The companion masses are m sin i = 0.187 MJup and 0.658 MJup, with semi-major axes of a = 0.681 AU and 0.897 AU, and eccentricities of e = 0.168 and 0.097, respectively. A dynamical analysis of the system further shows a 3:2 mean motion resonance between the two planets, which prevents close encounters and ensures the stability of the system over 5 Gyr. This is the first time that such a resonant configuration has been observed for extra-solar planets, although there is an analogue in our Solar System formed by Neptune and Pluto. This singular planetary system may provide important constraints on planetary formation and migration scenarios.

Petit ASD/IMCCE, CNRS-UMR 8028, Observatoire de Paris, PSL, UPMC, 77 Avenue Denfert-Rochereau, 75014 Paris, France e-mail: [email protected] Received 7 November 2016 / Accepted 23 January 2017 ABSTRACT We present here in full detail the evolution of the angular momentum deficit (AMD) during collisions as it was described in Laskar (2000, Phys. Rev. Lett., 84, 3240). Since then, the AMD has been revealed to be a key parameter for the understanding of the outcome of planetary formation models. We define here the AMD-stability criterion that can be easily verified on a newly discovered planetary system. We show how AMD-stability can be used to establish a classification of the multiplanet systems in order to exhibit the planetary systems that are long-term stable because they are AMD-stable, and those that are AMD-unstable which then require some additional dynamical studies to conclude on their stability. The AMD-stability classification is applied to the 131 multiplanet systems from The Extrasolar Planet Encyclopaedia database for which the orbital elements are sufficiently well known.

  • Density Estimation for Projected Exoplanet Quantities
    Density Estimation for Projected Exoplanet Quantities Robert A. Brown Space Telescope Science Institute, 3700 San Martin Drive, Baltimore, MD 21218 [email protected] ABSTRACT Exoplanet searches using radial velocity (RV) and microlensing (ML) produce samples of “projected” mass and orbital radius, respectively. We present a new method for estimating the probability density distribution (density) of the un- projected quantity from such samples. For a sample of n data values, the method involves solving n simultaneous linear equations to determine the weights of delta functions for the raw, unsmoothed density of the unprojected quantity that cause the associated cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the projected quantity to exactly reproduce the empirical CDF of the sample at the locations of the n data values. We smooth the raw density using nonparametric kernel density estimation with a normal kernel of bandwidth σ. We calibrate the dependence of σ on n by Monte Carlo experiments performed on samples drawn from a the- oretical density, in which the integrated square error is minimized. We scale this calibration to the ranges of real RV samples using the Normal Reference Rule. The resolution and amplitude accuracy of the estimated density improve with n. For typical RV and ML samples, we expect the fractional noise at the PDF peak to be approximately 80 n− log 2. For illustrations, we apply the new method to 67 RV values given a similar treatment by Jorissen et al. in 2001, and to the 308 RV values listed at exoplanets.org on 20 October 2010. In addition to an- alyzing observational results, our methods can be used to develop measurement arXiv:1011.3991v3 [astro-ph.IM] 21 Mar 2011 requirements—particularly on the minimum sample size n—for future programs, such as the microlensing survey of Earth-like exoplanets recommended by the Astro 2010 committee.

The star is a K1 giant with a mass of 1.81±0.13 M⊙, a radius of 7.30 ± 0.33 R⊙, and solar metallicity. The planetary system is composed of +0.20 +0.16 +2.5 two giant planets with minimum mass of 1.75−0.17 MJ and 1.86−0.15 MJ, orbital period of 363.3−2.4 d +5.0 +0.079 +0.067 and 684.7−4.9 d, and eccentricity of 0.089−0.060 and 0.278−0.094, respectively, which are derived by a double Keplerian orbital fit to the radial-velocity data. The system adds to the population of multi- giant-planet systems with relatively small orbital separations, which are preferentially found around evolved intermediate-mass stars. Dynamical stability analysis for the system revealed, however, that the best-fit orbits are unstable in the case of a prograde configuration.

  • The Dynamical Origin of the Multi-Planetary System HD 45364

Rein1,J.C.B.Papaloizou1,andW.Kley2 1 University of Cambridge, Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, Centre for Mathematical Sciences, Wilberforce Road, Cambridge CB3 0WA, UK e-mail: [email protected] 2 University of Tübingen, Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Auf der Morgenstelle 10, 72076 Tübingen, Germany Received 30 August 2009 / Accepted 26 October 2009 ABSTRACT The recently discovered planetary system HD 45364, which consists of a Jupiter and Saturn-mass planet, is very likely in a 3:2 mean motion resonance. The standard scenario for forming planetary commensurabilities is convergent migration of two planets embedded in a protoplanetary disc. When the planets are initially separated by a period ratio larger than two, convergent migration will most likely lead to a very stable 2:1 resonance. Rapid type III migration of the outer planet crossing the 2:1 resonance is one possible way around this problem. In this paper, we investigate this idea in detail. We present an estimate of the required convergent migration rate and confirm this with N-body and hydrodynamical simulations. If the dynamical history of the planetary system had a phase of rapid inward migration that forms a resonant configuration, we predict that the orbital parameters of the two planets will always be very similar and thus should show evidence of that. We use the orbital parameters from our simulation to calculate a radial velocity curve and compare it to observations.
