来自系外行星凌日的礼物

Gifts from Exoplanetary Transits

Norio Narita

摘要:

凌日系外行星的发现使我们能够进行许多有趣的研究。凌日测光揭示了凌日行星的半径和轨道倾角,从而我们可以通过径向速度测量的组合信息来了解各个行星的真实质量和密度。此外,对凌日行星的后续观测,如二次日食、凌日时间变化、透射光谱和罗斯特-麦克劳克林效应,为我们提供了它们的昼面温度、系统中看不见的天体、行星大气和行星轨道稳定性等信息。这些观测信息,将使我们更好地了解太阳系外行星,只有过境行星。在这里,我简要总结了我们可以从凌日行星中学到什么,并介绍了以前的研究。

英文摘要:

The discovery of transiting extrasolar planets has enabled us a number of interesting stduies. Transit photometry reveals the radius and the orbital inclination of transiting planets, and thereby we can learn the true mass and the density of respective planets by the combined information of radial velocity measurements. In addition, follow-up observations of transiting planets such as secondary eclipse, transit timing variations, transmission spectroscopy, and the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect provide us information of their dayside temperature, unseen bodies in systems, planetary atmospheres, and obliquity of planetary orbits. Such observational information, which will provide us a greater understanding of extrasolar planets, is available only for transiting planets. Here I briefly summarize what we can learn from transiting planets and introduce previous studies.
