Scientific paper

We present the results of an exoplanet formation statistical analysis using data from the CoRoT space mission. Our sample contains 1372 M type main sequence stars from the LRa02 and LRc01 CoRoT fields. Each light curve (LC) was de-trended by CoRoT Detrend Algorithm (CDA). The planetary detection procedure found zero transiting signals in our sample. Using Monte Carlo simulations, transit probabilities and CoRoT's mission statistical results, we found that the expected number of exoplanets around M dwarf stars is significant bigger than the detected number.
