 Mass normalization of a power-law size distribution

For spherical planetesimals with mass density $\rho$ and total-number distribution $n(D)=K{D}^{-\alpha }$ between $D_{\min }$ and $D_{\max }$,Thus $K=6M_{\mathrm{tot}}(4-\alpha )/[\pi \rho (D_{\max }^{4-\alpha }-D_{\min }^{4-\alpha })]$ for $\alpha \ne 4$. At $\alpha =4$, use $K=6M_{\mathrm{tot}}/[\pi \rho \log (D_{\max }/D_{\min })]$. Divide $n(D)$ by belt volume to obtain the number-density distribution used in a planetesimal collision rate.
