Fig. 4.

Opacities for four different materials for a range of size distribution slopes and wavelengths. Values are given for stellar luminosity L = L⊙, a distance r = 100 au, and a total disc mass Md = 0.1MEarth. The maximum object radius is set to smax = 100 km for water ice and 1 km for carbon and the silicates. Mie results are plotted with solid lines for five size distribution indexes from (top) p = 4.2 to (bottom) p = 2.6. Sloped dashed lines trace power-law fits to wavelengths from λ1 = 1 mm to the shorter of λ2 = 7 mm and the maximum wavelength in the tabulated optical data. Vertical dashed lines indicate λ1 and λ2.
