HD 41004 Ab is an extrasolar planet approximately 139 light years away in the constellation of Pictor. It has mass 2.56 MJ planet orbiting at a distance of 1.70 AU from HD 41004 A. The planet's orbit is highly eccentric caused by the companion star HD 41004 B and the distance ranges from 0.44 to 2.96 astronomical units.
HD 216770 is an 8th-magnitude star located approximately 124 light-years away in the constellation of Piscis Austrinus. It is an orange dwarf, and is somewhat dimmer and cooler than the Sun.
HD 188753 is a hierarchical triple star system approximately 151 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus, the Swan. In 2005, an extrasolar planet was announced to be orbiting the primary star in the system. Follow-up measurements by an independent group in 2007 did not confirm the planet's existence.
HD 38529 is a binary star approximately 138 light-years away in the constellation of Orion.
HD 217107 b is an extrasolar planet approximately 65 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Pisces. The planet was discovered orbiting the star HD 217107 approximately every seven days, classifying the planet as a hot Jupiter. Because of the planet's somewhat eccentric orbit, scientists were able to confirm another planet within the system.
Gliese 777 b, also known as Gliese 777 Ab or HD 190360 b, is an extrasolar planet approximately 52 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus. The planet was discovered orbiting the primary star of the Gliese 777 system in June 2002 using the radial velocity method. The planet is at least one half more massive than Jupiter but roughly the same size as Jupiter. In 2021, the inclination of Gliese 777 Ab was measured via astrometry, allowing the true mass of 1.8 MJ to be determined.
HD 41004 is a visual binary star system in the southern constellation of Pictor. It is too faint to be visible to the naked eye, having a combined apparent visual magnitude of 8.65. The two components have a magnitude difference of 3.7, and share a common proper motion with an angular separation of 0.30″, as of 2018. The distance to this system is approximately 136 light years based on parallax. It is drifting further away from the Sun with a radial velocity of +42.5 km/s, having come to within 44.5 ly some 831,000 years ago.
HD 216770 b is an extrasolar planet orbiting the star HD 216770. It has a mass about two thirds that of Jupiter, largest planet in the Solar System. But unlike the gas giants in the Solar System, it orbits in a very eccentric orbit around the star. The mean distance from the star is slightly larger than Mercury's, and it completes one orbit around the star in every 118 days.
HD 111232 b is an extrasolar planet that orbits at almost 2 AU with a minimum mass of 6.8 times that of Jupiter. This planet was discovered in the La Silla Observatory by Michel Mayor using the CORALIE spectrograph on 30 June 2003, along with six other planets, including HD 41004 Ab, HD 65216 b, HD 169830 c, HD 216770 b, HD 10647 b, and HD 142415 b.
HD 89307 b is an exoplanet orbiting the star HD 89307 located approximately 104 light-years away in the constellation of Leo. The planet takes roughly 2164 days or 5.9 years to orbit its star. The planet's minimum mass is 1.92 MJ; initially, the true mass could not be determined since the inclination was unknown. As is common for many long-period exoplanets, the eccentricity is greater than any planets in the Solar System, orbiting at an average distance of 3.28 AU. The speed of the wobble caused by the planet's gravity is 31 meters per second. The average orbital velocity is 16.6 m/s. In 2023, the inclination and true mass of HD 89307 b were determined via astrometry.
HD 142415 b is an exoplanet with the semi-amplitude of 51.3 ± 2.3 m/s. This indicates the minimum mass of 1.69 Jupiter mass, an orbital period of 386.3 days, and the semi-major axis of 1.07 astronomical units based from its stellar mass. The wild, oval pathed wobble of the star used by Doppler spectrometer indicates that the orbit of the planet is highly eccentric at around 50%.
HD 181433 d is an extrasolar planet located approximately 87 light years away in the constellation of Pavo, orbiting the star HD 181433. This planet has a minimum mass of 0.54 Jupiter mass and takes 2172 days to orbit the star. The average orbital distance is 3.00 AU. At periastron distance, it will have distance from the star similar to Mars’ distance from the Sun at 1.56 AU. At apastron, the distance is 4.44 AU. These corresponds to the orbital eccentricity of 0.48.
HD 30562 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the F-type main sequence star HD 30562, located approximately 85.4 light years away in the constellation Eridanus.
HD 171238 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type main sequence star HD 171238, located approximately 164 light years away in the constellation Sagittarius. This planet has minimum mass two and a half times greater than Jupiter and orbits two times closer to the star than Jupiter to the Sun. However this planet orbits in an eccentric orbit, about two astronomical units difference between periastron and apastron distances. This planet was discovered in August 2009 by using the radial velocity method in La Silla Observatory, Chile.
HD 87883 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the K-type main sequence star HD 87883, located approximately 59 light years away in the constellation Leo Minor. It is a long-period planet, taking 8.23 years to orbit the star at the average distance of 3.77 AU. However, this planet orbits in a very eccentric path, which ranges distance from as close as 1.06 AU to as far as 6.48 AU. This planet was detected by the radial velocity method on August 13, 2009.
HD 34445 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type star HD 34445, located approximately 150.5 light years away in the constellation Orion. This planet was discovered in 2004 and finally confirmed in 2009. This planet has a minimum mass two-thirds that of Jupiter and orbits about 2 AU from the parent star. However this planet orbits in a very eccentric path. The planet's distance from the star ranges from 0.86 to 3.16 AU however it spends its full orbit within the star's habitable zone.
HD 126614 Ab, or simply HD 126614 b, is an extrasolar planet which orbits the primary K-type star HD 126614 A, located approximately 240 light years away in the constellation Virgo. It was discovered on November 13, 2009. However, this planet has a highly eccentric orbit around its parent star. The planetary distance ranges from 0.94 AU to 3.61 AU. HD 126614 A also has the highest metallicity of any star hosting any exoplanets, at +0.56 dex.
HD 13931 b is an extrasolar planet which orbits the G-type star HD 13931, located approximately 155 light years away in the constellation Andromeda. This planet takes 11.55 years to orbit the star at the average distance of 5.15 AU or 770 Gm. The planet's eccentricity (0.02) is about the same as Earth. The orbital distance for this planet ranges from 5.05 to 5.25 AU. This planet was discovered by using radial velocity method from spectrograph taken at Keck Observatory on November 13, 2009.
HD 86226 is a G-type yellowish white star found in the constellation of Hydra.
HD 200964 is a 7th magnitude star located approximately 237 light-years away in the constellation of Equuleus. It is a K-type subgiant with 44% more mass than the Sun, but cooler. At the age of 3 billion years, it indicates that it is an evolved A-type star. At a magnitude of 6.64, this star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye for most people, but binoculars would make it easy to see this star. Only people with a very clear eyesight and very dark sky can barely see this star.
The exoplanet naming convention is an extension of the system used for naming multiple-star systems as adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). For exoplanets orbiting a single star, the name is normally formed by taking the name of its parent star and adding a lowercase letter. A provisional IAU-sanctioned standard exists to accommodate the naming of planets that orbit two stars, which are known as circumbinary planets. A limited number of exoplanets have IAU-sanctioned proper names. Other naming systems exist.
