Pure three-body simulations: initial planet location relative to the binary periastron distance, ap,0/rperiastron, versus mean planet eccentricity (top panel), and initial planet location relative to the critical semimajor axis, ap,0/acrit, versus mean planet eccentricity (bottom panel). In the top panel, the color represents the binary eccentricity and the purple dashed lines indicate the equilibrium eccentricity
(Eq. (14) of Mardling 2007) for three binary eccentricities. In the bottom panel, the color represents the binary mass ratio and black dashed line marks the critical semimajor axis of Quarles et al. (2020). Circle markers represent planets that remain in the system, crosses indicate planets that are lost due to either ejection or instability due to a close encounter with the central star.
