Orbital Decay Candidates Reconsidered: WASP-4 b Is Not Decaying and Kepler-1658 b Is Not a Planet
The fate of hot Jupiters is thought to be engulfment by their host stars, the outcome of tidal orbital decay. Transit timing has revealed a few systems with apparently shrinking orbital periods, but such signals can be mimicked by light travel-time ...

Giant planets are expected to predominantly form beyond the water-ice line and occasionally undergo inward migration. Unlike hot Jupiters, which can result from high-eccentricity tidal migration, warm Jupiters between 0.1 and 1 au (≈10–365 days) are in ...

We present a pattern emerging from stellar obliquity measurements in single-star systems: planets with high planet-to-star mass ratios ( M _P / M _* ≥ 2 × 10 ^−3 )—such as super-Jupiters, brown dwarf companions, and M dwarfs hosting Jupiter-like planets ...

Age Analysis of Extrasolar Planets: Insight from Stellar Isochrone Models
There is growing evidence from stellar kinematics and galactic chemical evolution suggesting that giant planets ( M _P ≥ 0.3 M _J ) are relatively young compared to the most commonly occurring population of small planets ( M _P < 0.3 M _J ).

Recent Kepler observations revealed an unexpected abundance of "hot" Earth-size to Neptune-size planets in the inner ~0.02-0.2 AU from their parent stars. Another "oddity" of recent observations is the discovery of a hot jupiter planet around a very metal poor star of extragalactic origin.
