...The inner hole in these belts has been inferred in other studies to be caused by the presence of inner planets (e.g., Roques et al. 1994; Wyatt et al. 1999; Wilner et al. 2002; Wyatt 2003; Quillen 2006)....

...Previous studies have not placed constraints on the location of the planet that is causing the forced eccentricity in Fomalhaut’s disc, consequently constraints on the planet’s mass and eccentricity are lacking (Wyatt et al. 1999; Marsh et al. 2005)....

...The time variation of z is ż = zforced + zproper(t) (1) where zforced = b23/2(α) b13/2(α) ep exp(i p) (2) (Murray & Dermott 1999; Wyatt et al. 1999)....

...Secular perturbations in the plane can be described in terms of the complex eccentricity variable, z = e exp(i ), where e is the object’s eccentricity and is its longitude of periastron (e.g. Murray & Dermott 1999; Wyatt et al. 1999)....

...The total mass required to replenish the dust in the disc was estimated by Wyatt & Dent (2002) to be 20–30 M ⊕, however a larger mass is probably required as the velocity dispersion assumed by this study corresponded to h/r ∼ 0.1 and this value exceeds by a factor of 8 that consistent with the edge…...
