We report on the discovery of a hot Jupiter-type exoplanet, CoRoT-17b, detected by the CoRoT satellite. It has a mass of $2.43pm0.30$Mjup and a radius of $1.02pm0.07$Rjup, while its mean density is $2.82pm0.38$ g/cm$^3$. CoRoT-17b is in a circular orbit with a period of $3.7681pm0.0003$ days. The host star is an old ($10.7pm1.0$ Gyr) main-sequence star, which makes it an intriguing object for planetary evolution studies. The planets internal composition is not well constrained and can range from pure H/He to one that can contain $sim$380 earth masses of heavier elements.
Aims. The CoRoT space mission continues to photometrically monitor about 12 000 stars in its field-of-view for a series of target fields to search for transiting extrasolar planets ever since 2007. Deep transit signals can be detected quickly in the
In this paper, the CoRoT Exoplanet Science Team announces its 14th discovery. Herein, we discuss the observations and analyses that allowed us to derive the parameters of this system: a hot Jupiter with a mass of $7.6 pm 0.6$ Jupiter masses orbiting
We present the discovery of a candidate multiply-transiting system, the first one found in the CoRoT mission. Two transit-like features with periods of 5.11 and 11.76d are detected in the CoRoT light curve, around a main sequence K1V star of r=15.1.
We report the detection of CoRoT-23b, a hot Jupiter transiting in front of its host star with a period of 3.6314 pm 0.0001 days. This planet was discovered thanks to photometric data secured with the CoRoT satellite, combined with spectroscopic radia
The CoRoT satellite exoplanetary team announces its sixth transiting planet in this paper. We describe and discuss the satellite observations as well as the complementary ground-based observations - photometric and spectroscopic - carried out to asse
