Left‐hand panels: maximum number of captured particles for fixed ﹩v_{\mathrm{circ}\,}﹩ and arbitrary ﹩q,\, p﹩ and axis orientation as a result of applying our algorithm to models 11 (top left panel), 13 (middle left panel), and 14 (bottom left panel). Right‐hand panels: maximum number of rebound particles contoured in the p‐q plane for the most likely value of ﹩v_{\mathrm{circ}\,}﹩ identified in the left‐hand panels. The maxima corresponding to the most likely parameters are marked with stars, and the parameters actually used in the simulations are shown with filled squares. The contours are spaced by four particles.
