GAIA leads us to step into a new era with a high astrometry precision of 10 uas. Under such a precision, astrometry will play important roles in detecting and characterizing exoplanets. Specially, we can identify planet pairs in mean motion resonances(MMRs) via astrometry, which constrains the formation and evolution of planetary systems. In accordance with observations, we consider two Jupiters or two super-Earths systems in 1:2, 2:3 and 3:4 MMRs. Our simulations show the false alarm probabilities(FAPs) of a third planet are extremely small while the real two planets can be good fitted with signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)> 3. The probability of reconstructing a resonant system is related with the eccentricities and resonance intensity. Generally, when SNR >= 10, if eccentricities of both planets are larger than 0.01 and the resonance is quite strong, the probabilities to reconstruct the planet pair in MMRs >= 80%. Jupiter pairs in MMRs are reconstructed more easily than super-Earth pairs with similar SNR when we consider the dynamical stability. FAPs are also calculated when we detect planet pairs in or near MMRs. FAPs for 1:2 MMR are largest, i.e., FAPs > 15% when SNR <= 10. Extrapolating from the Kepler planet pairs near MMRs and assuming SNR to be 3, we will discover and reconstruct a few tens of Jupiter pairs and hundreds of super-Earth pairs in 2:3 and 1:2 MMRs within 30 pc. We also compare the differences between even and uneven data cadence and find that planets are better measured with more uniform phase coverage.

Observational Constraints on Planet Nine: Astrometry of Pluto and Other Trans-Neptunian Objects
我们使用冥王星和其他TNO的天体测量来限制Batygin和Brown(2016)假设的可能的额外行星(行星九)的天空位置,距离和质量。我们发现,在广阔的天空区域,包含一个巨大的,遥远的行星降低了适合的观测。然而,在其他地区,通过增加这样一颗行星,拟合得到了显著改善。我们的最佳拟合表明,一颗行星的质量比Batygin和Brown(2016)基于遥远的海王星外天体的轨道分布(或Fienga et al.(2016)基于卡西尼飞船测量的距离)所认为的更大或更近。倾向于更大和更近的扰动行星的趋势是由冥王星天体测量的残差驱动的,使用现代恒星目录(Buie和Folkner 2015)从照相板重新测量,这表明在20年的时间里,在decliter中有一个明显的趋势,这驱动了对大扰动的偏好。虽然这种趋势可能是观测中未知来源的系统误差的结果,但一个可能的解决方案是,这种deconstructive趋势可能是由于来自一个天体的扰动,除了第九行星之外,它更接近冥王星,但质量比第九行星小。

Strong Constraints to the Putative Planet Candidate around VB 10 using Doppler spectroscopy
我们提出了新的径向速度测量的超冷矮VB 10,这是最近宣布举办一个巨大的行星探测天体测量。新的观测结果是使用光学光谱仪(MIKE/麦哲伦和ESPaDOns/CHFT)获得的,覆盖了报告的270天的63%。我们应用最小二乘周期图来识别最重要的信号,并评估其相应的虚警概率。我们表明,这种方法是适当的推广到天体测量数据,因为(1)它减轻了轨道参数与视差和自行的耦合,(2)它允许直接推广到包括非线性开普勒参数的天体测量和径向速度数据的组合拟合。事实上,我们对天体测量的分析揭示了270天的周期和50天的更强信号。我们估计的不确定性的参数使用马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗方法。新多普勒测量的标称精度约为150 s $^{-1}$,而其标准偏差为250 ms $^{-1}$。然而,最佳拟合解的RMS仍为200 ms $^{-1}$,表明变异性的过度是由于不受控制的系统误差,而不是天体测量中检测到的候选同伴。虽然新的数据本身不能排除候选者的存在,但当与已公布的径向速度测量相结合时,最佳解的虚警概率增长到不可接受的水平,强烈表明观察到的天体测量摆动不是由于看不见的伴星。

利用甚长基线射电天文台阵(VLBA)对年轻的超冷矮双星LSPM J1314+ 1320 AB进行了多历元射电天体测量观测。射电辐射来自第二颗恒星。结合VLBA数据和凯克近红外自适应光学观测的两个组成部分,视差($π_{\rm abs}=57.975\pm0.045$ mas,对应于$d=17.249\pm0.013$ pc的距离),自行($μ_{\rm αcos δ}=-247.99\pm0.10$ mas yr $^{-1}$,$μ_δ=-183.58\pm0.22$ mas yr $^{-1}$),和轨道运动的完整的天体测量拟合得到。尽管这两颗恒星的质量在$\pm2$ %内几乎相同,但次级恒星的射电辐射超过了初级恒星的$\gtrsim$ 30倍,这表明恒星自转历史的差异,这可能导致不同的磁场配置。或者,发射可以是各向异性的,并向我们发射次级辐射,而不是初级辐射。仅使用反射运动,我们排除了质量为0.7至10 $M_{\rm jup}$、轨道周期分别为600至10天的行星。此外,我们使用完整的轨道解决方案的二进制导出的上限为0.23 AU的半长轴稳定的行星轨道在这个系统中。这些限制涵盖了一个参数空间,这是无法访问的,并补充,近红外径向速度调查的超冷矮星。我们的绝对天体测量将构成盖亚天体测量校准的重要测试。
