APAO 2015, Практически тур, Групи α и β — Задача 9

XI Asian-Pacific Astronomy Olympiad — Practical round · 13 ноември 2015 г.

Внимание: Бележка към темата

The referenced data sheets containing YY Gem radial velocities and exoplanet masses and surface gravities are missing from the archived practical paper and the available companion files. The questions are reproduced here, but their numerical tasks require those missing data.

Условие

You are given the data for the mass (M, in masses of Jupiter) and surface gravity (g) of some exoplanets (see “sheet of data”).

9.1. Plot the log⁡(M/MJ)\log(M/M_J) against log⁡(g)\log(g).

9.2. It is given that the density (ρ\rho) of these exoplanets varies approximately as a function of their mass (M) in following fashion:

ρ=α⋅Mβ,\rho=\alpha\cdot M^{\beta},

where β\beta is an integer. Determine values of α\alpha and β\beta.

9.3. What will be the surface gravity of Earth if the plot in part 9.2. is extended to it.

9.4. Is the value calculated in part 9.4. of the same order of magnitude as the actual value? Write in English “Yes” or “No”.

MJupiter=318 MEarthM_{\mathrm{Jupiter}}=318\ M_{\mathrm{Earth}}
