关于凌日行星参数的同质集合

Toward a homogeneous set of transiting planet parameters

Guillermo Torres, Joshua N. Winn, Matthew J. Holman

摘要:

现在已知有40颗或更多的凌日系外行星,寻找它们观测到的特性之间的模式和相关性的时机已经成熟,这可能会对行星形成,结构和演化提供重要的见解。这项任务是困难的广泛不同的方法,已被应用到测量其属性在个别情况下。此外,在许多系统中,我们对行星性质的了解受到母星性质的限制。为了解决这些困难,我们使用统一的方法对23颗凌日行星的数据进行了首次全面分析。我们重新审视最近提出的几个相关性,并发现新的涉及母星的金属丰度。

英文摘要:

With 40 or more transiting exoplanets now known, the time is ripe to seek patterns and correlations among their observed properties, which may give important insights into planet formation, structure, and evolution. This task is made difficult by the widely different methodologies that have been applied to measure their properties in individual cases. Furthermore, in many systems our knowledge of the planet properties is limited by the knowledge of the properties of the parent stars. To address these difficulties we have undertaken the first comprehensive analysis of the data for 23 transiting planets using a uniform methodology. We revisit several of the recently proposed correlations, and find new ones involving the metallicity of the parent stars.
