摘要:

GAIA以10 uas的高天体测量精度带领我们进入一个新时代。在这样的精度下,天体测量将在探测和表征系外行星方面发挥重要作用。特别地,我们可以通过天体测量来识别平均运动共振(MMR)中的行星对,这制约了行星系的形成和演化。根据观测结果,我们考虑了1:2,2:3,3:4 MMR中的两颗彗星或两颗超级地球系统。我们的模拟表明,第三颗行星的虚警概率(FAP)是非常小的,而真正的两颗行星可以很好地拟合与信噪比(SNR)> 3。共振系统重构的几率与偏心率和共振强度有关。一般来说,当信噪比>= 10时,如果两颗行星的偏心率大于0.01,并且共振很强,那么在MMR中重建行星对的概率>= 80%。当考虑动力学稳定性时,MMR中的木星对比具有相似信噪比的超级地球对更容易重建。当我们在MMR中或附近探测到行星对时,也会计算FAP。1:2 MMR的FAP最大,即,当SNR <= 10时,FAP> 15%。从MMR附近的开普勒行星对外推,假设SNR为3,我们将在30 pc内发现并重建数十个木星对和数百个超级地球对。我们还比较了均匀和不均匀的数据节奏之间的差异,发现行星更好地测量更均匀的相位覆盖。

英文摘要:

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.
