Figure 1

Panel (a–e) show the energy differences between the collision and non-collision results for the five test cases. The vertical dashed lines in the panels mark the start time of the collisions. The horizontal lines give the numerical error. Panel (f) displays how the difference of the kinetic energy changes with VCME2 for the case of VCME1 = 300 km s−1. The diamonds indicate ΔEkmin which we used to determine the collision nature. Panel (g) shows the dependence of ΔEkmin on VCME2.
