附近的一颗年轻的M型矮星,有一个宽的,可能是行星质量的伴星

A nearby young M dwarf with a wide, possibly planetary-mass companion

Niall R Deacon, Joshua E Schlieder, Simon J Murphy

摘要:

我们提出了两个以前已知的年轻物体在太阳附近作为一个可能的非常广泛的二进制的识别。TYC 9486-927-1,一颗活跃的、快速旋转的早M矮星,以及2 MASS J21265040-8140293,一颗低重力的L3矮星,先前被确认为$\sim$ 4500万年前的杜鹃花钟表协会(TucHor)的候选成员。更新的L3次级自行测量,以及在已知的附近年轻恒星的背景下对这对运动学的详细分析,揭示了它们有共同的自行,并且可能是绑定的。新的观测和分析揭示了主要的Li 6708~(18)吸收与比TucHor年轻但比$\sim$ 1000万年TW水螅星协更老的M矮星相一致,产生的年龄范围为1000 - 4500万年。修正的运动学分析表明,这对天体的空间运动和位置更接近于$\sim$ 2400万年前的$β$风景如画的移动群,但并不完全一致。这一修订后的1000万~ 4500万年年龄范围得出次级星系的质量范围为11.6 ~ 15 M $_J$。因此,2 MASS J21265040- 8140293短可能是已知轨道最宽的行星质量天体($>$ 4500天文单位),其估计质量、年龄、光谱型和$T_{eff}$与已被充分研究的行星$β$风景如画b相似。由于它们的极端分离和年轻,这对低质量的双星为非常广泛的双星形成和演化提供了一个有趣的案例研究。

英文摘要:

We present the identification of two previously known young objects in the solar neighbourhood as a likely very wide binary. TYC 9486-927-1, an active, rapidly rotating early-M dwarf, and 2MASS J21265040-8140293, a low-gravity L3 dwarf previously identified as candidate members of the $\sim$45 Myr old Tucana Horologium association (TucHor). An updated proper motion measurement of the L3 secondary, and a detailed analysis of the pair's kinematics in the context of known nearby, young stars, reveals that they share common proper motion and are likely bound. New observations and analyses reveal the primary exhibits Li 6708~Å~absorption consistent with M dwarfs younger than TucHor but older than the $\sim$10 Myr TW Hydra association yielding an age range of 10-45 Myr. A revised kinematic analysis suggests the space motions and positions of the pair are closer to, but not entirely in agreement with, the $\sim$24 Myr old $β$ Pictoris moving group. This revised 10-45 Myr age range yields a mass range of 11.6--15 M$_J$ for the secondary. It is thus likely 2MASS J21265040-8140293short is the widest orbit planetary mass object known ($>$4500AU) and its estimated mass, age, spectral type, and $T_{eff}$ are similar to the well-studied planet $β$ Pictoris b. Because of their extreme separation and youth, this low-mass pair provide an interesting case study for very wide binary formation and evolution.
