As in Fig. 13 but for the orbit of Geminids. In this case also a “corridor” forms, for which the dust particles can approach the Sun much closer than the parent body. We note the large disagreement between the phase space model(solid line) and full simulation for one data point. This is caused by the encounter of the nanodust particle soon after emission with the heliospheric current sheet (the phase space model does not include the current sheet).
