WASP-57 is a single G-type main-sequence star about 1310 light-years away. WASP-57 is depleted in heavy elements, having 55% of the solar abundance of iron.[3] WASP-57 is much younger than the Sun at 0.957±0.518 billion years.[5]

A multiplicity survey in 2015 did not detect any stellar companions to WASP-57.[6]

Planetary system

edit

In 2012 a transiting hot Jupiter planet b was detected on a tight, circular orbit around WASP-57.[7]

Planetary equilibrium temperature is 1338±29 K.[4]
