Evolution of the eccentricity of a Jupiter size planet during and after a close stellar encounter in a pure three-body problem (no disk). The initial mean anomaly M of the planet is sampled with a step of 30° starting from 0°. The eccentricity step Δe depends on the initial value of M which changes the geometrical configuration of the 3 bodies at the stellar encounter.
