摘要
Over the last few years, several close orbiting (similar to 0.05 AU) large mass planets (M similar to M-Jupiter) of nearby stars have been discovered. Their existence has been inferred from tiny doppler shifts in the light from the star. We suggest that these planets may be made of mirror matter. We also suggest that some stars such as our sun may also have a similar amount of mirror matter, which has: escaped detection. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
