Density plots of MIDAS particle shape descriptors for each dust collection target. The graph of target 15 shows narrow high spikes due to low statistics, contrary to the smooth graph of target 14 resulting from a high number of data points. Overall, the particle shapes seem to be similarly distributed independently from the collection target, i.e., the collection velocity, the cometary source region, or the period of dust emission from the comet.
