Description

Kinetic equations are formulated for the distribution function of dust particles in mass and in element spaces. Erosive as well as catastrophic collisions are taken into account. Sputtering is also included and radiative effects are considered. Initial conditions are derived from the Interplanetary Flux Model for mass distribution, and fan or cosine models for spatial density. (author). 2 figs., 8 refs
