Trojan Exoplanets
Trojan Exoplanets
Résumé
Co-orbital exoplanets are a by-product of the models of formation of planetary systems. However, none have been detected in nature thus far. Although challenging, the observation of co-orbital exoplanets would provide valuable information on the formation of planetary systems as well as on the interactions between planets and their host star. After a brief review of the stability and formation issues of co-orbital systems, some observational methods dedicated to their detection are presented.
