Notes. Spearman-rank correlation tests given the main correlations
between the various magnitudes. * Indicates that Eris is excluded.
n: number of data points. ρ: Spearman-rank
correlation without data error bars. : Spearman-rank correlation
accounting for data error bars. p: significance
p-value of the correlation. CL(%): confidence
level defined as (1-p)·100%.
σp: Gaussian-σ
equivalent to the significance p-value (see Appendix B for
details). D: diameter. rh:
heliocentric distance at the time of observation. a: orbital
semi-major axis. e: orbital eccentricity. i:
orbital inclination with respect to the ecliptic plane. q:
perihelion. pV:
V-band geometric albedo. The last line shows that
rh and q are strongly correlated in
our sample.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
