Local projected density of asteroids in the solar neighborhood (within 30 pc) in two projections. On the X − Y plane for the upper panel is a projection in the galactic plane, whereas the bottom panel shows the X − Z projection. The kernel-density smoothing kernel used was 0.104 pc. The red shades give the projected density of asteroids around the Sun. The contours give the local density only for the asteroids that originally orbited one of the ten stars in Table 1.
