Scientific paper

We perform 3D time-dependent numerical MHD simulations of the wind and magnetospheric structures of weak-lined T Tauri stars, in the case there is a misalignment between the axis of rotation of the star and its magnetic dipole moment vector. The model allow us to study the interaction of a magnetized wind with a magnetized exoplanet. Such interaction gives rise to reconnection, generating electrons that propagate along the planet's magnetic field lines and produce electron cyclotron radiation at radio wavelengths. This radio emission could be detectable by LOFAR in the near future.
