摘要:

我们发现了一颗海王星质量的行星,它在银河系核球中绕着一颗0.8 +- 0.3 M_太阳恒星运行。这颗行星在微透镜事件MOA 2011-BLG-028/OGLE-2011-BLG-0203中表现为透镜星的低质量伴星。光变曲线的分析提供了质量比的测量:(1.2 +- 0.2)x 10^-4,这表明行星的质量为12-60地球质量。透镜系统位于离地球7.3 +- 0.7 kpc处,靠近巴德窗的方向。在微透镜事件发生时,行星的预计分离距离为3.1-5.2 AU。虽然在这一事件的光变曲线中没有检测到“微透镜视差”效应,阻止了实际的质量测量,但通过OGLE-III图像上跨越8年的源星自行测量,以及看到的少量混合光,质量和距离估计的不确定性缩小了,证明了主星不可能太亮和太大。我们还讨论了未检测到的视差和轨道运动的影响纳入模型,以及它们对最终的物理参数估计的影响。

英文摘要:

We present the discovery of a Neptune-mass planet orbiting a 0.8 +- 0.3 M_Sun star in the Galactic bulge. The planet manifested itself during the microlensing event MOA 2011-BLG-028/OGLE-2011-BLG-0203 as a low-mass companion to the lens star. The analysis of the light curve provides the measurement of the mass ratio: (1.2 +- 0.2) x 10^-4, which indicates the mass of the planet to be 12-60 Earth masses. The lensing system is located at 7.3 +- 0.7 kpc away from the Earth near the direction to Baade's Window. The projected separation of the planet, at the time of the microlensing event, was 3.1-5.2 AU. Although the "microlens parallax" effect is not detected in the light curve of this event, preventing the actual mass measurement, the uncertainties of mass and distance estimation are narrowed by the measurement of the source star proper motion on the OGLE-III images spanning eight years, and by the low amount of blended light seen, proving that the host star cannot be too bright and massive. We also discuss the inclusion of undetected parallax and orbital motion effects into the models, and their influence onto the final physical parameters estimates.
