Dynamical relaxation and the orbits of low-mass extrasolar planets
We consider the evolution of a system containing a population of massive planets formed rapidly through a fragmentation process occurring on a scale on the order of 100 au and a lower mass planet that assembles in a disc on a much longer timescale. During the formation phase, the inner planet is kep...
