute:IG
Department:APD

This laboratory was originally organized to study geophysical processes on the surfaces of comets and another atmosphere less cosmic bodies rich in ice. The investigated processes include:

- erosion driven by the sublimation of different ices, or complex materials containing ice,

- the occurrence of landslides due to the outgassing of subsurface material.

The laboratory research is performed using our own vacuum chamber.
