dust particles
Airborne tiny debris
Dust particles are tiny fragments of solid matter suspended in air or settled on surfaces.
The term appears in scientific, environmental, and everyday contexts to describe the microscopic debris that accumulates indoors or floats in atmosphere: Dust particles danced in the shaft of sunlight.
The phrase emphasizes the physical composition of dust rather than treating it as an undifferentiated mass.
