CoRoT-11b is a transiting Hot Jupiter-sized exoplanet found by the CoRoT space telescope in 2010.[4] From obtained light curves and Bayesian inference on the data, it is highly likely that CoRoT-11b has been observed in a secondary eclipse around its host star (transiting behind it). [5]
Host star
[edit]CoRoT-11b orbits the star CoRoT-11 in the constellation of Serpens. It is a F6V star with an effective temperature of 6440±120 K, a mass of 1.270±0.050 M☉, a radius of 1.370±0.030 R☉, and a near-solar metallicity of −0.03±0.08 dex.[a] It has an estimated age of 2.0±1.0 Gyr.[6]
