Hot Stars With Hot Jupiters Have High Obliquities
We show that stars with transiting planets for which the stellar obliquity is large are preferentially hot (T [subscript eff] > 6250 K). This could explain why small obliquities were observed in the earliest measurements, which focused on relatively cool stars drawn from Doppler surveys, as oppos...
