Planetary magnetosphere evolution around post-main-sequence stars

چکیده
Accompanying the mounting detections of planets orbiting white dwarfs and giant stars are questions about their physical history evolution, particularly regarding detectability atmospheres potential for habitability. Here we determine how size planetary magnetospheres evolve over time from end main sequence through to dwarf phase due violent winds red asymptotic branch stars. By using a semianalytic prescription, investigate entire relevant space planet type, orbit stellar host mass (1-7Msun). We find that magnetosphere will always be quashed at some point during phases unless planet's magnetic field strength is least two orders magnitude higher than Jupiter's current value. also show variation wind density generates net increase in ram pressure does not allow maintained any strengths less 10^{-5} T (0.1 G). This lack protection hints currently potentially habitable would have been previously inhospitable.

Post-main-sequence planetary system evolution.
The fates of planetary systems provide unassailable insights into their formation and represent rich cross-disciplinary dynamical laboratories. Mounting observations of post-main-sequence planetary systems necessitate a complementary level of theoretical scrutiny. Here, I review the diverse dynamical processes which affect planets, asteroids, comets and pebbles as their parent stars evolve into...
متن کاملExtrasolar Planets around Main Sequence Stars
The mass distribution of substellar companions exhibits a steep rise for masses below 5 MJ. Thus, the 14 companions having Msin i = 0.5 { 5 MJ are considered the best candidate planets around main sequence stars. The occurrence of such planets within 3 AU is 4%, but 2/3 of them orbit within just 0.3 AU. This \pile up" of planets near stars suggests that inward orbital migration occurred after f...
متن کاملSubmillimeter lines from circumstellar disks around pre-main sequence stars
Observations of submillimeter lines of CO, HCO, HCN and their isotopes from circumstellar disks around low mass pre-main sequence stars are presented. CO lines up to J=6→5, and HCO and HCN lines up to J=4→3, are detected from the disks around LkCa 15 and TW Hya. These lines originate from levels with higher excitation temperatures and critical densities than studied before. Combined with interf...
متن کاملA search for H2 around pre-main-sequence stars
We present the results of a search for pure rotational molecular hydrogen emission from two pre-main-sequence stars, AB Aur and CQ Tau. Observations were made using MICHELLE, the mid-IR echelle spectrometer at the UK Infrared Telescope. We found some evidence for emission in the J = 4→ 2 line in AB Aur, but no J = 3→ 1 line from either star. We derive upper limits on line flux which are signifi...
متن کاملDust and Gas Debris Around Main Sequence Stars
Debris disks are dusty, gas-poor disks around main sequence stars (Backman & Paresce 1993; Lagrange, Backman & Artymowicz 2000; Zuckerman 2001). Micron-sized dust grains are inferred to exist in these systems from measurements of their thermal emission at infrared through millimeter wavelengths. The estimated lifetimes for circumstellar dust grains due to sublimation, radiation and corpuscular ...
