Orbit of the Earth, asteroid Ceres, Jupiter, and Saturn around the Sun, with the β-cones shown by colored dotted lines. The positions for which we show the β-Q/m plots in Appendix C and size distributions in Sects. 5.1.1, 5.2.3, and 5.3.1 are indicated as blue dots. The left plot corresponds to the defocusing phase, and the right plot corresponds to the focusing phase of the solar cycle for the asteroid and Jupiter orbits. Galileo was flying from 1996 until 2003 and was thus in large parts of its orbit in the β-cones, as well as moving in the same direction of the dust flow.
