Recently astronomers discovered an exoplanet that practically reflects no light and belongs to the class of
hot Jupiters. Its mass corresponds to 12 Jupiter's masses, the average orbit radius is 0.0! "# and the
period is 2.$% days. &he given data about the exoplanet has been obtained 'ith the help of the data from
the ()epler( telescope 'hich continuously monitors the s*y region bet'een the constellations +ygnus and
,yra. &he device 'as launched in -arch 200. and is capable of seeing not only gas giants, but also planets
'ith the si/e of 0arth. Recently scientists have discovered that exoplanets are capable of causing huge
tidal 'aves in the stars that have a significant influence on the spectral parameters of the emitted light
from the star. In fact, 'ith the help of this effect scientists have been able to prove that the planet moves
around a star in a circular orbit.
