摘要

我们报告了由下一代凌星巡天(NGTS)发现的一颗新的超短周期凌星热木星。NGTS-10b 的质量和半径分别为 2.1620.107+0.0922.162\,^{+0.092}_{-0.107} MJ_{\rm J}1.2050.083+0.1171.205\,^{+0.117}_{-0.083} RJ_{\rm J},并以 0.7668944±0.00000030.7668944\pm0.0000003 天的周期绕其宿主恒星运转,使其成为迄今发现的最短周期热木星。宿主是一颗 10.4±2.510.4\pm2.5 Gyr 老的 K5V 恒星(TeffT_\mathrm{eff}=4400±1004400\pm100\,K),具有太阳金属丰度([Fe/H] = 0.02±0.12-0.02\pm0.12\,dex),显示出中等的恒星活动迹象。NGTS-10b 加入了超短周期木星的最短名单,它们是研究星-行星潮汐相互作用的主要候选体。NGTS-10b 仅在 1.46±0.181.46\pm0.18 个洛希半径处绕其宿主运转,我们假设恒星潮汐品质因子 Qs=2×107Q'_{\rm s}=2\times10^{7},计算出其中位剩余内旋时间为 3838\,Myr,且未来十年可测量的凌星时间偏移为 77\,秒。
