Аннотация: For the hot exoplanets CoRoT-24b and CoRoT-24c, observations have provided transit radii R-T of 3.7 +/- 0.4R(circle plus) and 4.9 +/- 0.5R(circle plus), and masses of = 5.7M(circle plus) and 28 +/- 11M(circle plus), respectively. We study their upper atmosphere structure and escape applying an hydrodynamic model. Assuming R-T +/- RПоказать полностью-PL, where R-PL is the planetary radius at the pressure of 100 mbar, we obtained for CoRoT-24b unrealistically high thermally driven hydrodynamic escape rates. This is due to the planet's high temperature and low gravity, independent of the stellar EUV flux. Such high escape rates could last only for
