K2-395: A Nearby K-Type Star With Two Neptune-Like Planets
K2-395 is a K0 star located 935 light-years away. Its reported mass is 0.952 solar masses and its reported radius is 0.783 solar radii, smaller than the Sun's. The star's reported temperature of 5010 K is cooler than the Sun's. Two planets are known to orbit this host: K2-395 b and K2-395 c.
Both planets are Neptune-like and were discovered by transit in 2022. K2-395 b completes one orbit in 4.8 days and has a reported radius of 2.6 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. Among the listed planets, it has the shortest year and the smallest radius. K2-395 c orbits in 8.49 days, the longest year among the listed planets, and has a reported radius of 3.4 Earth radii, also larger than Earth's and the largest among the listed planets.
