List of unconfirmed exoplanets

List of unconfirmed exoplanets

."

"For a list of unconfirmed brown dwarfs, see list of brown dwarfs."

In addition to known extrasolar planets, there are many planet candidates whose existence is more or less uncertain, or they are now known not to exist.

Probable extrasolar planets

There are a number of exoplanet candidates that are waiting to be confirmed.

Disproven candidates

There are several candidates that have been shown to be more massive than a planet, or not to be real at all.


=Proplyds with gaps and no known planets=

"When planets are confirmed, please move to the list of confirmed planets."

Many young stars are accompanied with a protoplanetary disk. Some of the disks have are known to have gaps or other structures which might have been caused by an orbiting planet.
