Maps showing reduction factor fred, defined by Eq. (16), as a function of planet mass and orbital distance. The quantity fred quantifies how much the classical type I migration torque (sum of the Lindblad and static corotation torques) is reduced by the dynamical corotation torque: the latter is negligible where fred → 1 and strong where fred ≪ 1. Maps are obtained for four disc models that differ by the choice of the alpha turbulent viscosity (αvis) and the slope of the density profile (–β). Contour lines are plotted for fred ∈ [0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9] for better visualisation. The solid white line marks the transition where τlib/2 = rvis (see text). The dashed black line marks the feedback mass (see text). Regions where the planet mass exceeds the thermal mass (equivalent to qP/h3(rP) > 1) are excluded as we expect substantial gap opening to occur in low-viscosity discs there.
