Fig. 1.
Orbital decay rate 
displayed as a function of the orbital separation a for different initial eccentricities (e0 = 0.01 − 0.9). The orbital and disc parameters are set to the fiducial values stated in Sect. 4.1. The black circles indicate the transition from the disc-driven to the GW-driven regime of the evolution channel.
