Exoplanet Archivedata

HD 86226 is a star with a pair of orbiting exoplanet companions, found in the constellation of Hydra. With an apparent visual magnitude of 7.93,[2] it is too dim to be visible with the naked eye. The distance to this system has been determined by the parallax method, yielding a range of 149 light years. It is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of +19.6 km/s.[4] A survey in 2015 has ruled out the existence of any stellar companions at projected distances above 12 astronomical units.[8]

This is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of G2V.[3] It is similar in size, mass, and composition to the Sun,[5] although it isn't considered a solar twin.[9] The age is about the same; roughly 4.6 billion years old. The star is radiating 18% greater luminosity (compared to the Sun) from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,863 K.[5] It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 3.6 km/s.[6]

As of 2014, Radio emission at a frequency of 150 MHz has been tentatively detected from the proximity of this system, although it is not clear whether the star or a satellite orbiting a rapidly rotating planet is the source.[10]

Planetary system[edit]

Due to the periodic spectrum shifts when it had when placed under a Doppler test, 13 Magellan Doppler Velocity observations were made of an object found near the star. The object discovered in 2010 had a Keplerian orbit, was declared an exoplanet and dubbed HD 86226 b.[11] A hot Super-Earth planet called HD 86226 c was discovered in 2020.[5] It may be undergoing considerable atmospheric mass loss.[12]
