Lower limit Upper limit Lower limit Upper limit

3.79 × 106 1.6 × 105 5.1 × 105 0.1 15

Notes.

(a)

Derived dust cross-section.

(b)

Derived dust mass in the coma annulus. The lower limit corresponds to grains in the range 10 μm1 cm, The upper limit corresponds to grains in the range 10 μm10 cm.

(c)

Derived dust mass-loss rate: the lower limit corresponds to grains in the range 10 μm–1 cm crossing the projected coma annulus at v = 1 m/s, the upper limit corresponds to grains in the range 10 μm–10 cm crossing the projected coma annulus at v = 50 m/s.
