Plots of capture probability averaged over the Rayleigh distribution of particles' eccentricities and inclinations. ε n = 0.5 in (a) and (b), ε n = 0.1 in (c) and (d), and the velocity-dependent coefficient of restitution was used in (e) and (f) (ε t = 0.9 and ω z = 1). The dashed line in (a) represents the analytic result for calculated from Equations (17) and (18).
