Abstract: |
I present our latest studies on the
spot evolution, X-ray emission, and chromospheric emission in the CoRoT-2
exoplanetary system.
In 2008, the CoRoT space mission discovered the transits of the hot Jupiter
CoRoT-2b orbiting a highly active, young star, which has remained among
the youngest and most active planet host-stars known to date.
The extraordinary properties of the host star, CoRoT-2A, and its planet have made
the system a major target for follow-up studies and a potential milestone object
to understand young planetary systems. |
