Fig. 7
Evolution of the semi-major axis as a function of the eccentricity for different systems and τ values. The dotted lines correspond to the theoretical prediction given by expression (83). Solid lines correspond to the orbital evolution obtained using numerical simulations with different τ values. For each system, the simulations exactly match the theoretical prediction.
