Particle concentration in the asteroid belt from Pioneer 10

The spatial concentration and size distribution for particles measured by the asteroid/meteoroid detector on Pioneer 10 between 2 and 3.5 AU are presented. The size distribution is from about 35 micrometers to 10 centimeters. The exponent of the size dependence varies from approximately -1.7 for the smallest to approximately -3.0 for the largest size measured.
