Capture rate and capture probability as a function of particles' random velocities. and ε t = 0.9. ε n = 0.5 in (a) and (b), while the velocity-dependent coefficient of restitution obtained by Bridges et al. (1984) was used in (c) and (d). The solid lines show the numerical results of three-body orbital integration while the dashed lines in (b) show the analytic results for and 0.1.
