Gliese 163 c (/ ˈ ɡ l iː z ə /) or Gl 163 c is a potentially habitable exoplanet, [3] [4] orbiting within the habitable zone of M dwarf star Gliese 163. [5]The parent star is 15.0 parsecs (approximately 49 light-years, or 465 trillion kilometers) from the Sun, in the constellation Dorado.
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 ).
HD 82943 c is an extrasolar planet approximately 89 light-years away in the constellation of Hydra. The planet was announced in 2001 to be orbiting the yellow dwarf star HD 82943 . [ 1 ] The planet is the innermost planet of two.
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 ...
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]
Kappa 1 Ceti is a yellow dwarf star of the spectral type G5Vv. [3] Since 1943, the spectrum of this star has served as one of the stable anchor points by which other stars are classified. [14] The star has roughly the same mass as the Sun, with 95% of the Sun's radius [8] but only 85 percent of the luminosity. [9]
A G2V-type yellow dwarf like the Sun belongs to Kepler-452, with an estimated age of 6 billion years (6 Ga) versus the solar system's 4.5 Ga. [ 46 ] The mass of its star is slightly higher than that of the Sun, 1.04 M ☉ , so despite the fact that it completes an orbit around it every 385 days versus 365 terrestrial days, it is warmer than the ...
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.
