Figure 1:
The transfers capable of producing the present orbits of the Uranian
irregulars. A (B) is the square of the ratio of the satellite's speed just
before (after) the impact to the escape velocity at the satellite's location
just before (after) the impact.
(
)
is the minimum
eccentricity of the orbits before (after) collision. The full-black line A = Bdivides the upper region (the current orbits arise from inner orbits) and the
lower region (the current orbits arise from outer orbits). The value of
tabulated in Table 2 is shown on the dashed line for comparation
with
.
