本研究发现6100万年前Theia 116星协中G4V恒星TIC 434398831周围存在迷你海王星和超级海王星组成的双行星系统,通过TESS及后续观测确认凌星,并探讨了行星质量损失历史以揭示其形成初始条件。

摘要:

观测和表征年轻行星系统有助于揭示塑造成熟系外行星种群的演化机制。作为全天巡天项目,NASA的凌星系外行星巡天卫星(TESS)在观测年轻共动恒星种群时,扩展了已知的年轻行星种群。本工作报道了一个多行星系统的发现,该系统围绕位于Theia 116共动种群中的6100万年前的G4V恒星TIC 434398831(质量M = 0.99太阳质量,半径R = 0.91太阳半径,有效温度Teff = 5638 K,TESS星等Tmag = 11.31)运行。我们基于TESS光变曲线测得的自转周期、等时线拟合以及Theia 116成员光谱中锂等效宽度的测量,估算了该星协的年龄。TESS全帧图像(FFI)光变曲线揭示了一颗迷你海王星(半径Rb = 3.51地球半径,周期Pb = 3.69天)和一颗超级海王星(半径Rc = 5.63地球半径,周期Pc = 6.21天),其轨道周期比略大于5:3。来自CHEOPS和地面望远镜的后续观测确认了TIC 434398831 b和c的凌星事件,并约束了它们的凌星时刻。我们探讨了这两颗行星潜在的质量损失历史,以探测行星形成后立即可能的初始条件。

英文摘要:

Observing and characterizing young planetary systems can aid in unveiling the evolutionary mechanisms that sculpt the mature exoplanet population. As an all-sky survey, NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has expanded the known young planet population as it has observed young comoving stellar populations. This work presents the discovery of a multiplanet system orbiting the 61 Myr old G4V star TIC 434398831 (M = 0.99 Msun, R = 0.91 Rsun, Teff = 5638 K, Tmag = 11.31) located in the Theia 116 comoving population. We estimate the population's age based on rotation periods measured from the TESS light curves, isochrone fitting, and measurements of lithium equivalent widths in the spectra of Theia 116 members. The TESS FFI light curves reveal a mini-Neptune (Rb = 3.51 Rearth, Pb = 3.69 days) and super-Neptune (Rc = 5.63 Rearth, Pc = 6.21 days) with an orbital period ratio slightly larger than 5:3. Follow-up observations from CHEOPS and ground-based telescopes confirm the transits of TIC 434398831 b and c, and constrain their transit times. We explore the potential mass-loss histories of the two planets in order to probe possible initial conditions of the planets immediately after formation.
