==Earliest detections==


Reports of planetary systems first came in 1996 for three stars located over 40 light-years away: [[55 Cancri]],<ref name="Butler1997">{{cite doi |10.1086/310444}}</ref> Since 1999, more planets have been reported, including a total of five planets revolving around 55 Cancri, and four planets around [[Gliese 876]], Upsilon Andromedae. Eight star systems have three confirmed planetary partners, four other have only two planets, while the remaining 20 systems have only one confirmed planet. A total of seven planets have been suggested for [[Gliese 667 C]] (but only two have been confirmed), six around Gliese 581 and [[HD 40307]], and a total of five planets revolving around [[Tau Ceti]] (all unconfirmed).

==Nearest confirmed planet==
The closest star with a confirmed exoplanet is [[Gliese 674]], 14.8 light-years away from our [[Solar System]]. Of the other [[List of nearest stars and brown dwarfs|41 star systems]] that are closer, the closest, [[Alpha Centauri]] (4.1 light-years away), has been suggested to contain [[Alpha Centauri Bb|a planetary companion]] that may be similar in size to Earth.<ref name = "Dumusque">{{cite doi|10.1038/nature11572 }}</ref> Of the 35 planetary systems located within 50 light-years, 20 are located within 40 light-years, 11 are within 30 light-years, and only four are within 20 light-years.

The closest star with a confirmed exoplanet is [[Kapteyn b]] which approximately 13 light years from Earth, followed by [[Gliese 674]], 14.8 light-years away from our [[Solar System]]. Of the other [[List of nearest stars and brown dwarfs|41 star systems]] that are closer, the closest, [[Alpha Centauri]] (4.1 light-years away), has been suggested to contain [[Alpha Centauri Bb|a planetary companion]] that may be similar in size to Earth.<ref name = "Dumusque">{{cite doi |10.1038/nature11572 }}</ref> Of the 35 planetary systems located within 50 light-years, 20 are located within 40 light-years, 11 are within 30 light-years, and only four are within 20 light-years.

==Planets with orbits close to their own suns==


Out of the 65 confirmed planets within 50 light-years, more than half were found to revolve around their star closer and complete an orbit faster than [[Mercury (planet)|Mercury]] does around the [[Sun]], and 18 have a more eccentric orbit than that of Mercury. Considering their [[minimum mass]]es, 46 exoplanets are expected to be [[gas giant]]s, and only 19 under ten times more massive than [[Earth]]. The smallest of these has minimum mass of 2.4 times that of Earth's and revolves around [[82 G. Eridani]], 20 light-years away. Only three exoplanets have had their radii measured from transit events with their host stars: [[Gliese 436 b]] at 0.365 [[Jupiter radius|''R''<sub>J</sub>]],<ref name=autogenerated11/> [[55 Cancri e]] at 0.178 ''R''<sub>J</sub><ref name=autogenerated19/> and [[GJ 1214 b]] at 0.238 ''R''<sub>J</sub>.<ref name=autogenerated6/>

===Official status===

There is no official organization that acknowledges reports for the existence of exoplanets, but the Working Group on Extrasolar Planets of the [[International Astronomical Union]] adopted in 2003 a working definition limiting the upper masses of exoplanets below that where thermonuclear fusion of [[deuterium]] occurs. This limit is calculated to be around 13 times the [[Mass_of_Jupiter#Mass|mass of Jupiter]], and above it, an object is classified as a [[brown dwarf]].<ref name=IAU>{{cite doi |10.1017/S1743921306004509}}</ref>

===Partially measured planets===


Usually, nearby exoplanets have been discovered by measuring the changes in the [[radial velocity]] of the host star, which allows for a precise estimate of their orbital parameters, but does not allow for an estimate of their [[orbital inclination]] (''i'').

Revision as of 05:38, 11 August 2014

Fomalhaut is a star 25 light-years away with an exoplanet (Fomalhaut b) that has been directly imaged in 2013 by NASA.

Astronomers have identified a total of 65 exoplanets within 50 light-years of the Solar System,[a] but the existence of at least another 34 unconfirmed exoplanets has been proposed. This corresponds to only 35 stars with confirmed planetary systems (and six with only unconfirmed exoplanets) of the around 1,400 stars that are estimated to be located within 50 light-years.[b][1]

Of the around 133 nearby stars which are bright enough to be visible with the naked eye,[c][1] so far, only 18 have confirmed planetary systems.

Earliest detections

Reports of planetary systems first came in 1996 for three stars located over 40 light-years away: 55 Cancri,[2] Since 1999, more planets have been reported, including a total of five planets revolving around 55 Cancri, and four planets around Gliese 876, Upsilon Andromedae. Eight star systems have three confirmed planetary partners, four other have only two planets, while the remaining 20 systems have only one confirmed planet. A total of seven planets have been suggested for Gliese 667 C (but only two have been confirmed), six around Gliese 581 and HD 40307, and a total of five planets revolving around Tau Ceti (all unconfirmed).

Nearest confirmed planet

The closest star with a confirmed exoplanet is Kapteyn b which approximately 13 light years from Earth, followed by Gliese 674, 14.8 light-years away from our Solar System. Of the other 41 star systems that are closer, the closest, Alpha Centauri (4.1 light-years away), has been suggested to contain a planetary companion that may be similar in size to Earth.[3] Of the 35 planetary systems located within 50 light-years, 20 are located within 40 light-years, 11 are within 30 light-years, and only four are within 20 light-years.

Planets with orbits close to their own suns

Out of the 65 confirmed planets within 50 light-years, more than half were found to revolve around their star closer and complete an orbit faster than Mercury does around the Sun, and 18 have a more eccentric orbit than that of Mercury. Considering their minimum masses, 46 exoplanets are expected to be gas giants, and only 19 under ten times more massive than Earth. The smallest of these has minimum mass of 2.4 times that of Earth's and revolves around 82 G. Eridani, 20 light-years away. Only three exoplanets have had their radii measured from transit events with their host stars: Gliese 436 b at 0.365 RJ,[4] 55 Cancri e at 0.178 RJ[5] and GJ 1214 b at 0.238 RJ.[6]

Inclusion criteria

Official status

There is no official organization that acknowledges reports for the existence of exoplanets, but the Working Group on Extrasolar Planets of the International Astronomical Union adopted in 2003 a working definition limiting the upper masses of exoplanets below that where thermonuclear fusion of deuterium occurs. This limit is calculated to be around 13 times the mass of Jupiter, and above it, an object is classified as a brown dwarf.[7]

Criteria for this list

For the purpose of this list, an exoplanet is regarded as unconfirmed when there is only a single (primary) report which presents its discovery, but there are no follow-up papers discussing their existence. There are a few examples where the existence of an exoplanet has been discussed in multiple papers, but there exists a minority of skeptics. For example, Alpha Centauri Bb has received criticism on the methods used to propose the existence of the planet.[8] Several reports of nearby exoplanets have been made but these proposals have been widely disproven since, as was the case for Teegarden's star[9] and VB 10.[10][11]

Partially measured planets

Usually, nearby exoplanets have been discovered by measuring the changes in the radial velocity of the host star, which allows for a precise estimate of their orbital parameters, but does not allow for an estimate of their orbital inclination (i). Because of this challenge, only 17 of the 66 exoplanets have their masses measured, while for the others, only their minimum masses (Mreal*sin(i)) are known. It is generally expected that most of these masses to be close to their true masses, as there is only about 13% chance for the mass of an exoplanet to be more than double its minimum mass.[12] However, there have been a few cases where planetary candidates were suggested but later refinement showed that these were more than 13 times more massive than Jupiter, and thus are likely brown dwarfs. This has been the case for WISE 0458+6434 B,[13] WISE 1217+16A B,[14] 2M 0746+20 B,[15][16] MOA-2008-BLG-379L B,[17] SDSS 141624 B,[18] and HD 104304 B.[19]

Rogue planets

There are known examples of potential free-floating sub-brown dwarfs, sometimes referred as "rogue planets", that are excluded from this list, such as WISE 0855–0714[20] and UGPS J072227.51-054031.2.[21]

Measurement uncertainties

Notable uncertainties exist for the distances measured for some stars. Because of this, some sources regard some stars as being within the 50 light-years (ly) threshold, but these stars were not included in the current list: Mu Arae (50.59 ly), 51 Pegasi (50.7 ly), Tau Boötis (50.9 ly).

Notes

  1. ^ Current list is compiled from the following databases:
    "The Extrasolar Planets Encyclopaedia".
    "Exoplanets Data Explorer".
    "Open Exoplanet Catalogue".
    "NASA Exoplanet Archive".
  2. ^ For reference, the 99th and 100th closest known star systems as of 2012, HR 8832 and LHS 3003 (Proxima Hydrae), are about 21 light-years away from the Solar System.[163]
  3. ^ According to the Bortle scale, an astronomical object visible to the naked eye under "typical" dark-sky conditions in a rural area if it has an apparent magnitude smaller than +6.5. To the unaided eye, the limiting magnitude is +7.6 to +8.0 under "excellent" dark-sky conditions (with effort).[161]
  4. ^ This recently-discovered exoplanet is regarded as unconfirmed as there is only a single (primary) report discussing its existence.
