| Abstract: |
The remarkably low eccentricity orbits of the planets in our Solar System suggest that the Sun was born in a low density environment. We have used GRAPE-6 N-body simulations to follow the orbital evolution of Earth-Jupiter and Jupiter-Neptune systems in open star clusters, with 10% to 30% binaries, from birth to cluster dissolution. Most systems are ejected with at most small eccentricity, but moderately hot Jupiters in very eccentric orbits are occasionally created. |
