7 CMa system velocity curves

The periodogram analysis reveals two periodic signals of approximately 745 and 980d, associated to planetary companions. A double-Keplerian orbital fit of the data reveals two Jupiter-like planets with minimum masses M_b_sini~1.9Mj and M_c_sini~0.9Mj, orbiting at semi-major axes of a_b_~1.75au and a_c_~2.15au, respectively.

Given the small orbital separation and the large minimum masses of the planets close encounters may occur within the time baseline of the observations, thus, a more accurate N-body dynamical modeling of the available data is performed. The dynamical best-fit solution leads to collision of the planets and we explore the long-term stable configuration of the system in a Bayesian framework, confirming that 13% of the posterior samples are stable for at least 10Myr.
