The GJ 1148 System and Its Two Worlds

GJ 1148 is an M4 red dwarf, a small, cool star, located 35.9 light-years away. Two planets orbit this star. Its reported mass is 0.374 solar masses, its radius is 0.367 solar radii, and its temperature is 3360 K, all smaller or cooler than the corresponding values for the Sun.

Both planets were found by the radial velocity method, which detects the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. GJ 1148 b was discovered in 2010, and its minimum mass is 96.7 Earth masses, larger than Earth's, with an orbital period of 41.4 days, the shortest year among the listed planets. GJ 1148 c, discovered in 2017, has a minimum mass of 68.1 Earth masses, also larger than Earth's, and an orbital period of 533 days, the longest year among the listed planets. Among the two, GJ 1148 c has the smallest minimum mass, while GJ 1148 b has the largest.
