Scientific paper

A more generic view of the 'Hot Jupiter' magnetosphere structure, based on the Paraboloid Magnetospheric Model (PMM) is provided. Due to the outflow of ionized particles from the hydrodynamiccally expanding upper atmosphere, 'Hot Jupiters' should have extended magnetodisks. The magnetic field produced by magnetodisk ring currents, dominates above the contribution of intrinsic magnetic dipole of a 'Hot Jupiter' and finally determines the size and shape of the whole magnetosphere.
