Scattered disc
The scattered disc (or scattered disk ) is a distant circumstellar disc in the Solar System that is sparsely populated by icy small solar system bodies , which are a subset of the broader family of trans-Neptunian objects . The scattered-disc objects (SDOs) have orbital eccentricities ranging as high as 0.8, inclinations as high as 40°, and perihelia greater than 30 astronomical units (4.5 × 10 9 km; 2.8 × 10 9 mi). These extreme orbits are thought to be the result of gravitational "scattering" by the gas giants , and the objects continue to be subject to perturbation by the planet Neptune .

These extreme orbits are believed to be the result of gravitational "scattering" by the gas giants , and the objects continue to be subject to perturbation by the planet Neptune . While the nearest distance to the Sun approached by scattered objects is about 30–35 AU, their orbits can extend well beyond 100 AU. This makes scattered objects "among the most distant and cold objects in the Solar System". [1] The innermost portion of the scattered disc overlaps with a torus -shaped region of orbiting objects traditionally called the Kuiper belt , [2] but its outer limits reach much farther away from the Sun and farther above and below the ecliptic than the belt proper.
