摘要:

我们证明,微透镜可以用于检测双星系统中的行星。这是可能的,因为在行星双星系统的几何结构中,行星绕其中一颗双星运行,而另一颗双星位于很远的距离,行星和二级伴星都在行星所在的双星周围的一个共同区域产生扰动,因此行星和双星伴星的特征可以在高放大率透镜事件的光变曲线中检测到。我们发现,识别行星的双星系统是优化时,次级是位于一定范围内,这取决于行星的类型。所提出的方法可以探测质量低至木星质量十分之一的行星,其距离小于100 AU。这些行星质量和双星分离的范围是其他方法所不能涵盖的,因此微透镜将能够使行星双星样本更丰富。

英文摘要:

We demonstrate that microlensing can be used for detecting planets in binary stellar systems. This is possible because in the geometry of planetary binary systems where the planet orbits one of the binary component and the other binary star is located at a large distance, both planet and secondary companion produce perturbations at a common region around the planet-hosting binary star and thus the signatures of both planet and binary companion can be detected in the light curves of high-magnification lensing events. We find that identifying planets in binary systems is optimized when the secondary is located in a certain range which depends on the type of the planet. The proposed method can detect planets with masses down to one tenth of the Jupiter mass in binaries with separations <~ 100 AU. These ranges of planet mass and binary separation are not covered by other methods and thus microlensing would be able to make the planetary binary sample richer.
