Table 5
Initial and steady-state power law indices for the cumulative size distribution of JFCs.
| Initial index | Current index | |
| erosion | Di Sisto | |

||
| −1.0 | −0.88 | −1.44 |
| −1.5 | −1.31 | −1.79 |
| −2.0 | −1.75 | −2.08 |
| −2.5 | −2.19 | −2.26 |
| −3.0 | −2.65 | −2.33 |
| −3.5 | −3.11 | −2.32 |
| −4.0 | −3.58 | −2.28 |
Notes. The initial index (left column) holds at the moment the comets reach q < 3.9 au. The steady-state indices refer to JFCs with q < 2.5 au with physical evolution according to the erosion model (middle column) or the Di Sisto model (right column).
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.
