| Abstract: |
We investigate the dynamical stability of planetary systems in the CoRoT discovery space. The aim was to check whether they are stable within the habitable zone around M main-sequence stars. We place the first fictitious planet at a distance of 0.01 AU from its host-star and fill-up the CoRoT discovery space with planets so that they are tightly packed according to the Hill criterion supplying the initial minimum relative distances between the fictitious planets. The habitable zone of M-stars covers the region between 0.02 - 0.5 AU which is partly inside the CoRoT discovery space. Additionally we include a gas giant which perturbs the close-in planets, and compare the different results. |
