Abstract

The goal of the Ariel space mission is to observe a large and diversified population of transiting planets around a range of host star types to collect information on their atmospheric composition. The planetary bulk and atmospheric compositions bear the marks of the way the planets formed: Ariel's observations will therefore provide an unprecedented wealth of data to advance our understanding of planet formation in our Galaxy. A number of environmental and evolutionary factors, however, can affect the final atmospheric composition. Here we provide a concise overview of which factors and effects of the star and planet formation processes can shape the atmospheric compositions that will be observed by Ariel, and highlight how Ariel's characteristics make this mission optimally suited to address this very complex problem.

摘要

阿里尔太空任务的目标是观测围绕一系列宿主恒星类型的大量多样化的凌日行星群体，以收集有关其大气成分的信息。行星的整体和大气成分带有行星形成方式的印记：因此，阿里尔的观测将提供前所未有的丰富数据，以推进我们对银河系中行星形成的理解。然而，一些环境和演化因素会影响最终的大气成分。在这里，我们简要概述恒星和行星形成过程中的哪些因素和效应会塑造阿里尔将观测到的大气成分，并强调阿里尔的特性如何使这项任务最适合解决这个非常复杂的问题。
