Very large radius estimate likely due to the presence of an extended circumplanetary disk or diffuse dust and gas envelope surrounding the planet.
Sissa (2017) provide a greater planetary mass (m = 25 MJup) and higher temperature (T = 2,630 K) for HD 100546 b. Estimated radius is downscaled to 3.4 RJup. Pineda et al. (2019) consider a much lower mass (m = 1.65 MJup) more likely.
