HAT-P-18 is a K-type main-sequence star about 530 light-years away. The star is very old and has a concentration of heavy elements similar to solar abundance.[3] A survey in 2015 detected very strong starspot activity on HAT-P-18.[4]
Planetary system
In 2010 a transiting hot Saturn-sized planet was detected.[2] Its equilibrium temperature is 841 K.[5]
In 2014, observations utilizing a Rossiter–McLaughlin effect detected an exoplanet HAT-P-18b on a retrograde orbit, with an angle between orbital plane of the planet and the parent star equatorial plane equal to 132±15°.[6]
The transit-timing variation measurements in 2015 did not detect additional planets in the system.[7]
In 2016, the transmission optical spectra of planet indicated that the atmosphere is lacking detectable clouds or hazes, and is blue in color due Rayleigh scattering of light.[8]
The dayside temperature of the HAT-P-18b was measured in the 2019 to be 1004+78
−94 K.[9]
