The estimate of hot Jupiter mass loss rate in the interaction with CME from a solar type star
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 September 2016
Abstract
We consider the influence of a coronal mass ejection (CME) of a solar type star on the mass loss rate of a hot Jupiter exoplanet. We have conducted 3D numerical gas-dynamic simulations of the planet's atmosphere that interacts with CME. Using the results of these simulations we have estimated the specific parameters that influence the mass loss rate. Based on the assumption that CME totally sweeps away part of the planet's gaseous envelope located outside the Roche lobe we estimated the maximum mass loss rate. Finally, we have considered the dependence of mass loss rate on the frequency of CMEs in course of star's evolution.
