HAT-P-20 is a K-type main-sequence star about 233 light-years away. The star has a strong starspot activity,[5] and its equatorial plane is misaligned by 36+10
−12
° with the planetary orbit.[7] Although star with a giant planet on close orbit is expected to be spun-up by tidal forces, only weak indications of tidal spin-up were detected.[10]

Planetary system

[edit]

In 2010 a transiting hot super-Jovian planet was detected.[4] Its equilibrium temperature is 996±19 K.
