Estimating the density of space debris as a function of orbital elements and size is crucial for determining the risk of collision of spacecraft. For objects 1 cm or larger in diameter, this information can be obtained using beam park observations made with powerful ground based radars. This study presents a novel technique for estimating the density of space debris as a function of orbital elements ...
