Distribution of high- and low-α Splash populations on the Zmax versus eccentricity space for the Isolated Clumpy (top) and the Clumpy+merger (bottom panel) models. Gray points represent all particles in the simulation, and the gray contours indicate the higher-density region of the low-α/thin disk. The high-α Splash is shown in orange points, while the low-α Splash is shown in green points.
