WASP-12b is a hot Jupiter [6] (a class of extrasolar planets) orbiting the star WASP-12, discovered in April of 2008, by the SuperWASP planetary transit survey. [7] [1] The planet takes only a little over one Earth day to orbit its star, in contrast …

这个最新发现的行星是“WASP-12b”，它的质量是木星的1.5倍，但令人惊奇的是，它环绕其主恒星一周却只用1天的时间，它与主恒星之间的距离也仅为地球至太阳距离的四十分之一。 这种“紧紧拥抱”恒星的轨道使WASP-12b的温度上升至2250摄氏度，该温度与多数恒星的温度十分接近，是太阳温度的二分之一。 英国圣安德鲁斯大学 的莱斯利·赫布 (Leslie Hebb)称，这是目前所发现最炽热的行星，同时，它也是运行最快的行星。 据悉，赫布和研究同事是在一项叫做“超级广角行星 …

2016年7月17日 · Almost two times the size of our Jupiter, WASP-12b is a sizzling gas giant whose temperature is approximately 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit (2,210 degrees Celsius). Gravity causes enormous tidal forces which are stretching the planet into the shape of an egg. WASP-12b is located roughly 1,200 light-years away in the constellation Auriga.

2024年10月25日 · The doomed planet WASP-12b is a hot Jupiter that orbits so close to its parent star, it's being torn apart. It takes this alien world only 1.1 days to completely circle its sun. The star's scorching heat is slowly stripping away and devouring the planet's atmosphere.

2010年2月25日 · A new analysis of WASP-12b's properties suggests that the energy sustaining its inflated size comes from tidal forces that cause the atmosphere to escape the planet's gravitational pull and...

WASP-12b is a hot Jupiter (a class of extrasolar planets) orbiting the star WASP-12, discovered in April of 2008, by the SuperWASP planetary transit survey. The planet takes only a little over one Earth day to orbit its star, in contrast to about 365.25 days for the Earth to orbit the Sun. Its distance from the star (approximately 3.5 million kilometers …

2008年12月17日 · Abstract: We report on the discovery of WASP-12b, a new transiting extrasolar planet with $R_{\rm pl}=1.79 \pm 0.09 R_J$ and $M_{\rm pl}=1.41 \pm 0.1 M_J$. The planet and host star properties were derived from a Monte Carlo Markov Chain analysis of the transit photometry and radial velocity data.

2009年3月10日 · We report on the discovery of WASP-12b, a new transiting extrasolar planet with Rpl = 1.79 +0.09−0.09RJ and Mpl = 1.41 +0.10−0.10MJ. The planet and host star properties were derived from a Monte Carlo Markov Chain analysis of …
