Some measurable characteristic timescales $\left\{t_\mathrm{trn}\right\}$ of transiting exoplanets are investigated in order to check preliminarily if their cumulative shifts over the years induced by the post-Newtonian (pN) gravitoelectric (Schwarzschild) and gravitomagnetic (Lense-Thirring) components of the至少在原则上,恒星重力场是可测量的。考虑了主要的(星球前的行星)和次级(星星背后的行星)及其相关的特征时间间隔:总运输持续时间$ t_d $,Ingress/Egress/Egress Transit $τ$,全半宽度,最大最大主要持续时间$ T_H $,以及Conjununtion $ T_ $ t_ \ t_ \ t_ \ t_ cj cj Jj cj J.

Some measurable characteristic timescales $\left\{t_\mathrm{trn}\right\}$ of transiting exoplanets are investigated in order to check preliminarily if their cumulative shifts over the years induced by the post-Newtonian (pN) gravitoelectric (Schwarzschild) and gravitomagnetic (Lense-Thirring) components of the stellar gravitational field are, at least in principle, measurable. Both the primary (planet in front of the star) and the secondary (planet behind the star) transits are considered along with their associated characteristic time intervals: the total transit duration $t_D$, the ingress/egress transit duration $τ$, the full width at half maximum primary transit duration $t_H$, and also the time of conjunction $t_\mathrm{cj}$. For each of them, the net changes per orbit $\langleΔt_D\rangle,\,\langleΔτ\rangle,\,\langleΔt_H\rangle,\,\langleΔt_\mathrm{cj}\rangle$ induced by the aforementioned pN accelerations are analytically obtained; also the Newtonian effect of the star's quadrupole mass moment $J_2^\star$ is worked out. They are calculated for a fictitious Sun-Jupiter system in an edge-on elliptical orbit, and the results are compared with the present-day experimental accuracies for the HD 286123 b exoplanet. Its pN gravitoelectric shift $\left\langleΔt_\mathrm{cj}^\mathrm{1pN}\right\rangle$ may become measurable, at least in principle, at a $\simeq 8\times 10^{-5}$ level of (formal) relative accuracy after about 30 years of continuous monitoring corresponding to about 1000 transits. Systematics like, e.g., confusing time standards, neglecting star spots, neglecting clouds, would likely deteriorate the actual accuracy. The method presented is general enough to be applied also to modified models of gravity.
