We aim, on the one hand, to study the possible differences of Li abundances between planet hosts and stars without detected planets at effective temperatures hotter than the Sun, and on the other hand, to explore the Li dip and the evolution of Li at high metallicities. Methods. We present lithium abundances for 353 main sequence stars with and without planets in the Teff range 5900–7200 K. We observed 265 stars of our sample with HARPS spectrograph during different planets search programs. We observed the remaining targets with a variety of high-resolution spectrographs.

  • Determining the True Mass of Radial-Velocity Exoplanets with Gaia 9 Planet Candidates in the Brown-Dwarf/Stellar Regime and 27 Confirmed Planets

Yet, many published exoplan- ets lack a measurement of their true mass, in particular those detected thanks to radial velocity (RV) variations of their host star. For those, only the minimum mass, or m sin i, is known, owing to the insensitivity of RVs to the inclination of the detected orbit compared to the plane-of-the-sky. The mass that is given in database is generally that of an assumed edge-on system (∼90◦), but many other inclinations are possible, even extreme values closer to 0◦ (face-on). In such case, the mass of the published object could be strongly underestimated by up to two orders of magnitude.

Here, we present the radial velocity measurements for 378 N2K target stars that were observed with the HIRES spectrograph at Keck Observatory between 2004 and 2017. With this data set, we announce the discovery of six new gas giant exoplanets: a double-planet system or- biting HD 148164 (M sin i of 1.23 and 5.16 MJUP) and single planet detections around HD 55696 (M sin i = 3.87 MJUP), HD 98736 (M sin i= 2.33 MJUP), HD 203473 (M sin i = 7.8 MJUP), and HD 211810 (M sin i = 0.67 MJUP). These gas giant companions have orbital semi-major axes between 1.0 and 6.2 AU and eccentricities ranging from 0.13 to 0.71.

  • Solar System Analogues Among Exoplanetary Systems
    Solar System analogues among exoplanetary systems Maria Lomaeva Lund Observatory Lund University ´´ 2016-EXA105 Degree project of 15 higher education credits June 2016 Supervisor: Piero Ranalli Lund Observatory Box 43 SE-221 00 Lund Sweden Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Människans intresse för rymden har alltid varit stort. Man har antagit att andra plan- etsystem, om de existerar, ser ut som vårt: med mindre stenplaneter i banor närmast stjärnan och gas- samt isjättar i de yttre banorna. Idag känner man till drygt 2 000 exoplaneter, d.v.s., planeter som kretsar kring andra stjärnor än solen. Man vet även att vissa av dem saknar motsvarighet i solsystemet, t. ex., heta jupitrar (gasjättar som har migrerat inåt och kretsar väldigt nära stjärnan) och superjordar (stenplaneter större än jorden). Därför blir frågan om hur unikt solsystemet är ännu mer intressant, vilket vi försöker ta reda på i det här projektet. Det finns olika sätt att detektera exoplaneter på men två av dem har gett flest resultat: transitmetoden och dopplerspektroskopin. Med transitmetoden mäter man minsknin- gen av en stjärnas ljus när en planet passerar framför den. Den metoden passar bäst för stora planeter med små omloppsbanor. Dopplerspektroskopin använder sig av Doppler effekten som innebär att ljuset utsänt från en stjärna verkar blåare respektive rödare när en stjärna förflyttar sig fram och tillbaka från observatören. Denna rörelse avslöjar att det finns en planet som kretsar kring stjärnan och påverkar den med sin gravita- tion. Dopplerspektroskopin är lämpligast för massiva planeter med små omloppsbanor. Under projektets gång har vi inte bara letat efter solsystemets motsvarigheter utan även studerat planetsystem som är annorlunda.

  • Survival of Exomoons Around Exoplanets 2

Despite numerous attempts, no exomoon has firmly been confirmed to date. New missions like CHEOPS aim to characterize previously detected exoplanets, and potentially to discover exomoons. In order to optimize search strategies, we need to determine those planets which are the most likely to host moons. We investigate the tidal evolution of hypothetical moon orbits in systems consisting of a star, one planet and one test moon. We study a few specific cases with ten billion years integration time where the evolution of moon orbits follows one of these three scenarios: (1) “locking”, in which the moon has a stable orbit on a long time scale (& 109 years); (2) “escape scenario” where the moon leaves the planet’s gravitational domain; and (3) “disruption scenario”, in which the moon migrates inwards until it reaches the Roche lobe and becomes disrupted by strong tidal forces.

The first planet has a mass of M sin i = 4.96MJup and is orbiting the G3 IV star HD154672 with an orbital period of 163.9 days. The second planet is orbiting the F7 V star HD205739 with an orbital period of 279.8 days and has a mass of M sin i =1.37MJup. Both planets are in eccentric orbits, with eccentricities e = 0.61 and e = 0.27, respec- tively.

  • Revising the Ages of Planet-Hosting Stars⋆

This article aims to measure the age of stars with planets (SWP) through stellar tracks and isochrones computed with the PAdova and TRieste Stellar Evolutionary Code (PARSEC). Methods. We developed algorithms based on two different techniques for determining the ages of field stars: isochrone placement and Bayesian estimation. Their application to a synthetic sample of coeval stars shows the intrinsic limits of each method. For instance, the Bayesian computation of the modal age tends to select the extreme age values in the isochrones grid. Therefore, we used the isochrone placement technique to measure the ages of 317 SWP. Results. We found that ∼6% of SWP have ages lower than 0.5 Gyr. The age distribution peaks in the interval [1.5, 2) Gyr, then it decreases. However, ∼7% of the stars are older than 11 Gyr. The Sun turns out to be a common star that hosts planets, when considering its evolutionary stage. Our SWP age distribution is less peaked and slightly shifted towards lower ages if compared with ages in the literature and based on the isochrone fit.

  • Age Consistency Between Exoplanet Hosts and Field Stars

Nascimbeni2 1 Dipartimento di Fisica e Astronomia, Università degli Studi di Padova, Vicolo dell’Osservatorio 3, 35122 Padova, Italy e-mail: [email protected] 2 Osservatorio Astronomico di Padova, INAF, Vicolo dell’Osservatorio 5, 35122 Padova, Italy Received 2 September 2015 / Accepted 3 November 2015 ABSTRACT Context. Transiting planets around stars are discovered mostly through photometric surveys. Unlike radial velocity surveys, photo- metric surveys do not tend to target slow rotators, inactive or metal-rich stars. Nevertheless, we suspect that observational biases could also impact transiting-planet hosts. Aims. This paper aims to evaluate how selection effects reflect on the evolutionary stage of both a limited sample of transiting-planet host stars (TPH) and a wider sample of planet-hosting stars detected through radial velocity analysis. Then, thanks to uniform deriva- tion of stellar ages, a homogeneous comparison between exoplanet hosts and field star age distributions is developed. Methods. Stellar parameters have been computed through our custom-developed isochrone placement algorithm, according to Padova evolutionary models. The notable aspects of our algorithm include the treatment of element diffusion, activity checks in terms of 0 log RHK and v sin i, and the evaluation of the stellar evolutionary speed in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram in order to better constrain age. Working with TPH, the observational stellar mean density ρ? allows us to compute stellar luminosity even if the distance is not available, by combining ρ? with the spectroscopic log g.
