Abstract
Hot Jupiters are giant Jupiter-like exoplanets that orbit their host stars 100 times more closely than Jupiter orbits the Sun. These planets presumably form in the outer part of the primordial disk from which both the central star and surrounding planets are born, then migrate inwards and yet avoid falling into their host star1. It is, however, unclear whether this occurs early in the lives of hot Jupiters, when they are still embedded within protoplanetary disks2, or later, once multiple planets are formed and interact3. Although numerous hot Jupiters have been detected around mature Sun-like stars, their existence has not yet been firmly demonstrated for young stars4,5,6, whose magnetic activity is so intense that it overshadows the radial velocity signal that close-in giant planets can induce. Here we report that the radial velocities of the young star V830 Tau exhibit a sine wave of period 4.93 days and semi-amplitude 75 metres per second, detected with a false-alarm probability of less than 0.03 per cent, after filtering out the magnetic activity plaguing the spectra. We find that this signal is unrelated to the 2.741-day rotation period of V830 Tau and we attribute it to the presence of a planet of mass 0.77 times that of Jupiter, orbiting at a distance of 0.057 astronomical units from the host star. Our result demonstrates that hot Jupiters can migrate inwards in less than two million years, probably as a result of planet–disk interactions2.

Extended data figures and tables
扩展数据图1 Estimating the surface differential rotation parameter.
Variations of the reducedχ2as a function of the surface differential rotation parameters Ωeqand dΩ, denoting respectively the rotation rate at the equator and the difference in rotation rate between the equator and the pole (and assuming a solar-like sine-square differential rotation law). The location of the minimum and the local paraboloid curvature yield the optimal parameters and their respective 1σerror bars19, equal to 2.29525 ± 0.00020 and 0.0172 ± 0.0014 radians per day. The outer colour contour traces the 99.99% confidence interval (corresponding to aχ2increase of 18.4 for a two-parameter optimization problem).
扩展数据图2 Complementary periodograms.
a, Same asFig. 3a(middle plot) using the BGLS approach21, showing that the 4.93-day peak we detect is at least 105times more likely than any other features.b, Same asFig. 3bfor Hα emission, another activity proxy, featuring a clear peak at the stellar rotation period but no power at the planet orbital period.c, Same asFig. 3a(middle plot) for our new data combined with the 2015 January subsample of our original data12. The planet is now detected with a higher confidence level (FAP < 10−5) but the accuracy of the orbital period is not much improved (with multiple nearby peaks of similar strength). The red and green dashed lines are for the original and new data respectively.d, Same asc, zooming on the orbital frequency. The orbital period corresponding to the strongest peak is equal to 4.924 ± 0.004 days (1σerror bar).
扩展数据图3 Periodograms of simulated data.
a, Same asFig. 3, for simulated data computed using the brightness map, differential rotation and planet parameters inferred from the real data, and assuming the same coverage and similarS/N(equal for all LSD profiles). As for our observations, the planet signal is detected at a confidence level >99.9% in the filtered radial velocities despite being invisible in the raw radial velocities, and the planet parameters are well recovered. The periodogram of the raw radial velocities is very similar to that ofFig. 3, featuring the main peaks (atProtandProt/2) and their aliases; residual radial velocities mostly reflect the noise in the data.b, Same as the upper two panels ofabut with no planet included in the simulation. No signal with a confidence level >90% is recovered in the filtered radial velocities, demonstrating that the filtering process is not generating spurious radial velocity signals, in particular at a period of 4.93 days.
扩展数据图4 Radial velocity curves of simulated data.
a, Same asFig. 2afor the simulated data described inExtended Data Fig. 3a(using the same brightness map, differential rotation and planet parameters as those of V830 Tau b). The simulated radial velocities (periodograms shown inExtended Data Fig. 3a) share obvious similarities with the observed ones, and the planet signal is safely recovered (root-mean-square dispersion of residual radial velocities equal to 45 m s−1).b, Same as the middle panel ofabut with no planet included. As for the periodogram (seeExtended Data Fig. 3b, bottom panel), no signal is detected, further illustrating that activity induces no spurious planet signature. As forFig. 2, simulated radial velocity measurements are depicted in all panels with their 1σerror bars.
