All Tables

Table 1: Planetary parameters as given by J. Schneider (http://www.obspm.fr/encycl/catalog.html). Listed (in units of Jupiter's mass and radius) are the projected planetary mass, the planetary mass and radius if determined by observation. The orbital semi-major axis and eccentricity are given as well as the inclination. These are followed by the calculated distances in AU and stellar radii. The last column gives the orbital period.
Table 2: Stellar parameters taken from Allende Prieto & Lambert (1999). The first column gives the name of the planet followed by the stellar HD and HIP numbers. The other columns list the apparent visual magnitude, the parallax, the absolute magnitude, the colour B-V and the stellar mass, radius, bolometric correction and effective temperature. The rms errors are given below the parameter values except for the radius. Note that Allende Prieto & Lambert (1999) originally gave the radius as $\log R$ . Hence, the error stated below the calculated radius is the maximum deviation of the calculated value obtained by applying the rms error to the $\log R$ value.
Table 3: Summarized stellar parameters taken from the references listed below. The columns show the lower and upper limits of the stellar masses, radii, ages and rotation periods. Each column is followed by a column listing the references, which are sorted in ascending order according to the parameter value the authors give.
Table 4: Alfvén radii $r_{\rm A}$ and velocities A_r obtained with the Weber & Davis model for the two stars HD 46375 and $\upsilon$ And. The stellar winds were modeled for different magnetic field strengths B₀at the coronal base, rotation periods $P_{\rm {rot}}$ and coronal temperatures T as given in the table. In addition, the wind velocities at 1 AU $v_{r,{\rm 1~AU}}$ are given.
Table 5: Alfvén Mach numbers $M_{\rm A}=v_r/A_r$ at the locations of HD 46375 b and $\upsilon$ And b for parallel and antiparallel directions of stellar rotation and planetary movement. The values were derived for different magnetic field strengths B₀ at the coronal base as well as different stellar rotation periods $P_{\rm {rot}}$ and coronal temperatures T as given in the table.
Table 6: Results for $\upsilon$ And b and HD 46375 b obtained with the Weber & Davis model with coronal temperatures T, magnetic field strengths B₀ and rotation periods $P_{\rm {rot}}$ as given as general parameters. For the two planets the radial and azimuthal velocity components $(v_r,v_\varphi )$ and the azimuthal magnetic field components $B_\varphi$ at the location of the planets are listed. With these, the magnetospheric stand-off distances $R_{\rm m}$ and magnetic moments ${\vec M}$ were estimated, followed by the power P that can be deposited by the stellar wind into the magnetosphere. For comparison the stand-off distance and the power input into the magnetosphere for the same planet located at 1 AU are also given.
