Exoplanet Radio Ep. 15: A Giant Planet Found Orbiting a Small Star
Manage episode 411539862 series 49427
From August 8, 2023.
A massive, Jupiter-sized exoplanet has been discovered orbiting a small, low-mass star and this discovery is challenging theories on how planets form around their stars. The planet, called TOI-4860 b, is about the same size as Jupiter and orbits its star once every 1.5 Earth days, classifying it as a warm Jupiter. This is unusual because planets this large are not supposed to form around low-mass stars.
