Motivated by new infrared observations, we examine the contribution of various size intervals of interplanetary dust particles to visible and infrared scattered radiances of the solar F-corona, employing Mie theory and particle size distributions based upon differing interpretations of lunar microcrater evidence and interplanetary flux measurements.
