双星系统中行星的形成、动力学演化和可居住性

Formation, Dynamical Evolution, and Habitability of Planets in Binary Star Systems

Nader Haghighipour

摘要:

对目前已知的行星宿主恒星的调查表明,大约25%的太阳系外行星系处于双星环境中。这些系统中有几个在适度接近的轨道上有恒星伴星,这意味着对双星系统中及其周围的巨型行星和类地行星的形成和动力学演化的研究现在已经找到了现实的依据。随着最近发射的空间望远镜CoRoT和2009年发射的美国航天局开普勒卫星,这种动态复杂系统的数量将很快增加,其更多的多样性和有趣的动力学特性将很快被发现。因此,深入了解双星系统中行星研究的历史和现状是及时和必要的。本章将为此目的审查双星环境中巨型行星和类地行星的形成模型,并介绍其动力学演化和可居住性的研究结果,以及水和其他挥发性物质向类地天体输送的机制。在这一章中,读者将看到一个全面的,但相对较少技术性的方法来研究双星及其周围的行星,并讨论这些系统和单星周围的行星系的动力学特征之间的差异。

英文摘要:

A survey of currently known planet-hosting stars indicates that approximately 25% of extrasolar planetary systems are within dual-star environments. Several of these systems contain stellar companions on moderately close orbits, implying that studies of the formation and dynamical evolution of giant and terrestrial planets, in and around binary star systems have now found realistic grounds. With the recent launch of the space telescope CoRoT, and the launch of NASA's Kepler satellite in 2009, the number of such dynamically complex systems will soon increase and many more of their diverse and interesting dynamical characteristics will soon be discovered. It is therefore, both timely and necessary, to obtain a deep understanding of the history and current status of research on planets in binary star systems. This chapter will serve this purpose by reviewing the models of the formation of giant and terrestrial planets in dual-star environments, and by presenting results of the studies of their dynamical evolution and habitability, as well as the mechanisms of delivery of water and other volatiles to their terrestrial-class objects. In this chapter, the reader is presented with a comprehensive, yet relatively less technical approach to the study of planets in and around binary stars, and with discussions on the differences between dynamical characteristics of these systems and planetary systems around single stars.
