Notes. The symbols indicate whether a criterion is fulfilled (✓) or not (✗), unless mentioned otherwise.

a

Dust-to-ice ratio.

b

Growth is drift limited (D), bouncing dominated (B), or fragmentation limited (F).

c

Compression is faster than radial drift of bouncing aggregates.

d

Aggregates reach Stmin.

e

Aggregates potentially trigger streaming instability, if (c) and (d) are fulfilled and growth is not drift limited.

*

Without bouncing, aggregates easily grow to Stmin, but further growth is limited by fragmentation.
