地球水起源的复合模型

A Compound model for the origin of Earth's water

A. Izidoro, K. de Souza Torres, O. C. Winter, N. Haghighipour

摘要:

关于太阳系形成的最重要的争论主题之一是地球水的起源。彗星一直被认为是最有可能向地球输送水的来源。然而,元素和同位素的论点表明,这些物体的贡献非常小。其他来源也被提出,其中,水蒸气局部吸附在原始星云的尘埃颗粒上,并通过星子和行星胚胎输送变得更加突出。然而,没有一个单一的水源能为地球上的水提供一个令人满意的解释。有鉴于此,我们利用数值模拟的方法,建立了一个综合了主要内生和外生理论的复合模型,并研究了它们对类地行星形成和水输送的影响。彗星也被认为是在最终的分析,因为它很可能至少有一些地球的水有彗星的起源。我们分析了我们的结果,比较两种不同的水分布模型,并补充我们的研究使用D/H比,找到可能的相对贡献,从每个来源,专注于行星形成的宜居带。我们发现,复合模型在类地行星的水输送量和时间上表现出更大的优势。

英文摘要:

One of the most important subjects of debate in the formation of the solar system is the origin of Earth's water. Comets have long been considered as the most likely source of the delivery of water to Earth. However, elemental and isotopic arguments suggest a very small contribution from these objects. Other sources have also been proposed, among which, local adsorption of water vapor onto dust grains in the primordial nebula and delivery through planetesimals and planetary embryos have become more prominent. However, no sole source of water provides a satisfactory explanation for Earth's water as a whole. In view of that, using numerical simulations, we have developed a compound model incorporating both the principal endogenous and exogenous theories, and investigating their implications for terrestrial planet formation and water-delivery. Comets are also considered in the final analysis, as it is likely that at least some of Earth's water has cometary origin. We analyze our results comparing two different water distribution models, and complement our study using D/H ratio, finding possible relative contributions from each source, focusing on planets formed in the habitable zone. We find that the compound model play an important role by showing more advantage in the amount and time of water-delivery in Earth-like planets.
