CoRoT-17 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet

CoRoT-17 is a Sun-like star of spectral type G2 V, located 3840 light-years away, and it hosts one known planet. The star is 10.7 billion years old, with a mass of 1.04 solar masses, a radius of 1.59 solar radii, and a temperature of 5740 K. Its reported radius estimate is larger than the Sun's.

The single planet, CoRoT-17 b, was found by the transit method in 2011. It is Jupiter-like, with a radius of 11.4 Earth radii, which is larger than Earth's, and it orbits in 3.77 days. Its mass is 772 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 2.43 times Jupiter's mass. The planet's mean density is 2.85 g/cm³, 0.517 times Earth's.
