CoRoT-14b is a transiting Hot Jupiter exoplanet found by the CoRoT space telescope in 2010.[3]

Host star

[edit]

CoRoT-14b orbits CoRoT-14 in the constellation of Monoceros. It is an F9V star with an effective temperature of 6,035 K (5,762 °C; 10,403 °F), a mass of 1.13 M, a radius of 1.21 R, and a near-solar metallicity. It has an estimated age between 0.4 and 8.0 Gyr.[3]

Characteristics

[edit]

The planet is unusually dense (7.3 g/cm3) for its mass and distance from host star, making CoRoT-14b one of the densest gas giants known.[3]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
