KMT-2019-BLG-1552L b: A Microlensing Discovery

KMT-2019-BLG-1552L is a star located 15000 light-years away. The star has a mass of 0.79 solar masses, meaning its mass is 0.79 times that of the Sun. One planet has been found orbiting this host.

That planet, KMT-2019-BLG-1552L b, was discovered in 2022 by microlensing, a method that detects planets when their gravity briefly brightens a background star. Its reported mass estimate is 1290 Earth masses, roughly 4.05 times Jupiter's mass. This estimate is larger than Earth's. No orbital period is reported for KMT-2019-BLG-1552L b.
