Rare planet discovered orbiting near the Neptunian desert of a star TOI-3568

Star system: TOI 3568 | Distance from the Sun: 645 light years

It is a hot planet, bigger than Neptune with one of the highest luminosities in extreme ultraviolet for planets of this size. TOI-3568 b is 50% heavier than Neptune and its radius is 40% bigger. With an orbit lasting 4.4 days, it sits just outside the Neptunian desert, where the star evaporates the atmospheres of planets smaller than Jupiter and where only a few planets of this size have been found.
