5.0 3.0 100 45 115–55 4.9–2.1 2.0 nominal case

5.0 3.0 150 45 77–23 3.4–0.95 0.74 larger turn-off
5.0 0.0 100 10 1.5–1.4 0.5–0.4 0.16 worst case (zero q2 and low Mdisk)

Notes. The parameters characterise the SFD of the disk: q1, q2 are differential slopes for the diameters larger/smaller than the elbow diameter D0, Mdisk denotes the total mass of the disk, and nevents is the resulting number of families created during the LHB for a given parent body size DPB. The ranges of nevents are due to variable density ratios ρtarget/ρproject = 1to3/1.
