... period 2-2000 days. Extrapolating these results, they conclude that between 17% and 20% of stars possess gas giant planets within 20 AU, and about 11% of the exoplanetary systems have multiple planets. The true fraction of stars with multiple planets is likely to be significantly higher, due to the ...

Extrasolar planets - Astronomisk Ungdom
... All work around extra solar planets is fairly new and current. At present time the transit method is moderate for detecting planets of smaller sizes which are normally difficult to identify due to the strongly ablaze host stars. Furthermore, this system does not only uncover planets around other sta ...
