Notes. Column 1 – initial resonant chain. Column 2 – name of the hydrodynamical simulation. Column 3 – number of N-body simulations ran for the statistical study. Column 4 – mass of the planetesimal disc placed outside of the last planets’ orbit. Columns 5–9 – success rate of the criteria detailed in Sec. 3.2.
