摘要:

热彗星受到来自主星的强烈辐射,因此它们会蒸发。它们还可以通过潮汐和磁场与母星相互作用。这两种现象对这些系统的演化都有很强的影响。本文介绍了HST上的宇宙起源摄谱仪(COS)对HD~189733的时间分辨光谱观测。这颗恒星在连续五个HST轨道上被观测到,从行星的第二次凌日开始($ϕ$ ~0.50-0.63)。两个主要情节的变化的离子线的Si,C,N和O的检测,与线通量的增加。Si IV系显示最高程度的可变性。FUV的变化是与行星运动同步的增强活动的标志,发生在行星离开之后,正如已经在X射线中观察到的三次。在MHD模拟的支持下,我们提出了以下解释:从行星蒸发的气体流正在积极地且几乎稳定地吸积到恒星表面上,在亚行星点之前的$70-90°$处撞击。

英文摘要:

Hot Jupiters are subject to strong irradiation from the host stars and, as a consequence, they do evaporate. They can also interact with the parent stars by means of tides and magnetic fields. Both phenomena have strong implications for the evolution of these systems. Here we present time resolved spectroscopy of HD~189733 observed with the Cosmic Origin Spectrograph (COS) on board to HST. The star has been observed during five consecutive HST orbits, starting at a secondary transit of the planet ($ϕ$ ~0.50-0.63). Two main episodes of variability of ion lines of Si, C, N and O are detected, with an increase of line fluxes. Si IV lines show the highest degree of variability. The FUV variability is a signature of enhanced activity in phase with the planet motion, occurring after the planet egress, as already observed three times in X-rays. With the support of MHD simulations, we propose the following interpretation: a stream of gas evaporating from the planet is actively and almost steadily accreting onto the stellar surface, impacting at $70-90°$ ahead of the sub-planetary point.
