HD 62549 b: A Massive Planet Orbiting HD 62549

HD 62549 is a star 161 light-years from Earth, and one planet has been detected in orbit around it. The host star contains 1.08 solar masses and has a radius of 1.23 solar radii, making it slightly larger than the Sun. Its temperature of 5930 K is also hotter than the Sun's.

The sole known planet, HD 62549 b, was discovered in 2022 using the radial velocity method, which detects the gravitational wobble a planet induces in its star's motion. Its reported mass estimate is 2710 Earth masses, roughly 8.52 times Jupiter's mass, and considerably larger than Earth's. HD 62549 b completes one orbit in 14300 days.
