摘要:

揭示形成行星系结构的机制对于我们理解它们的形成和演化至关重要。在这方面,最近有人提出,恒星集群可能是塑造系外行星轨道结构的关键。这项工作的主要目标是探索塑造行星轨道的因素。我们使用了一个相对年轻的FGK矮星与RV检测行星的均匀样本,并测试了他们的关联相空间(位置-速度)超密度(“集群”恒星)和低密度(“场”恒星)影响行星的轨道周期的假设。当控制的主恒星的属性,对样本的52颗行星围绕“集群”的恒星和15颗行星围绕“场”的恒星,我们发现没有显着差异的周期分布的行星围绕这两个人口的恒星。通过考虑一个扩展的样本,73颗行星围绕“集群”恒星和25颗行星围绕“场”恒星,行星周期分布出现了显着的差异。然而,与恒星低密度相关的宿主似乎比它们的“星团”对应物要古老得多。这并不能让我们得出结论,行星结构是否与年龄,环境或两者有关。我们进一步研究了围绕“星团”恒星运行的行星样本,以研究在类似环境中形成行星轨道的机制。我们无法确定一个参数,可以明确地负责大质量行星的轨道结构,也许,这表明了问题的复杂性。结论.在星团和高密度环境中增加行星数量将有助于建立大规模和无偏见的样本,从而更好地了解塑造行星轨道的主导过程。

英文摘要:

Revealing the mechanisms shaping the architecture of planetary systems is crucial for our understanding of their formation and evolution. In this context, it has been recently proposed that stellar clustering might be the key in shaping the orbital architecture of exoplanets. The main goal of this work is to explore the factors that shape the orbits of planets. We used a homogeneous sample of relatively young FGK dwarf stars with RV detected planets and tested the hypothesis that their association to phase space (position-velocity) over-densities ('cluster' stars) and under-densities ('field' stars) impacts the orbital periods of planets. When controlling for the host star properties, on a sample of 52 planets orbiting around 'cluster' stars and 15 planets orbiting around 'field' star, we found no significant difference in the period distribution of planets orbiting these two populations of stars. By considering an extended sample of 73 planets orbiting around 'cluster' stars and 25 planets orbiting 'field' stars, a significant different in the planetary period distributions emerged. However, the hosts associated to stellar under-densities appeared to be significantly older than their 'cluster' counterparts. This did not allow us to conclude whether the planetary architecture is related to age, environment, or both. We further studied a sample of planets orbiting 'cluster' stars to study the mechanism responsible for the shaping of orbits of planets in similar environments. We could not identify a parameter that can unambiguously be responsible for the orbital architecture of massive planets, perhaps, indicating the complexity of the issue. Conclusions. Increased number of planets in clusters and in over-density environments will help to build large and unbiased samples which will then allow to better understand the dominant processes shaping the orbits of planets.
