环联行星的形成:开普勒-34的N体模拟

Forming Circumbinary Planets: N-body Simulations of Kepler-34

摘要:

对轨道非常靠近中心恒星的环联星行星的观测表明,行星形成可能发生在非常恶劣的环境中,在那里,来自联星的引力对原始原行星盘的吸引力应该非常强。离心率振荡造成的碰撞速度和轨道交叉的提高,是导致高能、潜在破坏性碰撞的主要因素,这些碰撞抑制了有希望的行星的生长。在这项工作中,我们进行高分辨率,粒子间引力使N体模拟,调查在开普勒-34系统的星子生长的可行性。我们改进了以前的工作,包括星子盘自引力和广泛的碰撞模型,以准确地处理星际相互作用。我们发现,超级灾难性的侵蚀事件是占主导地位的机制,包括开普勒-34(AB)b的轨道半径,使原位生长不太可能。更有可能的是Kepler-34(AB)b来自1.5AU以外的区域。根据我们对开普勒-34所做的结论,似乎所有目前已知的环联星行星也都从它们的形成位置显著迁移,开普勒-47(AB)c可能是个例外。

英文摘要:

Observations of circumbinary planets orbiting very close to the central stars have shown that planet formation may occur in a very hostile environment, where the gravitational pull from the binary should be very strong on the primordial protoplanetary disk. Elevated impact velocities and orbit crossings from eccentricity oscillations are the primary contributors towards high energy, potentially destructive collisions that inhibit the growth of aspiring planets. In this work, we conduct high resolution, inter-particle gravity enabled N-body simulations to investigate the feasibility of planetesimal growth in the Kepler-34 system. We improve upon previous work by including planetesimal disk self-gravity and an extensive collision model to accurately handle inter-planetesimal interactions. We find that super-catastrophic erosion events are the dominant mechanism up to and including the orbital radius of Kepler-34(AB)b, making in-situ growth unlikely. It is more plausible that Kepler-34(AB)b migrated from a region beyond 1.5 AU. Based on the conclusions that we have made for Kepler-34 it seems likely that all of the currently known circumbinary planets have also migrated significantly from their formation location with the possible exception of Kepler-47(AB)c.
