A super-Earth planet in the WASP-84 system

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Hot Jupiters have been perceived as loners devoid of planetary companions in close orbital proximity.

Description

However, recent discoveries based on space-borne precise photometry have revealed that at least some fraction of giant planets coexists with low-mass planets in compact orbital architectures. We report detecting a 1.446-d transit-like signal in the photometric time series acquired with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) for the WASP-84 system, which is known to contain a hot Jupiter on a circular 8.5-d orbit.

The planet was validated based on TESS photometry, and its signal was distilled in radial velocity measurements. The joint analysis of photometric and Doppler data resulted in a multiplanetary model of the system. With a mass of 15M_{sun}_, radius of 2R_{sun}_, and orbital distance of 0.024au, the new planet WASP-84 c was classified as a hot super-Earth with the equilibrium temperature of 1300K.

A growing number of companions to hot Jupiters indicates that a non-negligible part of them must have formed under a quiescent scenario such as disc migration or in situ formation.
