5.6 Radial Distribution of Meteoric Particles in Interplanetary Space

An attempt has been made to derive heliocentric distribution of meteoric particles in interplanetary space. Poynting-Robertson effect, collision process, and cometary dust injection have been included in this study. Three different radial distribution functions for different sizes have been derived....

Zusammenfassung:An attempt has been made to derive heliocentric distribution of meteoric particles in interplanetary space. Poynting-Robertson effect, collision process, and cometary dust injection have been included in this study. Three different radial distribution functions for different sizes have been derived. The number density appears to depend on particle size.
