HD 114082 and Its Jupiter-Like Planet

HD 114082 is a star 311 light-years away with a single known planet in its system. The host is an F3 V star - an F-type main-sequence dwarf - and it is very young, with an age of 0.015 billion years. Its reported mass estimate is 1.47 solar masses, its reported radius estimate is 1.49 solar radii, and its reported temperature is 6650 K. Each of these estimates is larger or hotter than the corresponding value for the Sun.

The one known planet is HD 114082 b, a Jupiter-like world discovered by transit in 2022. A transit occurs when a planet passes in front of its star from our viewpoint, causing a small dip in observed brightness; repeated dips help establish orbital periods. The planet's orbital period is 226 days, and its reported radius estimate is 11.7 Earth radii, larger than Earth's. Its mass is given as a reported upper limit of 508.5254512 Earth masses. The Jupiter-like class describes a radius exceeding four times Earth's radius, not the planet's composition.
