Invading FFP with a distance parameter and a mass mFFP = mJ. Panel a: temporal evolution of Jupiter’s semi-major axis aJ, given θ = θ* = 249° (see Eq. (13)). The sudden increase of aJ happens just around the timing of the FFP’s perihelion passage, that is t* = 251 yr. Panel b: the migration amplitudes ΔaJ of Jupiter against different values of θ. An upper limit of ΔaJ is defined by the condition that Jupiter’s eccentricity eJ is smaller than its current value of ~0.05.
