The gas giants in the Solar System are hypothesized to have played important roles in the formation and habitability of the Earth. This project aims to put the Solar System in a broader context of the exoplanet demography. The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) a uniform sample of small planets discovered with the public Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite data; (2) detection of additional gas giants and in-depth characterisation of the best planetary systems; (3) occurrence rate of planetary systems cohosting both gas giant and small planets. This study will provide significant benefits for theoretically understanding the uniqueness of the Solar System, as well as the formation and evolution of planetary systems in general.

据推测，太阳系中的气态巨行星在地球的形成和宜居性方面发挥了重要作用。该项目旨在将太阳系置于系外行星人口统计的更广泛背景下。该项目的预期成果包括：(1)使用公共过境系外行星测量卫星数据发现的小行星的统一样本；(2)发现更多的气态巨行星并深入表征最佳行星系统；(3)气体巨星和小行星共存的行星系统的发生率。这项研究将为从理论上理解太阳系的独特性以及一般行星系统的形成和演化提供重要的好处。
