Gliese 667 Cb is an exoplanet orbiting the star Gliese 667 C, a member of the Gliese 667 triple-star system. It is the most massive planet discovered in the system and is likely a super-Earth or a mini-Neptune. Orbital-stability analysis indicates that it cannot be more than twice its minimum mass.
Gliese 667 Cc is a super-Earth, an exoplanet with a mass and radius greater than that of Earth, but smaller than that of the giant planets Uranus and Neptune. It is heavier than Earth with a minimum mass of about 3.7 Earth masses. [5] The equilibrium temperature of Gliese 667 Cc is estimated to be 277.4 K (4.3 °C; 39.6 °F). [6]
Illustration of the inferred size of the super-Earth CoRoT-7b (center) in comparison with Earth and Neptune. A Super-Earth or super-terran or super-tellurian is a type of exoplanet with a mass higher than Earth, but substantially below those of the Solar System's ice giants, Uranus and Neptune, which are 14.5 and 17.1 times Earth's, respectively.

Gliese 536 b also known as GJ 536 b [2] [1] [3] is a nearby [5] [6] Super-Earth sized exoplanet orbiting interior to the circumstellar habitable zone [5] [6] of the red dwarf (M1) [1] star Gliese 536 every 8.7 days. Due to its short orbital period it could help with future studies of biological activity on exoplanets.
Presuming resonance chain extends to the outermost, cold, super-terrestrial Gliese 357 d and the resonances are simple, GJ 357 might have a more suitable planet for life with an approximate 27.5 day period and almost Earth's flux. Additionally, it might host a Mars-sized planet in 2:1 period ratio with GJ 357 c and 2:3 ratio with hypothetical ...
GJ 3634 b (sometimes Gliese 3634 b) is a super-Earth exoplanet in the orbit of the nearby red dwarf GJ 3634 at approximately 64.5 light-years [5] in constellation Hydra.The planet is approximately eight times the mass of Earth, and orbits its star every two and a half days at a distance of 0.0287 AU.
The planet is about the size of Venus, so slightly smaller than Earth, and may be temperate enough to support life, the researchers said. Dubbed Gliese 12 b, the planet takes 12.8 days to orbit a ...
Gliese 581c / ˈ ɡ l iː z ə / (Gl 581c or GJ 581c) is an exoplanet orbiting within the Gliese 581 system. It is the second planet discovered in the system and the third in order from the star. With a mass about 6.8 times that of the Earth, it is classified as a super-Earth (a category of planets with masses greater than Earth's up to ten ...
