行星9对遥远TNO轨道的影响:低近日点行星的情况

The Influence of Planet 9 on the Orbits of Distant TNOs: The Case for a Low Perihelion Planet

Jessica Cáceres, Rodney Gomes

摘要:

外太阳系中存在另一颗行星的假设,由于在遥远的海王星外天体的角轨道要素中发现的局限性而获得了新的支持。外部扰动提出的轨道参数建议半长轴500和1000 AU之间,近日点距离200和400 AU之间的质量为10和20 $M_{\oplus}$。在本文中,我们研究的可能性,较低的近日点距离的额外的行星可能会导致角约束的人口中观察到的物体的半长轴大于250天文单位和近日点距离高于40天文单位。我们进行了数值积分的一组粒子受到已知的行星和假定的摄动的影响,在太阳系的年龄,并比较我们的输出与观察到的人口通过统计分析。我们的研究表明,较低的近日点距离外行星通常会导致更多的实质性的禁闭比较高的,同时保留经典柯伊伯带以及与近日点距离高于42天文单位的分离的数量的比例散射对象的范围内的半长轴从100天文单位到200天文单位。

英文摘要:

The hypothesis of an additional planet in the outer Solar System has gained new support as a result of the confinement noted in the angular orbital elements of distant trans-Neptunian objects. Orbital parameters proposed for the external perturber suggest semimajor axes between 500 and 1000 au, perihelion distances between 200 and 400 au for masses between 10 and 20 $M_{\oplus}$. In this paper we study the possibility that lower perihelion distances for the additional planet can lead to angular confinements as observed in the population of objects with semimajor axes greater than 250 au and perihelion distances higher than 40 au. We performed numerical integrations of a set of particles subjected to the influence of the known planets and the putative perturber during the age of the Solar System and compared our outputs with the observed population through a statistical analysis. Our investigations showed that lower perihelion distances from the outer planet usually lead to more substantial confinements than higher ones, while retaining the Classical Kuiper Belt as well as the ratio of the number of detached with perihelion distances higher than 42 au to scattering objects in the range of semimajor axes from 100 au to 200 au.
