hot Neptune

This planet is classified as a hot Neptune.

In addition the hot Neptune Gliese 436 b enters secondary eclipse.

The system's innermost planet was the first "hot Neptune or super-Earth" to be discovered.

Depending on its composition, it is the first published "hot Neptune" or "super-Earth".

Despite being the third closest planet to Kepler-20, it is still close to the star, meaning that it is a Hot Neptune.

Judging by their radii, b may be a large Super-Earth or small Hot Neptune while the other four are all likely to be the latter.

The planet is thought to be largely composed of hot ices with an outer envelope of hydrogen and helium, and is termed a "hot Neptune".

The most notable of these are Gliese 436 b, the first transiting hot Neptune found, and HAT-P-11b, which was recently observed by the Kepler mission.

It has a mass and radius around half of Neptune but is the closest planet to Kepler-20 in the planetary system, meaning that it is a hot Neptune.

A hot Neptune is an extrasolar planet in an orbit close to its star (normally less than one astronomical unit away), with a mass similar to that of Uranus or Neptune.

With a minimum mass just 18 times that of the Earth, the planet is likely a "hot Neptune" planet, a small Jovian planet, or possibly a large terrestrial planet (a super-Earth).

There is disagreement as to whether it is and has always been a hot Neptune in mass (Lammer), or if it could have developed from a gas giant, losing most of its mass on the way (Baraffe).
