HD 43691 and Its Planet
HD 43691 is a G0 star 279 light-years away with one known planet. The star's reported mass estimate is 1.32 solar masses and its reported radius estimate is 1.6 solar radii, both larger than the Sun's. Its temperature is 6090 K, hotter than the Sun's, and its age is 2.39 billion years.
The planet HD 43691 b was found in 2007 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion. It has a minimum mass of 810 Earth masses, larger than Earth's and roughly 2.55 times Jupiter's mass, and an orbital period of 37 days.
