Abstract
This article discusses the possibility of the existence of a magnetodisk around the exoplanet HAT–P–11b. We used the available observational data to determine the properties of this exoplanet and the stellar wind passing by it, and obtained a rough estimate of the planetary magnetospheric scale. Our estimate was compared with the published results of calculations by the Particle-In-Cell method in a three-dimensional electromagnetic relativistic collisionless model of the magnetosphere. The resulting discrepancy between the magnetospheric scales obtained by these two methods is discussed, and its possible interpretation is proposed.
