摘要:

在过去的3年里,我们一直在监测62 K巨星使用精确的恒星径向速度(RV)测量与2米阿尔弗雷德Jensch望远镜的图林格Landessternwarte陶滕堡(TLS)。通过在中等质量的巨星周围寻找行星来探测行星形成对恒星质量的依赖性。我们提出了高精度RV测量的K1.5 III星42 Dra和K4 III星HD 139357。RV测量的波长参考由放置在光谱仪光路中的碘吸收池提供。我们的测量结果表明,42 Dra的径向速度的时间序列显示出479.1天的周期变化。HD 139357显示RV的周期性变化为1125.7天。开普勒运动是对这些恒星观测到的径向速度变化最有可能的解释。因此,K巨星42 Dra和HD 139357拥有太阳系外行星。

英文摘要:

For the past 3 years we have been monitoring 62 K giant stars using precise stellar radial velocity (RV) measurements with the 2m Alfred Jensch telescope of the Thüringer Landessternwarte Tautenburg (TLS). To probe the dependence of planet formation on stellar mass by finding planets around intermediate-mass giant stars. We present high accuracy RV measurements of the K1.5 III star 42 Dra and the K4 III star HD 139357. The wavelength reference for the RV measurements was provided by an iodine absorption cell placed in the optical path of the spectrograph. Our measurements reveal that the time series of the radial velocity of 42 Dra shows a periodic variation of 479.1 days. HD 139357 shows periodic RV variations of 1125.7 days. Keplerian motion is the most likely explanation for the observed radial velocity variations for these stars. Thus the K giant stars 42 Dra and HD 139357 host extrasolar planets.
