Time is given in units GM=c=1, total number of satellites is $N=\int{}n_t(a)\,{\rm d}{a}$. Conversion of time t to physical units is achieved by $t_{\rm {}phys}\mbox{[yr]}=1.6\times10^{-5}M_8t$, while for distances $a_{\rm {}phys}\mbox{[cm]}=1.5\times10^{13}M_8a$.

The values of n_t(a) slopes are further explained in Sect. 3.3. We recall that these slopes refer to the motion in the disc. The overall n_t(a) profiles can be thus different in the region where the whole sample is dominated by those satellites moving along inclined trajectories outside the disc.

The expected final value of $q_{{\rm f}}$ for the case (v) coincides with $q_4=-\mbox{$\,^{2}/_{3}$ }$, as can be seen in the corresponding section (gap) of Table 1.
