Description

A large fraction of the exoplanets discovered today are in a close-in orbit around their host star. This proximity allows them to be magnetically connected to their host, which lead to e cient energy and angular momentum exchanges between the star and the planet. We carry out three-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamic simulations of close-in star-planet systems to characterize the e ect of the inclination of the planetary magnetic  eld on the star-planet magnetic interaction. We parametrize this e ect in scaling laws depending on the star, planet, and stellar wind properties that can be applied to any exoplanetary systems around cool stars.
