HAT-P-18 is a K-type main-sequence star about 530 light-years away. The star is very old and has a concentration of heavy elements similar to solar abundance.[4] A survey in 2015 detected very strong starspot activity on HAT-P-18.[5]
In 2010 a transiting hot Saturn-sized planet was detected.[2] Its equilibrium temperature is 841 K.[6]
In 2014, observations utilizing the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect detected an exoplanet, HAT-P-18b, on a retrograde orbit, with an angle between orbital plane of the planet and the parent star equatorial plane equal to 132±15°.[7]
Transit-timing variation measurements in 2015 did not detect additional planets in the system.[8]
In 2016, the transmission optical spectra of the planet indicated that the atmosphere is lacking detectable clouds or hazes, and is blue in color due to Rayleigh scattering of light.[9] The atmosphere seems to gradually evaporate, but at a slow rate - less than 2% of planetary mass is lost per one billion years.[10]
The dayside temperature of HAT-P-18b was measured in 2019 to be 1004+78 −94 K.[11]
