HD 99109 is an orange-hued star with an exoplanetary companion in the constellation of Leo. It has an absolute visual magnitude of +9.10,[2] which is too faint to be visible to the naked eye. The distance to this system is 179 light-years based on parallax, and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +33 km/s.[1] The star is one and half degrees away from the celestial equator to the south.

The stellar classification of this star is G8/K0IV,[3] matching a late G or early K-type subgiant star. It appears to be past the end of its main sequence lifetime, having exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core.[7] The star is 93% as massive as the Sun and has 90% of the Sun's radius.[5] It is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of ~2 km/s[6] and has over twice the abundance of iron relative to hydrogen than the Sun. The star is radiating 56% of the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,270 K.[5] As of 2006, one extrasolar planet has been confirmed to be orbiting the star.[6]

The star HD 99109 is named Shama. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Pakistan, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Shama is an Urdu literary term meaning a small lamp or flame. The exoplanet companion is called Perwana, meaning 'moth' in Urdu, alluding to the eternal love of an object circling a source of light.[9][10]

Planetary system[edit]

The planet HD 99109 b has an orbit comparable in eccentricity to the planet Mars in the Solar System but has a mass at least half that of Jupiter. Stability analysis reveals that Earth-size planets could have stable orbits in the planet's Trojan points, located 60 degrees ahead and behind the planet's position in its orbit.[7]
