Falling Transiting Extrasolar Giant Planets
We revisit the tidal stability of extrasolar systems harboring a transiting planet and demonstrate that, independently of any tidal model, none but one (HAT-P-2b) of these planets has a tidal equilibrium state, which implies ultimately a collision of these objects with their host star. Consequently, conventional circularization and synchronization timescales cannot be defined because the corres...
متن کاملHAT-P-44b, HAT-P-45b, AND HAT-P-46b: THREE TRANSITING HOT JUPITERS IN POSSIBLE MULTI- PLANET SYSTEMS
We report the discovery by the HATNet survey of three new transiting extrasolar planets orbiting moderately bright (V=13.2, 12.8 and 11.9) stars. The planets have orbital periods of 4.3012, 3.1290, and 4.4631 days, masses of 0.39, 0.89, and 0.49MJ, and radii of 1.28, 1.43, and 1.28RJ. The stellar hosts have masses of 0.94, 1.26, and 1.28M⊙. Each system shows significant systematic variations in...
متن کاملFollow - up Observations of the Neptune Mass Transiting Extrasolar Planet Hat - P - 11 b
We have confirmed the existence of the transiting super Neptune extrasolar planet HAT-P-11b. On May 1, 2009 UT the transit of Hat-P-11b was detected at the University of Arizona’s 1.55m Kuiper Telescope with 1.7 millimag rms accuracy. We find a central transit time of Tc = 2454952.92534± 0.00060 BJD; this transit occurred 80 ± 73 seconds sooner than previous measurements (71 orbits in the past)...

متن کاملThe composition of transiting giant extrasolar planets
In principle, the combined measurements of the mass and radius a giant exoplanet allow one to determine the relative fraction of hydrogen and helium and of heavy elements in the planet. However, uncertainties on the underlying physics imply that some known transiting planets appear anomalously large, and this generally prevent any firm conclusion when a planet is considered on an individual bas...
