Notes. Shown are the p-value probabilities for the null hypothesis that the strands and global curves samples for new, intermediate, and old comets are drawn from the same parent populations. Pairwise comparisons (rows) were performed using DKS on strand parameters kr and mr, and global curve parameters k1 and m1 (columns). Strand p-values are averages of 100 debiased strand samples. Lower p-values indicate stronger evidence against the null hypothesis, suggesting differences between Oort groups. Pre- and post-perihelion data were considered separately.
