Contours of the inner semi-major axis versus 1 − e for various outcomes at 0.1 pc from the SMBH. Upper row, from the left, initial distribution in black (a), merged binaries in orange (b), and evaporated binaries in green (c). Bottom row, from the left, the intact population (after 10 Gyr) in red (d), the evolved population in blue (e), and ejected binaries in magenta (f). For panels (b), (c), and (d), the distribution refers to the binary’s properties the moment just before the final outcome.
