Scientific paper

The TNO region can be inserted in the global frame of the dynamical evolution of the giant planets, as described by the Nice model (Levison et al. 2008). We have developed ALICANDEP, a collisional evolution package that includes statistical elimination of objects by dynamical effects within the frame of a disc migrating and gradually dynamically exciting, as well as the dynamical migration of objects between regions. The possibility to distinguish between dynamically cold and hot bodies in the Inner and Main Classical Belt and to keep track of primordial bodies in those regions has been included in the model. ALICANDEP manages to match the current observables under the dynamical conditions of the Nice model. This allows to constrain the fragmentation physics and some of the initial conditions of the disk.
