Exoplanet Archivedata

HD 27631 is a star with an orbiting exoplanet in the southern constellation of Horologium. It is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.24.[2] The distance to this system is 164 light years based on parallax measurements. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 21 km/s.[1]

This is a G-type star with a stellar classification of G3IV,[2] suggesting it is a subgiant star that is evolving off the main sequence after exhausting the supply of hydrogen at its core. It is smaller than the Sun, with 94% of its mass and 92% of the radius.[2] The star is radiating 97%[3] of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,737 K.[2] The estimated age is roughly 4.4 billion years[5] and it is spinning slowly with a rotation period of around 31 days.[2]

A survey in 2015 has ruled out the existence of any stellar companions at projected distances above 40 astronomical units.[6]

Planetary system

From 1998 to 2012, the star was under observation from the CORALIE echelle spectrograph at La Silla Observatory. In 2012, a long-period, wide-orbiting exoplanet was deduced by radial velocity. This was published in November.[5] In 2023, the inclination and true mass of HD 27631 b were determined via astrometry.[7] This is a super-jovian planet with around 1.6 times the mass of Jupiter. It is orbiting the host star at a separation of 3.22 AU with an eccentricity (ovalness) of 0.16 and an orbital period of six years.
