Fig. 10

Left: semi-major axis eccentricity distribution of planets before (open circle) and after (filled circle) tidal evolution. Different colours correspond to the stellar metallicity. Highly eccentric planets tend to belong to higher metallicity discs. Right: the corresponding eccentricity-inclination distribution. However, the colour does not represent the metallicity, but the final semi-major axis. Closer in planets tend to have either a low eccentricity and a range of inclinations, or a moderate eccentricity with a low inclination.
