TIC 231949697 is a star located 164 light-years away, with a mass of 0.491 solar masses and a radius of 0.493 solar radii. Its temperature is 3700 K. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet, TIC 231949697 b, is classified as a Super-Earth, meaning its radius falls within a size range that reaches up to 2.5 times Earth's radius. Its radius is 1.53 Earth radii, which is larger than Earth's. The planet completes an orbit in 0.907 days.
TIC 231949697 b was discovered by the transit method, in which a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint and causes a small dip in observed brightness; repeated dips help establish orbital periods. The discovery was reported in 2026.
The star's reported mass and radius estimates are smaller than the Sun's, and its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
