Scientific paper

GIADA (Grain Impact Analyse and Dust Accumulator) instrument, on board the ROSETTA orbiter, is aimed to analyse physical and dynamical properties of individual grains ejected from the target comet and to monitor the dust flux and spatial distribution as a function of time. To achieve its scientific goals, GIADA is composed of different sub-systems: an optical detection module, to monitor the light scattered by single grains entering the instrument, an impact sensor, to detect the momentum carried by the grains, and five micro-balances, to measure the dust flux from different directions. In this work we report the results obtained during tests and calibration of GIADA and we summarise the performances of the instrument.
