Distributions of α = a/aR, where aR is the Roche limit, for well-determined circular orbits (solid line) and both circular orbits and undetermined eccentricities (dashed line). The impact of transit probability on the distribution for α ≤ 5 appears to be practically negligible (see text for more details).
