Impact mass flux |
MassFlux |
Real Number |
The total impact mass flux from all meteoroid
particulates, found as the integral of the particle impact flux
distribution with respect to mass. |
Impact mass rate |
Mass Per Time |
Real Number |
The rate of total meteoroid impact mass, computed
by multiplying the cross sectional area by the impact mass
flux. |
Impact flux |
Flux |
Real Number |
The total impact flux from all meteoroid
particulates, found as a simple sum of the impact flux of all
particulates. |
Impact rate |
