8915: 7744: 956: 1207:. Asteroid particles that produce visible zodiacal light average about 40 μm in radius. The typical lifetimes of main-belt zodiacal cloud particles are about 700,000 years. Thus, to maintain the bands of dust, new particles must be steadily produced within the asteroid belt. It was once thought that collisions of asteroids form a major component of the zodiacal light. However, computer simulations by Nesvorný and colleagues attributed 85 percent of the zodiacal-light dust to fragmentations of Jupiter-family comets, rather than to comets and collisions between asteroids in the asteroid belt. At most 10 percent of the dust is attributed to the asteroid belt. 6136: 405: 839: 128: 6124: 780: 1260: 1238: 7750: 6118: 1450: 700: 1271: 8921: 8713: 7487: 903:-rich) asteroids are more common toward the inner region of the belt, within 2.5 AU of the Sun. The spectra of their surfaces reveal the presence of silicates and some metal, but no significant carbonaceous compounds. This indicates that their materials have been significantly modified from their primordial composition, probably through melting and reformation. They have a relatively high albedo and form about 17% of the total asteroid population. 4546: 999: 867: 604: 5826: 10787: 1045: 40: 10775: 10751: 6130: 10763: 521: 253:, is about 950 km in diameter, whereas Vesta, Pallas, and Hygiea have mean diameters less than 600 km.
