The study objects of our work were 91 TNO with diameters greater than 200 km. On the other hand, the paper used the data for 1048 and comets with aphelion and perihelion distances Q > 30 AU and q > 0.1AU, respectively, were observed until 2012. Short-perihelion comets (sporadic and concentrated in separate groups) were excluded from the analysis. If some comet split into several parties, we have taken data for only one fragment, which is marked with the letter A. Data for comets are taken from the catalog [4] and the individual Circulars International Astronomical Union, issued in period after 2008. The data for TNO, mostly borrowed from the website [5], as well as the issues of the same circulars.
