摘要:

我们提出了一个详细的动力学分析的轨道稳定性的两个circumbinary行星最近提出的轨道演变的食双星系统NSVS 14256825。正如最近提出的其他环双星行星系通过中央双星之间的互食时间检测到的情况一样,这些行星经不起动力学的仔细检查。这两颗行星的轨道在不到一千年的时间尺度上是非常不稳定的,无论行星轨道之间的相互倾斜如何。对于行星轨道共面的情况,观察到一个中等稳定的小区域,其轨道受到行星轨道之间相互2:1平均运动共振的影响而受到一定程度的保护。然而,即使在这个稳定的区域,测试的系统通常也只能存活100万年的时间尺度,远远短于系统的年龄。我们的研究结果表明,如果在NSVS 14256825系统中有行星,它们必须在与发现工作中提出的轨道截然不同的轨道上移动。显然迫切需要进行更多的观测,以便限制所建议的轨道体的性质。

英文摘要:

We present a detailed dynamical analysis of the orbital stability of the two circumbinary planets recently proposed to orbit the evolved eclipsing binary star system NSVS 14256825. As is the case for other recently proposed circumbinary planetary systems detected through the timing of mutual eclipses between the central binary stars, the proposed planets do not stand up to dynamical scrutiny. The proposed orbits for the two planets are extremely unstable on timescales of less than a thousand years, regardless of the mutual inclination between the planetary orbits. For the scenario where the planetary orbits are coplanar, a small region of moderate stability was observed, featuring orbits that were somewhat protected from destabilisation by the influence of mutual 2:1 mean-motion resonance between the orbits of the planets. Even in this stable region, however, the systems tested typically only survived on timescales of order 1 million years, far shorter than the age of the system. Our results suggest that, if there are planets in the NSVS 14256825 system, they must move on orbits dramatically different to those proposed in the discovery work. More observations are clearly critically required in order to constrain the nature of the suggested orbital bodies.
