WASP-83 is a star 884 light-years away with a spectral type of G8. Its reported mass is 1.11 solar masses and its reported radius is 1.05 solar radii; both are larger than the Sun's. The star's reported temperature is 5510 K, cooler than the Sun's, and its age is given as a reported lower limit of 5 billion years. One planet is known to orbit it.
That planet, WASP-83 b, was discovered by transit in 2015. It is Jupiter-like, with a radius of 11.7 Earth radii, larger than Earth's, and a mass of 95.3 Earth masses, also larger than Earth's. Its mean density is 0.332 g/cm³, 0.0602 times Earth's. WASP-83 b completes an orbit every 4.97 days.
