HD 206610 and Its Planet
HD 206610 is a K0 III star 480 light-years away, with a reported age of 3.08 billion years. Its mass is 1.43 solar masses, its radius is 4.59 solar radii, and its temperature is 4820 K. The star's reported mass and radius estimates are larger than the Sun's, while its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's. One planet orbits this host.
That planet, HD 206610 b, was discovered in 2009 using the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion; repeated wobbles reveal the planet and its orbital period. HD 206610 b has a minimum mass of 647 Earth masses and an orbital period of 673 days. Its minimum mass is larger than Earth's and roughly 2.04 times Jupiter's mass.
