TOI-3757 b: A Low-density Gas Giant Orbiting a Solar-metallicity M Dwarf

نویسندگان

چکیده

We present the discovery of a new Jovian-sized planet, TOI-3757 b, lowest density planet orbiting an M dwarf (M0V). It orbits solar-metallicity discovered using TESS photometry and confirmed with precise radial velocities (RV) from HPF NEID. With planetary radius $12.0^{+0.4}_{-0.5}$ $R_{\oplus}$ mass $85.3^{+8.8}_{-8.7}$ $M_{\oplus}$, not only does this object add to small sample gas giants ($\sim 10$) around dwarfs, but also, its low ($\rho =$ $0.27^{+0.05}_{-0.04}$ $\textrm{g~cm}^{-3}$) provides opportunity test theories formation. two hypotheses explain density; first, we posit that metallicity stellar host ($\sim$ 0.3 dex lower than median dwarfs hosting giants) could have played role in delayed formation solid core massive enough initiate runaway accretion. Second, eccentricity estimate $0.14 \pm 0.06$ determine it is also plausible for tidal heating at least partially be responsible inflating TOI-3757b b. The large scale height b makes excellent target transmission spectroscopy studies atmospheric escape composition (TSM $\sim$ 190). use perform helium 10830 \AA~ line. Doing this, place upper limit 6.9 \% (with 90\% confidence) on maximum depth absorption metastable transition He \AA, which can help constraint loss rate energy limited regime.

Molecular Gas in the Low Metallicity , Star Forming Dwarf Ic

We present a complete survey of CO (1 → 0) emission in the Local Group dwarf irregular IC 10. The survey, conducted with the BIMA interferometer, covers the stellar disk and a large fraction of the extended H I envelope with the sensitivity and resolution necessary to detect individual giant molecular clouds (GMCs) at the distance of IC 10 (950 kpc). We find 16 clouds with a total CO luminosity...

Rapid Formation of Gas Giant Planets around M Dwarf Stars

Extrasolar planet surveys have begun to detect gas giant planets in orbit around M dwarf stars. While the frequency of gas giant planets around M dwarfs so far appears to be lower than that around G dwarfs, it is clearly not zero. Previous work has shown that the core accretion mechanism does not seem to be able to form gas giant planets around M dwarfs, because the time required for core forma...

A brown dwarf orbiting an M-dwarf: MOA 2009–BLG–411L⋆

Context. Caustic crossing is the clearest signature of binary lenses in microlensing. In the present context, this signature is diluted by the large source star but a detailed analysis has allowed the companion signal to be extracted. Aims. MOA 2009-BLG-411 was detected on August 5, 2009 by the MOA-Collaboration. Alerted as a high-magnification event, it was sensitive to planets. Suspected anom...

Oscillations of a Giant Solar Tornado

Solar magnetic tornadoes are known to be one of the mass and energy transport mechanisms from the lower solar atmosphere into the upper layers of the solar corona. A bright spiral structure with two arms is observed using high-cadence EUV images of 171, 193 and 304 Ǻ channels of Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) aboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) on 10th of July 2011 for three hours. ...

Spectroscopy Of Low Metallicity Giant H II Regions: A grid of low Metallicity Stellar atmospheres

We calculate a grid of spherically symmetric OB stellar atmospheres at low metallicities, including both non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) and metal line blanketing effects. This is done to assess the uncertainties in helium abundance determination by nebular codes due to input stellar atmosphere models. The more sophisticated stellar atmosphere models we use can differ from LTE models...
