Heliocentric coverage (in au) of strands.

	Pre-perihelion strands		Post-perihelion strands
	Midpoint	r range	Midpoint	r range
Min.	0.56	0.50	0.72	0.50
25%	2.68	1.39	2.57	1.17
50%	3.90	2.35	4.16	2.04
75%	5.37	3.76	5.33	3.11
Max.	15.05	19.87	10.09	10.21

Notes. Statistics of heliocentric distance and range (in au) of the strands analyzed. Strand midpoints were calculated in log space since fitting is linear in log r.
