HAT-P-30, also known as WASP-51, is the principal of a binary star system about 700 light-years away. It is a G-type main sequence star. The age of the star is much younger than that of the Sun. HAT-P-30 has a Continue Reading

HAT-P – 28b orbits a dwarf star V = 13.03 G3 with a period P = 3.2572 d and has a mass of 0.63 + – 0.04 MJ and a radius of 1.21 + 0.11 -0.08 RJ producing an average Continue Reading

HAT-P-7b (or Kepler-2b) is an extrasolar planet discovered in 2008. It orbits very close to its host star, and is both larger and more massive than Jupiter. Due to the extreme heat it receives from its star, the day-side temperature Continue Reading

HAT-P-55 b is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting a G-type star. Its mass is 0.582 Jupiter, it takes 3.6 days to complete an orbit of its star and it is 0.04604 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in Continue Reading

HAT-P-54b, a transiting planet orbiting a late dwarf K star in NASA’s K2 mission field. Ground-based photometric light curves were combined with radial velocity measurements to determine the physical parameters of the system. HAT-P-54b has a mass of 0.760 ± Continue Reading

HAT-P-43 b is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting a G-type star. Its mass is 0.662 Jupiter, it takes 3.3 days to complete an orbit of its star and it is 0.0444 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in Continue Reading

HAT-P-45 b is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting an F-type star. Its mass is 0.892 Jupiter, it takes 3.1 days to complete an orbit of its star and it is 0.0452 AU from its star. Its discovery was announced in Continue Reading
