Distribution of the final eccentricity and semimajor axis of the secondary binary with respect to the central star mA, after the scattering event. In the left-hand plots (type II) the secondary star is still mB, while in the right-hand plots it is mC. Brown squares show all runs, while those that preserved the planetary orbit with ep < 0.1 are superimposed in black. The orange lines show level curves of typical impact velocities (see text for details).
