FIGURE 4.4.1.- The inner region of the asteroid belt (a < 2.2 AU). The main-belt asteroids (2.0 < a < 2.2) have small eccentricities and inclinations: the Apollo-Amor asteroids, higher inclinations and eccentricities; and the Hungaria asteroids (1.8 < a < 2.0), high inclinations but small eccentricities. Data from the Ephemerides of Minor Planets for 1968.
