Results from our Monte Carlo simulation for HR 8799b. One-dimensional PDFs from all possible solutions are shown for each of the seven free parameters. The solid lines represent the solutions that are unweighted by the likelihood of catching the planet in its current phase, while the dashed line shows solutions weighted by this likelihood. Low-eccentricity solutions are favored, as is an inclination of 38° ± 7°.
