Notes. From left to right are shown the semi-major axis as of the satellites, m + 1:m ER which they are involved in, their minimum radius Rs, and which edge they confine. The satellites that can simultaneously confine a C1R edge and a C2R edge are in italics. (1)This configuration is shown by the green dot in Fig. 7 (top panel). (2)This configuration is shown by the green dot in Fig. 7 (bottom panel). (3)This configuration is shown by the blue dot in Fig. 7 (top panel). (4)This configuration is shown by the blue dot in Figs. 7 (middle and bottom panels)
