EPIC 229004835: A Distant Star With a Super-Earth
EPIC 229004835 is a star 398 light-years away with a mass of 0.97 solar masses and a radius of 0.999 solar radii. It is 4.9 billion years old, and its reported temperature of 5870 K is hotter than the Sun's. One planet is known to orbit this host.
The planet, EPIC 229004835 b, was discovered by transit in 2023, when it passed in front of its star from our viewpoint and caused a small dip in observed brightness. Repeated dips helped establish its orbital period of 16.1 days.
EPIC 229004835 b is classified as a Super-Earth, a size class that reaches 2.5 times Earth's radius. Its radius of 2.33 Earth radii is larger than Earth's, and its mass of 10.4 Earth masses is also larger than Earth's. The planet's mean density is 4.52 g/cm³, 0.82 times Earth's.
