HD 69830 (285 G. Puppis) is a yellow dwarf star located 41.0 light-years (12.6 parsecs) away in the constellation of Puppis. In 2005, the Spitzer Space Telescope discovered a narrow ring of warm debris orbiting the star. [10] The debris ring contains substantially more dust than the Solar System's asteroid belt.
HD 28185 is a single [4] yellow dwarf star similar to the Sun, located 128 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Eridanus. The designation HD 28185 refers to its entry in the Henry Draper catalogue. The star is known to possess two long-period extrasolar planets. [4]
HD 2039 is a yellow dwarf or yellow subgiant star in the constellation Phoenix.The star is not visible to the naked eye, and lies 280 light years away from the Sun.HD 2039 is a relatively stable star, and an exoplanet at least three times the mass of the planet Jupiter has been discovered in its orbit; this exoplanet, known as HD 2039 b, was the 100th exoplanet to be discovered.
A G-type main-sequence star (spectral type: G-V), also often, and imprecisely, called a yellow dwarf, or G star, is a main-sequence star (luminosity class V) of spectral type G. Such a star has about 0.9 to 1.1 solar masses and an effective temperature between about 5,300 and 6,000 K (5,000 and 5,700 °C ; 9,100 and 10,000 °F ).
Motion interpolation of seven images of the HR 8799 system taken from the W. M. Keck Observatory over seven years, featuring four exoplanets. This is a list of extrasolar planets that have been directly observed, sorted by observed separations. This method works best for young planets that emit infrared light and are far from the glare of the star.
[17] [18] The planet's orbit takes 799.5 days to complete, with a semimajor axis of 1.69 AU. [19] It has a very high eccentricity of 0.69, which might be the result of gravitational perturbations from 16 Cygni A. In particular, simulations show the planet's eccentricity oscillates between low and high values in timescales of tens of millions of ...
WASP-12 is a magnitude 11 yellow dwarf star located approximately 1347 light-years away [2] in the constellation Auriga. [4] WASP-12 has a mass and radius similar to the Sun and is known for being orbited by a planet that is extremely hot and has a retrograde orbit around WASP-12. WASP-12 forms a triple star system with two red dwarf companions ...
The habitable zone around yellow dwarfs varies according to their size and luminosity, although the inner boundary is usually at 0.84 AU and the outer one at 1.67 in a G2V class dwarf like the Sun. [19] In a G5V class dwarf -smaller- of 0.95 R☉ the habitable zone would correspond to the region located between 0.8 and 1.58 AU with respect to ...
