Best F Star
WASP-18b is an ultrashort-period hot Jupiter exoplanet discovered by the Wide Angle Search for Planets survey in 2009. It has a mass roughly 10 times that of Jupiter and completes an orbit around its F-class host star in less than one day. Because it orbits closely to its star, the planet is subject...
Tau Boötis b is an exoplanet categorized as a hot Jupiter, orbiting the F-type star Tau Boötis. Discovered in 1996 using the radial velocity method, it was one of the earliest exoplanets found around a sun-like star. The planet is tidally locked to its host star and was among the first exoplanets to...
Upsilon Andromedae b is a hot Jupiter exoplanet discovered in 1996 orbiting the F-type main-sequence star Upsilon Andromedae A, located approximately 44 light-years from Earth. It was the first planet detected in this system, which subsequently became the first confirmed multi-planet system discover...
Upsilon Andromedae c is a giant exoplanet orbiting the F-type star Upsilon Andromedae. Announced in 1999 from radial-velocity observations, it completes an orbit in roughly 241 days and is one of several giant planets known in the system. Those discoveries established Upsilon Andromedae as an early...
A Jupiter-class giant confirmed in 1999 in the Upsilon Andromedae system, whose orbital plane is strongly misaligned with planet e, suggesting a dynamic past.
AF Leporis b is a young gas giant discovered in 2023, notable for being one of the lightest exoplanets directly imaged from the ground using astrometry and direct imaging.
HD 114762 b is one of the earliest exoplanet candidates, reported by Latham et al. in 1989; its minimum mass of ~11 Jupiter masses puts it near the brown dwarf boundary.
The fourth planet in the Upsilon Andromedae system, discovered in 2010, a massive giant whose orbit is highly inclined relative to planet d's orbital plane.
Massive gas giant of approximately 7 Jupiter masses orbiting the F-type subgiant HD 86264 in a moderately eccentric orbit, discovered via radial velocity.
