具有多项式边缘变暗恒星的解析行星Transit光变曲线和导数

Analytic Planetary Transit Light Curves and Derivatives for Stars with Polynomial Limb Darkening

Eric Agol, Rodrigo Luger, Daniel Foreman-Mackey

摘要:

我们推导出分析,封闭形式的解决方案的行星过境恒星的临边变暗的配置文件,这是一个多项式函数的恒星海拔,到任意整数阶的光变曲线。我们提供了改进的解析表达式的均匀,线性和二次的肢体变暗的情况下,以及新的表达更高阶整数功率的肢体变暗。这些公式在预期的使用范围内保持数值稳定。此外,我们提出的瞬时通量的偏导数的半径比,碰撞参量,和临边昏暗系数的解析公式。这些表达式是快速评估,并比较相当有利的速度和准确性,现有的过境轻曲线代码。我们还使用这些表达式来数值计算的一阶偏导数的绝对时间平均的过境光变曲线相对于所有的模型参数。另一个应用是模拟食双星或食多恒星系统的情况下,恒星可能被视为球对称。我们提供了用C++,Python,IDL和Julia实现这些公式的代码,以及测试和使用示例。

英文摘要:

We derive analytic, closed-form solutions for the light curve of a planet transiting a star with a limb darkening profile which is a polynomial function of the stellar elevation, up to arbitrary integer order. We provide improved analytic expressions for the uniform, linear, and quadratic limb-darkened cases, as well as novel expressions for higher order integer powers of limb darkening. The formulae are crafted to be numerically stable over the expected range of usage. We additionally present analytic formulae for the partial derivatives of instantaneous flux with respect to the radius ratio, impact parameter, and limb darkening coefficients. These expressions are rapid to evaluate, and compare quite favorably in speed and accuracy to existing transit light curve codes. We also use these expressions to numerically compute the first partial derivatives of exposure-time averaged transit light curves with respect to all model parameters. An additional application is modeling eclipsing binary or eclipsing multiple star systems in cases where the stars may be treated as spherically symmetric. We provide code which implements these formulae in C++, Python, IDL, and Julia, with tests and examples of usage.
