Description
In this paper we present three new extrasolar planets from the Qatar
Exoplanet Survey. Qatar-8b is a hot Saturn, with M P = 0.37 M
J and R P = 1.3 R J, orbiting a
solar-like star every P orb = 3.7 days. Qatar-9b is a hot
Jupiter with a mass of M P = 1.2 M J and a radius
of R P = 1 R J, in an orbit of P orb =
1.5 days around a low mass, M ⋆ = 0.7 M
⊙, mid-K main-sequence star. Finally, Qatar-10b is a hot,
T eq ∼ 2000 K, sub-Jupiter mass planet, M P =
0.7 M J, with a radius of R P = 1.54 R
J and an orbital period of P orb = 1.6 days,
placing it on the edge of the sub-Jupiter desert.

Exoplanets and Astrobiology
The search for life in the universe has been driven by recent discoveries of planets around other stars (known as exoplanets), becoming one of the most active fields in modern astrophysics. The growing number of new exoplanets discovered in recent years and the recent advance on the study of their atmospheres are not only providing new valuable
