This is Scientific American's 60-Second Space. I'm John Matson. Got a minute?

隐藏原文=

In planet formation, as in adolescence, you've got your late bloomers.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

Such is the case for a nearby star called TW Hydrae.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

At some three million to 10 million years of age, it's relatively old for a young star.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

That is, TW Hydrae formed much more recently than our sun but is past the point at which most fledgling stars are still encircled by a massive disk of dust and gas--the stuff of planet formation.

隐藏原文=

But a new analysis shows that TW Hydrae retains a surprisingly hefty circumstellar disk, implying that the star could still be forming giant planets.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

The study appears in the journal Nature.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

Researchers from the U.S., Germany and the Netherlands pointed the European Space Agency's orbiting Herschel Space Observatory at TW Hydrae to investigate the star's disk.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

They detected levels of a heavy hydrogen molecule called hydrogen deuteride.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

From that measurement they were able to estimate the abundance of ordinary hydrogen, which makes up the bulk of the disk.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

The result: TW Hydrae still has enough raw material left to make 60 Jupiters or so, despite its maturity.

点击显示原文

隐藏原文=

For aging stars, then, perhaps 10 million is the new 30.

隐藏原文=

Thanks for the minute, for Scientific American's 60-Second Space. I'm John Matson.
