Abstract

Using a high-precision algorithm for interpreting transit light curves in a model of a classical eclipsing binary star-exoplanet system, we studied the possibility of determining the system parameters in the absence of a priori knowledge of the orbital eccentricity. It was shown that it is impossible to determine the exact value of the eccentricity and periastron longitude based on the main minimum of the transit light curve alone. Also, at an observational accuracy of ~1% of the eclipse depth, the uncertainty in the eccentricity and periastron longitude together causes a significant uncertainty in the values of the component radii (a two-threefold error relative to the true values) and the orbital inclination angle. However, the ratios of the system component radii and the limb darkening coefficients are determined with good accuracy. At an increase in the observational accuracy to 0.1% of the eclipse depth, it becomes possible to determine the component radii and the orbital inclination angle when interpreting the light curve with allowance for the eccentricity.

在考虑到凌日(行星)轨道偏心率的情况下,对存在主主最小值的凌日光变曲线的解释
我们利用一种解释经典食双星-系外行星系统模型中凌日光变曲线的高精度算法,研究了在没有轨道偏心率先验知识的情况下确定系统参数的可能性。结果表明,仅凭凌日光曲线的主最小值是不可能确定偏心率和周天经度的精确值的。此外,在观测精度约为食深 1%的情况下,偏心率和近天体经度的不确定性会导致各分量半径值(与真实值相比误差达三倍)和轨道倾角的显著不确定性。不过,系统分量半径比和边缘暗化系数的测定精度很高。当观测精度提高到食深的 0.1%时,在解释光曲线并考虑偏心率时,就有可能确定分量半径和轨道倾角。
