Orbits of the Solar System Planets
Orbits of the Solar System Planets
All Solar System planets orbit in the same direction
small orbital eccentricities
At a maximum (Mercury) e = 0.2
small orbital inclinations
The spin axis of the Sun and the orbital axes of
planets are aligned within 7 degrees
In almost the same orbital plane (ecliptic plane)
The configuration is explained by core-accretion models
in a proto-planetary disk
Orbits of Jovian Satellites
Orbits of Solar System Asteroids and SatellitesAsteroids
most of asteroids orbits in the ecliptic plane significant portion of asteroids have tilted orbits dozens of retrograde asteroids have been discovered
Satellites orbital axes of satellites are mostly aligned with the
spin axis of host planets dozens of satellites have tilted orbits or even
retrograde orbits (e.g., Triton around Neptune)Tilted or retrograde orbits are common for those bodies
and are explained by scattering with other bodies etc
Motivation to study exoplanetary orbits
Orbits of the Solar System bodies reflect
the formation history of the Solar System
How about extrasolar planets?
Planetary orbits would provide us information
about formation histories of exoplanetary systems!

Semi-Major Axis Distribution of Exoplanets
Need planetary migration mechanisms!
Snow line
Jupiter
Standard Migration Models
consider gravitational interaction between
proto-planets and proto-planetary disk
• Type I: less than 10 Earth mass proto-planets
• Type II: more massive case (Jovian planets)
well explain the semi-major axis distribution
e.g., a series of Ida & Lin papers
predict small eccentricities and small inclination for
migrated planets
Type I and II migration mechanisms
Eccentricity Distribution
Cannot be explained by Type I & II migration model
Jupiter
Eccentric Planets
Migration Models for Eccentric Planets
consider gravitational interaction between
planet-planet (planet-planet scattering models)
planet-binary companion (Kozai migration)
ejected planet
captured planets
Kozai mechanism
companion
star
orbit 1: low eccentricity and high inclination
orbit 2: high eccentricity and low inclination
binary orbital plane
caused by perturbation from a distant companionand angular momentum conservation
originally for planet-satellite system (Kozai 1962)
Migration Models for Eccentric Planets
consider gravitational interaction between
planet-planet (planet-planet scattering models)
planet-binary companion (Kozai migration)
may be able to explain the whole orbital distribution
e.g., Nagasawa+ 2008, Fabrycky & Tremaine 2007
predict a variety of eccentricities
and also predict misalignments between stellar-spin and
planetary-orbital axes
Examples of Obliquity PredictionTilted and even retrograde planets are predicted.
How can we test these models by observations?Morton & Johnson (2010)

Planetary transits
2006/11/9
transit of Mercury
observed with Hinode
transit in the Solar System
If a planetary orbit passes in front of its host star by chance,
we can observe exoplanetary transits as periodical dimming.
transit in exoplanetary systems(we cannot spatially resolve)
slightly dimming
The Rossiter-McLaughlin effect
the planet hides the approaching side→ the star appears to be receding
the planet hides the receding side→ the star appears to be approaching
planet planetstar
When a transiting planet hides stellar rotation,
radial velocity of the host star would havean apparent anomaly during transits.
What can we learn from RM effect?
Gaudi & Winn (2007)
The shape of RM effectdepends on the trajectory of a transiting planet.

Radial velocity during transits = the Keplerian motion and the RM effect

Results of Previous Observations
Our group: Subaru telescope
13 targets observed
7 papers published and 3 papers are in prep.
5 out of 13 planets have tilted or retrograde orbit!
US: Keck telescope, UK, France: HARPS at 3.6m telescope
over 30 targets observed
similar percentage planets have tilted or retrograde orbit
now statistically assured
What we learned from RM measurements
Tilted or retrograde planets are not rare
p-p scattering or Kozai mechanism occur in exoplanetary systems
Stellar Spin
Planetary Orbit
Remaining ProblemsWhich model is a dominant migration mechanism?
The number of samples is still insufficient to answer statistically.Morton & Johnson (2010)
Remaining Problems
One cannot distinguish between p-p scattering and Kozai
migration for each planetary system
To specify a planetary migration mechanism for each system,
we need to search for counterparts of migration processes
long term radial velocity measurements (< 10AU)
direct imaging (> 10-100 AU)

• Summary
Motivation for high-contrast direct imaging
The results of the RM effect encourage direct imaging because
a significant part of planetary systems may have wide
separation massive bodies (e.g., scattered massive planets or
brown dwarfs, or binary companions)
direct imaging for tilted or eccentric planetary systems may
allow us to specify a migration mechanism for each planetary
system
An example of this study: Target HAT-P-7
not eccentric, but retrograde (NN+ 2009b, Winn et al. 2009c)
very interesting target to search for outer massive bodies

Characterization of binary candidates
Based on stellar SED (Table 3) in Kraus and Hillenbrand (2007).Assuming that the candidates are main sequence stars
at the same distance as HAT-P-7.
projected separation: ~1000 AU
Can these candidates cause Kozai migration?
The perturbation of a binary must be the strongest in the
system to cause the Kozai migration (Innanen et al. 1997)
If perturbation of another body is stronger
Kozai migraion refuted
If such an additional body does not exist
both Kozai and p-p scattering still survive
An additional body ‘HAT-P-7c’
HJD - 2454000
Winn et al. (2009c) 2008 and 2010 Subaru data(unpublished)
2007 and 2009 Keck data
Long-term RV trend ~20 m/s/yr is ongoing from 2007 to 2010
constraint on the mass and semi-major axis of ‘c’
(Winn et al. 2009c)
Result for the HAT-P-7 case
We detected two binary candidates, but the Kozai migration
was excluded because perturbation by the additional body is
stronger than that by companion candidates
As a result, we conclude that p-p scattering is the most likely
migration mechanism for this system
Ongoing and Future Subaru Observations
There are numbers of tilted and/or eccentric transiting planets
These planetary systems are interesting targets that we may be
able to discriminate planetary migration mechanisms
No detection is still interesting to refute Kozai migration
Detections of outer massive bodies are very interesting
but It would take some time to confirm such bodies
Waiting 2nd Epoch and more…
speckle?
Summary
RM measurements have discovered numbers of tilted and
retrograde planets
Tilted or eccentric planets are explained by p-p scattering or
Kozai migration --> those mechanisms are not rare
One problem is that we cannot distinguish between p-p
scattering and Kozai migration from orbital tilt or eccentricity
High-contrast direct imaging can resolve the problem and may
allow us to specify migration mechanism for each system
Further results will be reported in the near future!
How to constrain migration mechanism
Step 1: Is there a binary candidate?
No
Kozai migration by a binary companion is excluded
If a candidate exist → step 2
both p-p scattering and Kozai migration survive
need a confirmation of true binary nature
• common proper motion
• common peculiar radial velocity
• common distance (by spectral type)
How to constrain migration mechanism
Step 2: calculate restricted region for Kozai migration
The Kozai migration cannot occur if the timescale of orbital precession
due to an additional body PG,c is shorter than that caused by a binary
through Kozai mechanism PK,B (Innanen et al. 1997)
If any additional body exists in the restricted region
Kozai migraion excluded
search for long-term RV trend is very important
If no additional body is found in the region
both Kozai and p-p scattering still survive
