REBOUND simulations showing the evolution of the orbital elements of TOI 560 b (blue) and c (red). The semimajor axis evolution is stable (not shown), and the planets are assumed coplanar so there is no inclination variation (not shown). The first panel shows the significant temporal evolution of the eccentricities for TOI 560 b and c, consistent with the moderate eccentricity we detect for TOI 560 b. The second panel shows the longitudes of periastron (in degrees) on the vertical axes as a function of time on the horizontal axes, showing significant dynamical precession. The bottom panel shows the difference in the longitudes of periastron between the two planets, showing that the system exhibits a libration in the longitudes of periastron. Only the first 20,000 yr of orbital evolution are shown, but the system behaves similarly for the duration of the 10 Myr simulation.
