We performed high-resolution, 2D, locally isothermal hydrodynamical simulations of planets with varying masses on fixed orbits in discs with varying aspect ratios and viscosities. In this work, we aim to obtain a simple formula to model eccentricity damping of the type-I regime in low-viscosity discs, where even small planets of a few to a few tens of Earth masses may start opening partial gaps in the gas surface density around their orbit. It is well known that partial and deep gap opening depends on a disc’s viscosity however, damping formulas for orbital eccentricities have only been derived at high viscosities, ignoring partial gap opening.Īims.
