A Planetary Mass and Stellar Radius Relationship for Exoplanets Orbiting Red Giants

Abstract

A scatter plot of exoplanet mass against red giant host star radius demonstrates an interesting positive trend: larger stars have more massive planets. This implies that the evolution of a star towards a red giant affects the masses of planets in the system.
