摘要:

HR8799是迄今为止唯一直接成像的多系外行星系统。如果能更好地了解其轨道结构,将有助于深入了解宽轨道行星系的形成和动态演变。本文介绍了NACO在VLT获得的HR8799系统的L '波段观测,补充了对行星HR8799b、c和d的天体测量监测。我们研究了两个简单的情况下,(i)一个圆形的轨道和(ii)一个正面的轨道适合的天体测量数据的HR8799d在总时间基线为2年。结果表明,HR8799d的轨道相对于我们的视线是倾斜的,并建议轨道是轻微偏心或不共面的外行星和碎片盘。

英文摘要:

HR8799 is so far the only directly imaged multiple exoplanet system. The orbital configuration would, if better known, provide valuable insight into the formation and dynamical evolution of wide-orbit planetary systems. We present L'-band observations of the HR8799 system obtained with NACO at VLT, adding to the astrometric monitoring of the planets HR8799b, c and d. We investigate how well the two simple cases of (i) a circular orbit and (ii) a face-on orbit fit the astrometric data for HR8799d over a total time baseline of ~2 years. The results indicate that the orbit of HR8799d is inclined with respect to our line of sight, and suggest that the orbit is slightly eccentric or non-coplanar with the outer planets and debris disk.
