Stellar age

A group of astronomers and astrophysicists from multiple institutions in China, collaborating with colleagues from Centro Ricerche Enrico Fermi in Italy and the University of Utah in the U.S., has established a connection between the age of stars and the occurrence of hot Jupiters. Their study, detailed in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, involved assessing the ages of numerous star systems hosting exoplanets resembling Jupiter and conducting a comparative analysis.
