QPR values for grain sizes s ∼ 0.1300 μm (left) and the corresponding βPR values (right ; analogous to Fig. 7 of Rigley & Wyatt 2020). The solid lines show the numerical values for the different stellar spectral types used in this study, while the dashed lines (right panel) indicate the analytical βPR values using QPR = 1 (Eq. (2)). The black dots mark the discrete grain sizes adopted in the main study. The dotted black line (right panel) denotes βPR = 0.5. Sizes above this threshold, corresponding to grains blown out of the system for circular orbits, are marked with cross (×) symbols. The size ∼50 μm used in the pilot study is safely higher than the blowout size and meets the assumption of QPR ∼ 1.
