We re-examine the XUV luminosity evolution of TRAPPIST-1 utilizing new observational constraints (XUV and bolometric luminosity) from multi-epoch X-ray/UV photometry. Following the formalism presented in Fleming et al., we infer that TRAPPIST-1 maintained a saturated XUV luminosity, relative to the bolometric luminosity, of log10(L XUV/L bol) $=-{3.03}_{-0.23}^{+0.25}$ at early times for a period of t sat $={3.14}_{-1.46}^{+2.22}$ Gyr. After the saturation phase, we find L XUV decayed over time by an exponential rate of β XUV $=-{1.17}_{-0.28}^{+0.27}$. Compared to our inferred age of the system, $\mathrm{age}={7.96}_{-1.87}^{+1.78}$ Gyr, our result for t sat suggests that there is only a ∼4% chance that TRAPPIST-1 still remains in the saturated phase today, which is significantly lower than the previous estimate of 40%. Despite this reduction in t sat, our results remain consistent in the conclusion that the TRAPPIST-1 planets likely received an extreme amount XUV energy—an estimated integrated XUV energy of ∼1030–1032 erg over the star’s lifetime.

Trappist-1 的 XUV 亮度演化的改进约束

我们利用来自多纪元 X 射线/紫外光度法的新观测约束(XUV 和辐射光度)重新检查了 TRAPPIST-1 的 XUV 光度演变。根据 Fleming 等人提出的形式主义,我们推断 TRAPPIST-1在早期t sat Gyr的时间段内保持饱和 XUV 光度(相对于辐射热光度)为 log 10 ( L XUV / L bol ) 。在饱和阶段之后,我们发现L XUV随着时间的推移以β XUV的指数速率衰减。与我们推断的系统年龄Gyr 相比,我们对t sat的结果$=-{3.03}_{-0.23}^{+0.25}$ $={3.14}_{-1.46}^{+2.22}$ $=-{1.17}_{-0.28}^{+0.27}$$\mathrm{年龄}={7.96}_{-1.87}^{+1.78}$ 表明 TRAPPIST-1 今天仍然处于饱和阶段的可能性只有 4%,这明显低于之前估计的 40%。尽管t sat有所降低,但我们的结果仍然一致地得出结论,即 TRAPPIST-1 行星可能接收到极高量的 XUV 能量——在恒星的生命周期内估计的综合 XUV 能量约为10 30 –10 32 erg。
