AI总结:

本研究通过CHARA Array干涉观测测定51 Eridani系统的恒星基本参数,结合模型推算行星51 Eri b的质量,验证了该行星的两种可能形成模型。

摘要:

研究系外行星时,全面表征宿主恒星的角直径、温度、光度、年龄等基本属性至关重要,因为系外行星的形成与演化在不同阶段都直接受宿主恒星影响。本文介绍了利用CHARA Array(高角分辨率天文中心阵列)对直接成像的行星宿主星51 Eridani开展的干涉观测。我们测得HD 29391的临边昏暗角直径为$θ_{\rm LD} = 0.450\rm \u00b1 0.006 ~mas$,结合Gaia零点校正后的视差,得到恒星半径为$1.45 \rm \u00b1 0.02 ~R_{\u2299}$。我们使用PARSEC等时线估算其年龄为$23.2^{+1.7}_{-2.0} \rm ~Myr$,质量为$1.550^{+0.006}_{-0.005}\rm ~M_{\u2299}$,该年龄和质量与文献中通过动力学年龄回溯、锂耗尽边界法等多种方法得到的数值高度吻合。我们借助Sonora Bobcat模型推算出51 Eri b的质量为$4.1 \rm \u00b1 0.4 ~M_{Jup}$,这进一步支持了51 Eri b可能通过热启动形成模型或温启动形成模型形成的观点。

英文摘要:

In order to study exoplanets, a comprehensive characterization of the fundamental properties of the host stars, such as angular diameter, temperature, luminosity, and age, is essential, as the formation and evolution of exoplanets are directly influenced by the host stars at various points in time. In this paper, we present interferometric observations taken of directly imaged planet host 51 Eridani at the CHARA Array. We measure the limb-darkened angular diameter of HD 29391 to be $θ_{\rm LD} = 0.450\pm 0.006 \rm ~mas$ and combining with the Gaia zero-point corrected parallax, we get a stellar radius of $1.45 \pm 0.02 \rm~R_{\odot}$. We use the PARSEC isochrones to estimate an age of $23.2^{+1.7}_{-2.0} \rm ~Myr$ and a mass of $1.550^{+0.006}_{-0.005}\rm ~M_{\odot}$. The age and mass agree well with values in the literature, determined through a variety of methods ranging from dynamical age trace-backs to lithium depletion boundary methods. We derive a mass of $4.1 \pm 0.4\rm ~M_{Jup}$ for 51 Eri b using the Sonora Bobcat models, which further supports the possibility of 51 Eri b forming under either the hot-start formation model or the warm-start formation model.
