Optical Models of the Three Dimensional Distribution of Interplanetary Dust
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Several models of three dimensional distributions of the interplanetary dust number densities are compared with observational values. It is shown that a comparatively satisfying fit can be achieved by distributions similar to the “Sombrero-Model” of Dumont and that multilobe models as recently proposed by Buitrago et al. can be rejected due to discrepancies with rocket photometry of the inner zodiacal light.
