Scientific paper

The present work shows the proportion of interstellar meteors from different mass ranges (exceeding 20 orders of mass scale) detected by various observational techniques. Having analysed the IAU Meteor Data Center, we find that the mass index of interstellar particles continuously increases towards higher masses, but there is a significant change between 10-10 - 10-11 kg. This break is possibly caused by different physical processes leading to different populations of interstellar particles and might be connected with their origin.
