Kepler-337: A Super-Earth Pair in a Distant System

Kepler-337 is a star located 2210 light-years away, with two planets orbiting it. The star is 7.59 billion years old and has a reported mass estimate of 1.05 solar masses, which is larger than the Sun's mass. Its reported radius estimate of 1.38 solar radii is also larger than the Sun's, and its temperature is 5760 K.

Both planets were discovered by transit in 2014, meaning they were detected when they passed in front of their star and caused a small dip in observed brightness. Kepler-337 b is a Super-Earth with a radius of 1.54 Earth radii, larger than Earth's radius, and an orbital period of 3.29 days. Kepler-337 c is also a Super-Earth, with a radius of 2.05 Earth radii, which is larger than Earth's and the larger of the two planets' radii. Its orbital period is 9.69 days. Among the listed planets, Kepler-337 b has the shortest year and the smallest radius, while Kepler-337 c has the longest year and the largest radius.
